"Using whiteboards as scoreboards, keeping accurate scores and records, running a clock, and precisely defining the rules and standards for performance, we not only motivate unprecedented output but derive both relative and absolute metrics at every workout; this data has value well beyond motivation." CrossFit is defined as "constantly varied functional movement executed at high intensity." Each aspect of this definition is measurable. Fitness is defined as "work capacity across broad time and modal domains." These are also measurable. "Fitness" and "CrossFit" are also both observable and repeatable. Clients become "gym scientists" by using these definitions. We can create a culture following results and best practices based on measurable, observable, and repeatable data. The accountability that grows from this honest reporting is unmatched in any other fitness regimen.
We can use tools to keep data regularly. Food journals, performance comments, and overall "daily feelings" help keep this data accurate. When looking back we can compare results from a factual and scientific standpoint. Keeping journals of this data can also help predict trends, including trends affecting sleep, nutrition, and overall "feelings" during the day. Goals can be built from this data, and strategies can improve our weaknesses. In CrossFit, we regularly collect fitness data, but that data only accounts for one hour (4%) of our day. Keeping excellent records in many aspects of life can improve our actual progress by providing factual data points, which can be self-motivating and inspiring to others. In the event of injuries, records can be reviewed to identify trends leading toward that injury. Journaling is a great way to keep track of exercises that cause pain or flare-ups for athletes who already have injuries. This can be easily referenced and creates a clear line of communication for athletes and trainers. Keeping track is part of longevity in CrossFit, and can be applied outside the gym to daily activities, too.

Workout of the day(4 rounds) 5 3-minutes rounds of: (2-minutes) (7) 10 push presses (shoulder press, double-dip push presses) max strict pull-ups, descending weight each round (ring rows, band assisted pull-ups) Rest 2-minutes between rounds W: 105lb push press, 25lb-20lb-15lb-10lb-5lb pull-ups M: 155lb push press, 35lb-30lb-25lb-20lb-15lb pull-ups Upper-body day! The push presses are moderate to heavy. Choose a load that you can do 10 reps or more of unbroken when fresh, and expect this to have to be broken up into a few sets during this workout. The 2-minute rest will help with the fatigue from stamina. Really focus on the timing of the drive to save the arms as much as possible during the push presses. The pull-ups are very challenging. Ideally with a decreasing load the reps and volume will be able to be sustained across each round. Scale to a pulling exercise that can be maintained for 5+ reps at a time. If you use bands for assistance start with more assistance than you normally use and work towards less and less assistance if possible. Workout at home3 rounds of:

Workout of the day(10-12-minutes) Complete as many rounds as possible in 15-minutes of: (7) 10 wall-ball shots (shorter target, lighter ball, thrusters) (7) 10 toes-to-bar (hanging straight leg raises, hanging knee tucks) (7) 10 box jumps (step-ups, broad jumps) W: 14lb ball to 9ft target, 20in box M: 20lb ball to 10ft target, 24in box Todays workout is a triplet for conditioning. There is an even amount of movement variation here with a squat + push, pull + torso flexion, and hinge + jump/land. Coordination and stamina for newer athletes will be a limiter while intermediate and advanced athletes will have to pace and transition well to keep moving for a high score. It is often the case with triplets like this in an AMRAP style workout that athletes will be good at one exercise and less efficient at another. If this is you, make up ground where you can and mitigate the rest needed to push through the more challenging exercise. Workout at home15-minutes of:

Workout of the dayHang Squat Clean (Hang Power Clean + Front Squat) 3-3-3-3-3-3-3 reps (5-5-5-3-3-3 reps) This heavy day is working on olympic weightlifting. The start position is from the hang and will lend itself as usful day for newer athletes to practice receiving the bar in the bottom of a front squat position without the nuances of pulling from the ground and around the knee. If the timing for pulling under the bar is off, practicing a hang power clean + front squat variation is a good way to work on owning that position. Intermediate and advanced athletes should try to go as heavy as possible. This can be accomplished by building up in load across the sets or holding a load close to 70-80% of their clean weight for example. This workout can be replicated at home with dumbbells, water jugs, or a back pack with more reps per set as needed if the load is light. Focus on rapid extension of the hip followed by rapid flexion into the bottom of a squat. Substituting a challenging and explosive bodyweight exercise is also a great way to get more of conditioning workout in for today. Workout at home8 rounds for total reps of:

Workout of the day(14-minutes) Complete as many reps as possible in 21-minutes of: Each time you break a set of pull-ups, complete a run. From 0:00-7:00 run 400-meters. From 7:00-14:00 run 200-meters. From 14:00-21:00 run 100-meters. (200-meter) 400-meter run (Row, Ski) Max-rep strict pull-ups (Ring Rows, Leg Assisted Pull-ups) Then, (100-meter) 200-meter run (Row, Ski) Max-rep strict pull-ups (Ring Rows, Leg Assisted Pull-ups) Then, (50-meter) 100-meter run (Row, Ski) Max-rep strict pull-ups (Ring Rows, Leg Assisted Pull-ups) This workout is a couplet of fast monostructural sprints and strict upper-body pulling work. The runs start out longer when fresh and as the duration of the workout increase, every 7-minutes, the distance will decrease, hence allowing for more pull-ups. However, the pull-ups are strict and the total reps unbroken that can be done will likely fall off drastically as stamina and cardiovascular endurance are pushed. This is almost three separate 7-minute AMRAPS with the goal to get close to the same amount of pull-ups each round and no rest between rounds. Pace the run so that large sets can be completed on the pull-up bar. Newer athletes may even want to skip the first 7-minutes and perform the later two thirds of this workout as prescribed with plenty of pull-up practice before and after. If strict pull-ups are not an option today, consider ring rows, or strict leg assisted pull-ups. If at home without a pull-up bar, use two dumbbells or two water jugs for a double arm bent over row. Only count reps as long as the object meets the torso at the sides/ribs. Workout at homeComplete as many reps as possible in 14-minutes of:

