9/9/13 Week of Programming

Art in the new gym

After a tough week we are back to regular schedule and excited to get back to training! This week we’re kicking off a new cycle. The lower body lift will be the deadlift and for the upper body lift we’re combining max dead hang (no kipping) pullups with military press.

A couple notes, remember when you’re establishing your training 1RM maxes for your lifts, these are not a true all out 1RM. This will happen at the end of the cycle. Just work your way up to a heavy 1RM and use that number to base your percentages off of for the rest of the cycle. We will really go for PRs at the END of the cycle.

When it comes time to test on your pullups and you can’t bang out one without a band, no problem. Just choose the band strength where you can get at least 3 pullups.

Finally, beginning this Friday we’re introducing SEALFIT Fridays. This is a day dedicated to training to the upcoming 20X Challenge being hosted at PSKC. If you’re going to participate you must complete in the workouts wearing your BDU pants and boots. This way your boots will be broken in and you’re used to training in your gear. We will also start rucking.

Here’s this week’s programming. We had to move some things around in order to do a special 9/11 Memorial workout.

Nothing like helping a good friend live his dream

This past weekend PSKC was all over the place! We sent a crew up to Bayonet CrossFit to help our brother open up his affiliate. We then had another crew down in Tennesee participating in the Outlaw Camp. And finally another crew was up in Cleveland rooting on Jeremy at his bodybuilding show.

We like to stay on the move and stay busy. Now that the weather is finally warming up we’re kicking it into full swing. Here’s a list of the upcoming Spring events we’ve got going down.

April 13/14 – CrossFit Competition at CrossFit Thunder in Huntington

April 20 – PSKC/USMC function. We need your volunteer support for this! We’re expecting a fairly large crowd because it will be a combined USMC and PHS football team event. So we will need as many folks as possible to help run stations.
Also on the same day we’ve got a group of folks heading up to Reynoldsburg to compete at the CFR Spring Games!

April 27th – Tactical Strength Challenge at the gym. We’re hosting this cool little event consisting of max deadlift, max strict pullups, and max kettlebell snatches in 5 minutes. No cost!

May 25th – last day to register for the Gauntlet! We are at close to 50% capacity now!

June 15th – GAUNTLET!

Also, don’t forget we are one month away from implementing the new rates. For current members all you’ll need to do is sign a 12-month contract to locked in at your current rates. As long as you sign up before May 5th we’ll lock you into our current rates. But that means you’ve got to make the decision to commit NOW. We don’t have that many beginners programs left, so you need to email dale@www.pskccrossfit.com to get signed up! Do not miss out on a phenomenal deal.

This Weekend’s Schedule

We’ve got another packed weekend! Here’s the agenda..

Friday:
0900 Regular class. If you need to be judged for 13.3 see a coach during this timeslot.
530pm- The regular class will start 13.3. Then those folks who have registered for the Open, we will start doing heats of 4-5 folks as soon as the class is over. Also, if there’s any folks in the area who need to be judged come on down!

Standards: You either are performing the movement to the standard (good rep) or you’re not (no rep). Be familiar with the movements and the standards, we will always brief the group beforehand, but it’s your responsibility to know them. Your judges job is not coach you, but to ensure the movements are being performed correctly. If you’re not doing the movement correctly you’re gonna get “no repped”.

Also, we won’t tolerate cry babies or whining about being no repped. I know how things get when you’re having a near death experience due to a shit ton of wall balls, especially being on 149 then hearing…”no rep”…”no rep”. If you wanna freak out and lose your cool then you’ll be asked to go elsewhere. Remember this is supposed to be fun.

Saturday:
0900 – BRING A FRIEND PAIN CLINIC! If you’ve got a buddy who hasn’t been to the gym before. Bring them in for free and let them get an experience of PSKC Crossfit. Shoot dale@www.pskccrossfit.com an email if you’re planning on bringing someone.
1000 – PHS Football team training.

Finally, the Gauntlet III registration page is live! Click HERE to get signed up and reserve your slot!

See you all this weekend!

Sunday – Open Gym (check the Facebook page to see the time each week)

*We anticipate adding back the 9am classes on Tues/Thurs in the Spring. If the demand grows we will add more 6am classes in the future. So now is the time to become a founding member of the dawn patrol!
*We have changed our Olympic lifting program. We are now offering that as an option during the main lift of the day 1-2 times a week. Also, don’t forget to use the open gym periods to work on your lift as well. For example, if the main lift for the day is front squat if you have completed an Olympic lifting intro course, you now have the option to work your squat cleans during the skill/lift portion. If you’re interested in learning the Olympic lifts, email zak@www.pskccrossfit.com to schedule your Olympic Lifting intro!

NEW STRENGTH PROGRAMMING:
Secondly, starting January 7th we will incorporate the following 6 week strength cycle/template during the Tues/Thurs classes.

For the first cycle the lower body lift will be the back squat, and the upper body lift will be the strict military press. As we always do, after the lifting portion is complete we will end in a conditioning workout

Week 1 – work technique and establish 1RM. Some of you are comfortable enough to go for a true 1 rep max (1RM), some of you may not be. No problem, you can calculate your 1RM based on a 2/3/4/5 rep max. For example, if someone’s 5RM on backsquat is 200lbs, their estimated 1RM is approximately 225. (Use this link for a 1RM calculator) So you would use 225 to base your numbers for the lifts.

Week 2 – 5 x 5 (5 sets of 5 reps) at 60% of 1RM. Using example above of a 225 max, the individual would do 5 x 5 at 135. (225 x .6 = 135)
Week 3 – 4 x 4 at 70% (e.g. 4 x 4 at 160)

Week 4 – 5 x 3 at 80% (e.g. 5 x 3 at 180)

Week 5 – 3 x 2 at 90% (e.g. 3 x 2 at 205)

Week 6 – Test out for new maxes

Week 7 – deload – no lifting

Week 8 – starts new cycle of different upper and lower body lifts

NOTES: This will require effort on your behalf. You will need to make a dedicated effort to be at the gym next Tuesday and Thursday to establish your numbers for the program. If you cannot make a Tues/Thurs class, get with a coach and make up your lifts during an open gym period.

You will also need to TRACK your numbers. You can use your phone, use wodstack, Facebook, whatever, USE SOMETHING. The following conversation should NEVER take place:

Coach: “Today is 4×4 at 70% of your max. Get your phone/calculator and set your bar up”

Member: “I forgot my max.” or “I don’t know my numbers” or “I didn’t max” or my all time favorite “Hey, John/Jane how much are you lifting? I ‘ll just do that”

If any of the above answers are given, our response will just simply be

“GET ON THE AIRDYNE”. Don’t be that guy…

We are going this route because we want a more dedicated system for strength training so you can see how much progress you’re making. Don’t worry the conditioning workouts won’t change; you’ll still get the same nasty variety of 3-30 minutes of the brutal master you so love.

Looking forward to a new year of awesomeness and getting the new classes and programming up and running!

Don’t forget this Saturday is “Share the Misery” Pain Clinic. Bring a friend for free! If you have someone that will be coming, show up at 845am and shoot me an email (dale@www.pskccrossfit.com) so I can plan for a rough number of folks.

We wanna give some special thanks for making these shirts happen. The one pulling the strings on this was our very own Muscle Hamster (aka Sara). It was her slogan and her design. More importantly it was the wonderful company she works for APPALACHIAN WOOD FLOORS, that donated money to cover the cost of the shirts being made. That way every single cent from these shirts goes towards the Battling for Boston fund.
