Conditioning
Double-metcon day!

Metcon 1:
8 min AMReAP of presses, 115#/73#
Each time you break, do 50 double-unders. A break is any rest in a position other than the locked-out, overhead position (e.g., resting the bar on your shoulders would constitute a break).

Metcon 2:
8 min AMReAP of hang power cleans, 205#/133#
Each time you break, do 30 squats. A break is any rest in a position other than having the bar hanging in your hands (e.g., resting the bar on your shoulders would constitute a break).

We will split into two groups for these metcons. Group A will perform Metcon 1 while group B counts reps, then Group B will perform Metcon 1 while Group A counts reps. We will then repeat this two-stage process for Metcon 2. (Courtesy of CrossFit.com)


Finale
Mob your shoulders for at least 2:00/arm.

For your edification and reading pleasure:
Mid-foot Balance: A "Master Cue"
by CJ Gotcher (from Starting Strength)


Conditioning
Tabata Mash-up 3:
Box Jumps, 30"/24"
Push-ups
Front Squats, 115#/78#

Rest 1 minute between movements.

"Tabata" refers to 0:20 of work followed by 0:10 of rest, for eight rounds (total of four minutes). Score only your lowest number of reps per exercise. You can start this workout at any station - for instance, if we have 15 people, 5 will start on box jumps, 5 will start on push-ups, and 5 will start on front squats.


Finale
Accumulate 2:00 on your hands (handstand, handstand walking, L-sit, etc.). While resting, be sure to get some mobility work done.


Thursday 2015.12.31 - class at 3:00 p.m.

Reminder: As today is New Year's Eve, class is at 3:00 p.m. to provide more evening time for the various evening festivities that people have. Much like the Christmas Eve class, the evening will will have an open gym format with a fun conditioning component in the last 10-15 minutes to send the old year out in style! Want to know what the conditioning is? Just like Christmas Eve . . . come and find out!

Wednesday 2015.05.06 - NO CLASS

No class tonight - we'll see you all tomorrow!

Wednesday's Barbell Group - still on!

Concordia was closed today, but we still have Barbell Group this evening, so come on out, you BBGers, and get your lift on! Be sure to park in the main lot (it's a bit rough, but it's passable) and enter through the south doors (i.e., the main doors).

Monday's class - it's on like Donkey Kong!

Monday night's class is on! The parking lot is plowed, so you'll want to park there and enter through the south doors (i.e., the building's main entrance). We hope to see you tonight, but drive carefully!

Monday 2015.02.02

Update: Monday's class will happen! (see the more recent post above this one)

Weather and Testify news: Concordia has called school off for Monday, and Testify's policy is to cancel whenever Concordia cancels. With that said, check back here throughout the day on Monday. If it is possible for us to have class, we'll post to that effect by 5:00 p.m. on Monday.
