#MAINLINEMONDAY; CFML’S HIGH POWERED OPEN GYM WORKOUT OF THE WEEK:

Today’s workout is programmed by nine-time CrossFit veteran and CrossFit Seminar Staff Flowmaster, James Hobart

21 Rounds for Time:

6 Deadlifts

5 Hang Power Cleans

4 Front Squats

3 Shoulder to Overhead

200ft Weighted Carry

Scaling Options:
•Scale the workout to a weight that allows you to complete multiple rounds unbroken. If you don’t have the space to carry, consider performing a :30 hold in place of the carries.
Advice From Our Coaches:
The first few rounds should feel fast and fun. The grip fatigue and volume quickly accumulate in this workout. Considering resting after the 5th deadlift, and then finishing the deadlifts as you bring the weight up to the first hang power cleans, front squat, and push presses. For the carries, holding the weights at the shoulders will likely to allow you to move the fastest and avoid resting.

#FEARLESSFRIDAY; CFML’S CALORIE TORCHING, MUSCLE BUILDING WORKOUT OF THE WEEK:

“ELIZA-PLUS” 

FOR TIME

27-21-15-9

Power Clean (135/95)|(95/65)

Ring Dip or HR Push-up

Advice from our coaches:
1. Choose a weight that you could complete 10 + repetitions unbroken of the Power Cleans.  Focus on setting up correctly for each set on this lift.  Moving well here will mean more energy and less fatigue.
2. For the gymnastics move: If we are reduced to singles in the set of 27 then we recommend scaling down the skill.  We can use a Deficit Push-Up, or a Hand Release Push-Up!

What To Eat Before and After Workouts
You’ve got a killer WOD coming up in a few hours… you’re ready to fuel up… but what should you eat to make sure you get a great workout in? It’s a common question, and RP has an answer for you.
EAT UP.

Your Turn Over for Ring Muscle Ups
Practicing your turn over for ring muscle ups can be tough because it’s rather difficult to practice them all the way up at the top of the rings. Use these progressions to master the turn over and dip out of your muscle ups.

How to Quit Bumping Cleans Forward
You’re pulling the barbell from the floor… you open your hips… suddenly the bar is way out in front of you and you are chasing it forward to catch it. What happened? Probably one of these common mistakes you didn’t know you were making!
JUMP DON’T BUMP.