Workout of the day(3-4 rounds) 5 rounds for time of: (5-10 reps)15 strict handstand push-ups (pike push-ups, seated dumbbell presses) (5-12 reps) 15 strict ring dips (dips, chair dips) (500-750m) 1000-meter row (run, ski) This workout is not for everyone. Anyone can do this workout if appropriately scaled to their level. The volume of strict pressing and overall distance of the row are both pretty moderate-high. If the row takes longer than 5-minute consider reducing the distance. Newer athletes should pick a version of push-up and dip that can be done unbroken for a round or maybe two and then small sets in the later rounds. Take a look at this article for push-up ideas. Athlete's who are getting stuck doing one or two reps at a time will benefit most from scaling the pushing exercise to keep the sets bigger or reduce the rounds to four or three to finish in a reasonable time. Even for intermediate and advanced athlete's, who can handle or manage these challenging sets, this workout is long. If at home a run of similar distance can sub the row. In the parenthesis is recommended scales for reps, distance, rounds, and possible exercise selections that will help in choosing an option that suits your needs. These scales can be mixed and matched as needed to work on your strength and weaknesses. Pick an option and stick with it through the whole workout. Workout at home5 rounds of:

Workout of the day3 rounds for time of: 500-meter row 21 hang power snatches W: 55lb M: 75lb Todays workout is a couplet with two similar exercises. The rows are short and should be close to a sprint. The snatches are moderate in volume but light in load and should be done close to unbroken in the early rounds or with one break as needed. These two exercises use a lot of similar muscle groups but in different ways. Expect a great cardio and stamina workout. Newer athlete's should reduce the reps of the snatches or load as needed. If the row takes longer than 3-minutes, consider reducing the distance as well. Sub a run for the row if at home without this equipment. A dumbbell, water-jug, or backpack is a great option at home for the snatches. More reps can be used if the load is light. At Home3 rounds of:

Workout of the dayMuscle snatch 1-1-1-1-1 reps Power snatch 1-1-1-1-1 reps Squat snatch 1-1-1-1-1 reps Today's workout is a heavy day focusing on olympic lifting. Each lift should be as heavy as possible. Each exercise increases in complexity and for advanced athlete's will allow for more load to be moved. Newer athlete's should stay light and focus on the timing of the legs jumping and the body pulling under the barbell. More reps can be used to practice each skill more with lighter loads.

Clean & Jerk 1-1-1-1-1-1-1 reps The clean and jerk are an Olympic Weightlifting movement that generates a significant amount of power. Keeping the midline tight and stable during these lifts is very important. Newer athletes should lighten the load and focus on the mechanics. Intermediate athletes should lift heavy but keep a very keen eye on the mechanics. This is an incredibly fun lift to perform - especially when performed really well!

Workout of the dayTodays workout is a heavy day. Overhead squat 3-3-3-3-3 reps The overhead squat is more demanding on position than overall strength. The mid-line stability, balance, and coordination involved in doing a sound squat with load overhead is close to unmatched by any other skill. Newer athletes should practice with a light load by keeping the bar over the center of the foot and shoulders actively pressing up through the bar and into the ceiling. Intermediate athletes will benefit from going heavy, possibly even holding the same load for a few sets before jumping up in load. ScalesOverhead squat, to a target 3-3-3-3-3 reps FoundationsBox squats with a pvc overhead

Complete as many rounds as possible in 10-minutes of: 10 calorie bike 10 strict handstand push-ups This workout combines a lower body monostructural exercise with a challenging upper body gymnastic pushing exercise. The bike will drive the heart rate up and demand more midline stability for the handstand push-ups. Overall stamina and endurance will be trained during this workout. Chose a pushing variation of the handstand push-ups that can be completed in a fews sets quickly. This is essentially testing to see how fast can you bike while still being able to perform small to moderate sets of a difficult gymnastic skill. Scaled10-minutes of: 10 calorie bike 5 strict handstand push-ups Foundations 10-minutes of:
10 calorie bike 5 pike handstand push-ups, feet on the floor. The at home options for this workout are to use a different form of monostructural exercise like running or rowing. If these options are not available, 30 steps-ups to a short box is a great sub that will not interfere with the push-ups and still raise the heart rate. Regular push-ups or kneeling push-ups are an awesome option for athletes who need to build base pushing strength, while athletes more ready to go upside down can place the feet on an elevated surface to increase difficulty if needed.
