MASTERS & REGIONAL ATHLETES
Open 13.2
Your warm up should be yesterday's training. General warm-up followed by Movement Prep. Then warm up to the working weight while intermixing Box Jumps or Steps ups.

So general question in regards to the programming... I have a legitimate ZERO chance to make it to regionals this year, and slim to none next year. HOWEVER, I know what my weaknesses are.
ReplyDeleteOne of the biggest issue I face on RX'ing any workout or even doing well is strength. I spent entirely too long today staring at the damn bar before I could do more S2O (13.2). SO, at 5'9" and 165#, I've decided to put on some weight.
I plan on waiting until after the open is complete, but during the "regionals prep" time, should I stick with the program here, or do a linear strength for 3 months until we get back to the "gonna get hayuge" stage?
I'd much more enjoy sticking with the programming here, because I thoroughly enjoy it more than any other programming I've done in the past 2.5 years. Just kind of getting a feelers on everyones thoughts on that. Hopefully I made sense. I'm a bit of a rambling mess today.
After the open I would say take the time to work on weaknesses. Being that it is strength, work on gettif stronger. A good program like this can carry you so far, you have to go the extra mile to do what is necessary to make sure you kill your own goats!

DeleteBritt, I was listening to their podcast about that, it's what got me thinking about/considering it. I had no idea it was $100 a month though!
DeleteWhoa! I didnt even look at the price, just copied the link and pasted it. Yea I heard it on the podcast too, I love those guys but man theyre gonna make a killing on that!
DeleteWhat's up guys. Just thought I would say that this programming from Coach B is bad ass. I have been doing some of the training here and there for about a month. I haven't posted to much, but that changes today. I have decide that this is now my programming from now on. There is some high quality athletes following this and its fun to see how people do with this. I have been doing CrossFit for about 6 months and couldn't be more addicted. 13.1 went decent for me with 158... I suck at burpees haha. Doing 13.2 on Sunday and will post about that later. Good luck to everyone and I look forward to being apart of this community! Is anyone else training out of Las Vegas?
ReplyDeleteWelcome!
DeleteThanks!
DeleteHad to abort the 13.2 redo. Mobilized this whole morning, but knee a bit stiff. I think I would've done more harm than good.
ReplyDeleteQuite tough to forego, but told myself "There are 3 more battles ahead. 'Win' those and its done."
Happy with Thursdays attempt, so no 13.2 for me. Good luck to all who are going after it again!
