HERE'S A FUN LITTLE STRENGTH-BASED METCON FOR YOU GUYS. TAKING GENERAL WEAKNESSES AND PERFORMING THEM IN SHORT REP SCHEMES CAN REALLY BE THE BEST BET TO KICK YOU OVER A PLATEAU. GET IT DONE GUYS. CHRIS JONES IS IN THIS AM AND I'LL BE IN THIS AFTERNOON.


METCON:

20 MIN AMRAP:

1 CLEAN AND JERK 185#/115#
2 DEADLIFTS 185#/115#
3 HANDSTAND PUSHUPS
4 BOX JUMPS 24/20"


P.S. IF YOU ARE  GEARING UP FOR THE NEW LONDON THROWDOWN, NOW IS THE TIME OF THE WEEK TO START CHILLING OUT ON THE INTENSITY OF YOUR WORKOUTS. CONCENTRATE ON LIGHT STRENGTH THAT'LL RELEASE POSITIVE HORMONES LIKE 4X10 OF A,B,C,D... ALSO, TUNE UP THOSE SKILLS THAT'LL BE NEEDED LIKE YOUR BUTTERFLY/KIPPING PULLUP, DOUBLE UNDERS, AND SNATCH.

I WANT TO HIGHLIGHT ANOTHER HUGE ACCOMPLISHMENT OF SOME OF OUR CROSSFIT GROTON BOYS... BEN CONSTANT, KIRK BAILEY (MY BEASTLY COUSIN), AND SAM CASEY WILL BE HEADED TO JERSEY SATURDAY TO COMPETE WITH NEW LONDON RUGBY IN THE RUGBY PLAYOFFS! THIS JUST A FEW WEEKS AFTER WINNING THE NEW ENGLAND DIVISION CHAMPIONSHIPS. JUST AS IMPRESSIVE WAS THE FACT THAT THESE GUYS WENT 7-0 ON THE SEASON. THIS MORNING'S TRAINING CHRIS JONES ALSO HAD AN INCREDIBLE SEASON WITH EASTERN CT RUGBY AND FINISHED THE SEASON WITH A BIG WIN AGAINST TRINITY. CONGRATS BOYS!
