Claude -
Yes - Deadlift exactly how you'd lift a snatch but without the speed and additional ankle extension/shrug. |

Gotta say Aimee does not look too happy in the DB situp pic!
I think I know the answer, but I am asking anyway. I am not meeting my coach tomorrow and dont have a place to lift (just a regular gym or CFNYC), would it be crazy to go to CFNYC and do Fran? MY main concern is that I have a meet 2 weeks from today and have truthfully done no metcon for months now.
If (I assume) the answer is no, any thoughts on what I can do in a regular gym that will not be counterproductive? Thanks

If only I could find a bar or bumpers tomorrow that would make that possible Greg!
Can I work with DBs? I could FS, DL (1hand or 2) and PP with 2 DBs! |

You can't even find a bar and iron plates! What kind of gym are you planning on going to? Curves? |

Weak. Do some DB snatches, cleans and jerks, and then go do some contrast hydrotherapy in the pool and jacuzzi. |

Hey all, I've just started lurking around the Catalyst Athletics site and I have a question about how today's should be completed. Do you complete all sets of each exercise before moving on to the next exercise? How much rest between sets?
Please let me know if this kind of stuff is posted somewhere. I didn't see it in the WOD info page. Thanks. |

John -
Yes, the strength work should be performed as such - each exercise independently with as much rest between sets and exercises as you feel necessary (2-4 min or so). The metCons that appear are done in the CF style of rounds for time and noted accordingly. |

Hi Greg,
I've run into some time restrictions as I'm finishing up a thesis at school, so I was curious if there is a way to trim down the WODs somewhat so they can be done faster. My first thought was just to do crossfit for a bit, but I'm really enjoying these WODs and feel my strength needs more attention than it would get with pure crossfit. I read through your article on integrating weightlifting into crossfit and had a bit of a mental overload, so I thought it might be simpler to modify the WODs?
Thanks, as always. |
