The Sixth Day (12.18.2010)

Training hours are from 9am-11am.

During this time slot our CrossFitters are welcome to come in and crush any WODs they might have missed during the week.
Saturdays will also have a heavy/max effort option for athletes that need practice or rep record data on various lifts. We just finished a strength cycle (Back Squat and Press) and some of us will need to test for new 1RM's. Other CrossFitters might not have any previous rep records or lift experience and should begin working to develop basic strength and proficiency. Come in and sling some steel.

We would like to see everyone that missed a max effort WOD for Bench Press or Overhead Squats come in and set some baseline records. The data generated from those heavy days is what will be used in conjunction with percentages for the next 21 day strength cycle.

In the future we will be posting this link with any training post that requires the use of percentages or 1-rep maximums. This way even if all you have is a sub-maximal rep record of 'x' reps at 'y' weight you will be able to project with a fair amount of accuracy what loads to use during the WOD.

''Tariff'' (12.16.2010)

''And on the sixth day... they went heavy.''
CFNH will now be posting an optional strength or power based WOD on Saturdays. The workout will be built into the programming complementary to our traditional training cycles allowing our athletes to spend an additional training day each week developing technical proficiency or going heavy. This strength day can also replace a weekday WOD as training 6 days in a row is not something we recommend.
The traditional Saturday open gym hours will remain intact for those athletes looking to make-up a WOD. If anyone is missing one rep maximum data on a particular lift (limiting the effectiveness of percentage based training) this would be a perfect time to come in and get back up to speed with the rest of the crew.

The Mobility WOD
This is a very potent and valuable resource for those athletes that have pre-existing mobility issues or experience some sort of impingement/pain that limits their performance during training. CFNH posts a link to the Mobility WOD site every day under our Skill Development section... Go explore this daily!
Chances are if you have a nagging injury or mobility issue it's already been addressed and explained with any potential solutions offered (in video format!).
Keep in mind that we only get see you for a short time each day, it's what you do outside of the actual WOD that ends up determining whether you will realize your true potential for elite fitness or not.

''Heavy Presses 5-3-1+ and Hangman'' (12.09.2010)

Thank you to our dedicated family of CrossFitters... Your daily toils and contributions to this amazing community is what has made the renovations and equipment expansion at CrossFit New Hampshire possible.

Time to break in all the new toys... GET SOME.

-Scorpion Stretch

''Heavy Presses 5-3-1+'' (12.09.2010)
Work through the following sets of Presses using the percentages outlined below. Novice level lifters should multiply their single repetition Press maximum by .9 and use the resulting number to determining loads.
On the last set the '+' means athletes may attempt to exceed the prescribed number of repetitions if possible.

5 x 40% (warm-up)

''Hangman'' (12.09.2010)
3 Rounds for time of
400m Run
3 x Rope Climb Ascents (or 30 x Pull-ups)
21 x KB Swings (32/24kg)

Notes: Feeling Frisky again? Body armor up (20lbs) and go to town like a spurned lover. Rope climbs begin from the sitting position and require securing the feet (safety) once each athlete's body is completely off the deck. Don't fret, legless rope climbing will be appearing in abundance once our crew proves they won't fall to their doom.
