Football is Back

Saturday TO23: 5 Burpees

Sunday TO23: 15 Sit Ups

Anyone who has been at this gym for a while will know about and remember our Football Workout. This is usually a really fun day for everyone. You will be given a scorecard that will have a list of exercises on it and each exercise will be awarded a value that is measured in Yards. Your scorecard will also have a bunch of football fields on it. The goal is to travel 100 yds in order to score a touchdown. Ex. 100 m Row = 10 Yds, 20 Box Jumps = 25 Yds, 5 Deadlifts = 15 Yds. Taht combination would put me at the 60 yard line. Continue until you score a touchdown, mark your scorecard and then go for another. We will play a 15 min. Quarter, or as many Quarters as you want to. Anyone up for a whole game?

Anyone who has done this before please join into the comments and post your thoughts and memories. This should be a really fun day.

Every Hour on the Hour

Here is the September Challenge:

We are going to start to bring out fitness into the other 23 hours of the day. Every day I will list an exercise and a rep count to go along with it. The goal is that throughout the course of your day, every hour on the hour you will perform the required # of reps of that exercise. I know that there will be days and times where you can’t just drop down and do push ups in an important meeting, when that is the case keep track of what you owe and do them asap. Please don’t make a habit of saving these up to do at one time, that defeats the purpose of the challenge. I will try to keep the weekday exercises office appropriate. I am only requiring that we do the reps for the hours you are awake…don’t get out of bed at 3:00 am to do them, but if you are so inclined to make up for your sleeping reps in the am before your shower I won’t argue.

TO23: 5 Push Ups

400 m Run
30 KB Swings 53/35

Warm Up 8/30 – 9/5

I am going to post the warm up for this week but I’d also like to post a great link to Kelly Starett’s Mobility WOD Blog. Kelly is a PT and is the owner of CrossFit San Francisco.

I strongly encourage everyone to start following his stretching and Mobility workouts.  MobilityWOD
