We do strength and conditioning. We do crossfit. An evolved version. A better crossfit. Meaning we do exercises that use our bodies instead of machines. We do those exercises, as hard as possible, and it changes daily to keep your body growing.
Simple, hard, and effective are the three principles that guide the decisions made. Variety for the sake of variety is not. And the program is modified to each and every individual, individually.
We use crossfit to better the lives of the people of Elk Grove. To make better humans, better parents, and stronger community And much less worried about being good at the sport of CrossFit.

Thursday

5 rack pulls
45m sb carry
10 Rounds For Time:
3 DOUBLE DB Hang Cleans
4 DOUBLE DB Snatches (From the ground)

6 DOUBLE DB Push Press
This is a lot harder than it looks! I suggest trying as hard as you can to get each round completely unbroken before you take a rest break. It's made in this order purposely to flow perfectly from one movement to the next. When you break in the middle of a round, you'll be doing more work to get back to where you left off.
