We do crossfit. Meaning we do exercise that uses our bodies instead of machines. We do those exercises at high intensity, 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.
Here is what is happening this week with options for in gym workouts and at home workouts.

*Get each round done as fast as possible. This is not just a get it done type of EMOM. You are going to have a lot of rest each time, but I need you to earn it and try to stay within 10-20sec. of each round at the highest intensity possible.

NO REST between sections. If you have the time to finish it great, if not just stop at 20min. I typically try not to make stuff longer than 20 on this program.
NO weights needed today, but if you wanna spice it up, you can add some for the lunges. LIGHT though. Maybe 25 for men and 10-15s for women.
Tuesday
Inthegym
Hang Power Snatch
3 reps EMOM x 3min.
2 reps EMOM x 3min.
1 rep EMOM x 5min.
*Start with something around 50-60% effort and build whenever you feel comfortable. Ideally, you would keep the same weight for the 3s and 2s and then make bigger jumps on the singles at the end.
*Today is a great day to focus on form, especially because it's from the hang and there's multiple reps. Be sure to keep your shoulders OVER the bar as you hinge forward into your hang position. You should feel tension on the hamstrings if you do it right.
*Beginners: Just stay between 3-5 reps the entire time and work on getting that bar to brush your hips each time.
