WORKOUT OF THE DAY

Wednesday 220427 Press, Push Press, Push Jerk

Ready for all 3 presses from the pressing series in 1 heavy day?! Today, you will have roughly 10 minutes at each station to build to a heavy set of 1, 2, and 3 respectively. Doing a set on the 3-4 minute mark will ensure you get all the reps in without rushing. Each left gets more technically difficult as you go, but… as you go from press, to push press, to push jerk, you’ll also be able to lift more due to the added power (and for the jerk, added drop under the bar) from the hips. An experienced lifter may only have to take a few kilos, if any, off the bar between set #4 and set #1 of the following lift, while others may need to decrease the load between movements a bit more in order to drill the technique.

Workout of the Day:
Shoulder Press
1-1-1-1
Push Press
2-2-2-2
Push Jerk
3-3-3-3

Wednesday 220420 Sumo Deadlift 5×10

Congrats to Nick as his screenplay “Escape from Virtue” won best screenplay at the International BrightLight Film Festival! Nick was introduced to The Hut by his cousin Dane and has put in some serious work over the last few months. He embodies the part of the CrossFit methodology that is key to what makes The Hut, The Hut: Mechanics first, consistency second, and intensity third. He strives to improve his mechanics in each and every class, the intensity soon followed, and it shows! You can typically catch him in the 10am or 5pm class, and you’ll find his name up on the PR board a few times each month. Once again, congrats on the award, Nick! We’re glad to have you at CFM.

Tuesday 220419 4 Very Different Tests

It’s test day! The fun kind of test day. There are 4 very different tests for you to complete today. Each station will be 6-8 minutes long. So, after you’re 2 min max push-up test you’ll have a nice long rest before your 3 attempts at a max duration handstand hold. You’ll scale to something that allows you to hold for at least 30 seconds. Then, you’ll grab 2 heavy KBs and make as many laps as possible around the hut without setting the bells down. You only get one shot at this test so hold on as long as possible and give every once of grip strength you have! Lastly (after another long rest), you’ll sprint 0.6 miles on the bike. Most of you know how this feels and, well… that’s exactly why it’s the last test!!!

4 tests (roughly 8 minutes to complete each station):
1. Max rep ACFT push-up in 2 minutes
2. 3 attempts at a max duration handstand hold
3. Max distance double KB farmer carry (24/18kg)*
4. 0.6 mile bike for time
*farmer carry course is around the hut (100m/lap)

Post all 4 scores in SugarWOD
