*Programming Note*

Tomorrow is the start of a new 5 week cycle.  Our program is centered around the CrossFit Games season and we are now in the “late off-season.”  We will be moving away from hypertrophy work and towards more max strength work.  Think smaller rep ranges and heavier weights.  Olympic lifting will start to add more stress under fatigue.  Can you move the barbell efficiently when you are tired?  The gymnastics work will include more dynamic movements.  The conditioning will start to include higher repetition work.  In addition, if you own a heart rate monitor, you will have the opportunity to work with it.  We will be providing you with heart rate ranges to shoot for while performing the conditioning.  If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to ask one of your coaches.
