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. To keep gaining strength and losing fat.

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 a stronger community. We are much less worried about being good at the sport of CrossFit.

For Time:

50 Burpee Box Jumps 24/20"

Since the first piece today was a long one, I thought this would be perfect. It's also going to be a hell of a chest finisher in addition to jacking your heart rate up!

Friday

Inthegym

Today's piece is all about having a long mix of cardio mixed with an emphasis of shoulder to overhead. So you will notice the hang clean numbers going down and the push press numbers going up. However, as you go through this sequence, you still have quite a bit of work to do for each section. Can you hang!?

 

EMOM x 4min.

Odd: 15/12 Cal Row

Even: 50 Double Unders

 

EMOM x 4min.

Odd: 3 Hang Power Cleans + 3 Push Press

Even: 18 Ballslam

No rest between sections above. Essentially, each section is 2 rounds and then you move to the next. This entire piece is 24min.

 

Score is the final push press weight. BUT... You can only put your score in if you finished all the above EMOMs :)
