Phase 3 - NOW TO THE OPEN

Hey guys -

So it's now buckle down time.  We have a few more months until the opens, and with all the format changes it's going to be harder than ever to qualify.  That being said we really need to buckle down.  I still truly believe we have a legitimate shot of qualifying a team even though it's only top 15 - that's how highly I think of our athletes at CFW.  If you no longer believe we have a chance of making it I'd suggest you go back to doing class workout and don't waste excess time with all the hard training that is to come because the people who still believe can do without the negativity.  I hate to be so blunt but that's how I feel.  We need a positive training environment like we've had to this point to continue to get us through this last push.  In the coming months I'd like to offer myself up as well as some of our expert coaches here to help fine tune your overall conditioning, movement efficiency, weightlifting technique, gymnastics movements, as well as nutritional needs.  We have everything needed on-site and although there are subject matter experts elsewhere in Westchester and New York, I promise you when it comes to practical application of how these areas of fitness pertain to CrossFit and competition in general no one is better than us - please utilize our staff as a resource.  I'm pretty much open to helping coach you guys any Saturday afternoon with specific things that anyone or everyone needs help on.  Just let me know and I'll do the best I can to make myself available.  The 8pm at night is not ideal for me because my mind is not fresh, and you'll get my half ass coaches eye.  In this next phase we will begin doing a lot more conditioning and "open" specific work.  If you have any questions please contact me directly.

12/8 - you should be just about 100% hit rate with all of these reps

Nutrition

Custom Fit Meals wants to partner up with Team CFW and help feed us leading into the open.  I think a big whole in almost everyones game including mine is not eating enough to support our training and recovery, but most importantly eating enough of the right food.  If you're on board and want to learn more about this email me ASAP chris@crossfitwestchester.com as we need to setup accounts in their system.  We are more than likely looking at getting large quantity of healthy organic meals at or below $10.00/meal - way less than you'd spend anywhere else.  Nutrition plays a huge factor in all of this.  If you're serious about your training I'll be getting an email from you later :)

For the rest of this week there will be no WODs posted.  This is a long DELOAD week.  I would either workout with classes or do absolutely nothing.  As we transition into the final phase of training I'd like you to all be fresh for this final push.

Regionals Team Selection Process

Hey guys with the Open/Regionals right around the corner, I wanted to explain a little about how we will select a team for Regionals this year (if we make it).

Open Performance:
This is hands down the most important aspect of the selection process.  If you want to be on the team you'll need to be able to perform under pressure situations.  During the Open we will have all athletes interested in competing on the team sign up under CrossFit Westchester (White Plains).  Based on your placement amongst the Northeast Region & world we will assign you a ranking.  We won't use a custom gym leader board, but actually compare you to others in the world to see where you stand as this will be a more accurate representation of how you stack up against others outside of our small pond.  The goal for athletes is to place as high as possible as we will be giving athletes a ranking from 1-10 (or however many people are interested in doing the team) with 1 being the best possible score you can have.  Your score will be based on the entire open, not a week by week basis so it pays to be a generalist not a specialist.  There will be separate guys and girls rankings.  Once the opens are done, and we have our rankings we will move into test 2.  Test 2 will be a Regionals simulation weekend.  I will outsource a coach friend of mine to program a Saturday and Sunday event for anyone interested in competing.  This is not debatable once I select the weekend I expect people to change their plans to make this.  Unlike the open, this test will be more high skill and heavier to simulate Regionals.  Your score/ranking going into this competition will be based on how you did during the 5 weeks of the open.  After the weekend is done, and participants have completed the Regionals simulation weekend, the 3 men, and 4 women with the lowest total points will be selected as Team CFW.  Three men, because I will take the fourth spot, and 4 women -- alternates and game day athletes will be selected based on the workouts which are released.  This is the fairest way to go about selecting a team.  It's not based on who I like or who I'm friends with but frankly who steps up to the fucking plate.  Although we didn't place as high as I would've like at October Milford Mayhem I saw ALOT of our athletes step up to the plate which got me really fired up.  I'm training like a mad man again in order to post the best possible score I can to help improve our chances of making a team.  Obviously I along with everyone else knows this is a team effort so my score alone doesn't mean anything.  Who else is fired up?  Let's get after this shit and punch a ticket for our community.

As a whole I saw some amazing progress over the past 12 weeks, and although some of you might not be as happy as other, the general feeling of improvement seems to be contagious among team CFW.  You guys should all be proud.  For the next week you guys have 3 choices as we de load and prepare for phase 2.

Option 1:
Do you own program/thing this week and set yourself up for next week.

Option 2:
Do absolutely nothing.  Rest, Mobilize, Eat & Celebrate your first hard training cycle.

Option 3:
Work out with classes for the week.  We will scale down percentages but have you working with the group.

In order of my preference I like Option 3 the most, followed by option 2, followed by option 1.  The choice is yours this week.

Guys -

When I worked with my coach Jason Leydon I would do anything he programmed for me regardless of the workout, the day, the time etc.  He gave me a schedule and I followed it.  To that point almost everyone one of you following this blog have a full time job, family and other priorities which I know interfere with training, that's life.  You shouldn't feel any lesser if you can't fit in every single aspect of what I post.  I understand I had a different lifestyle in the above example which allowed me to train more and not have to sacrifice other aspects of my life, but the point I'm trying to make is I did not complain or throw a fit about every change that occurred along the way.  I was a racehorse and did was I was told to do.  Be the racehorse - the proof is in the programming it works!  If there is something that doesn't fit into your schedule than the answer is simple - don't do it.  I'm well aware that everyone does not have the luxury to train all day and fit every single thing in, that's fine.  You guys can still take classes and get better.  For example 2-3x per week of comp training, followed by 1-2 days of class if that's what your life allows.   You need to factor in your lifestyle and other commitments and make conscious decisions based on those facts.  In closing, complain less, and do more.  Make decisions not based on convenience but truly on what your current lifestyle allows.  This is supposed to be a team that supports each other and you guys will have my continued support along the way - it's much easier to support those with a positive attitude than a negative one.

Rest & Recovery Day

*Coaches Note*

Hey guys - a few things to remember during this testing phase.  First and foremost, I can all but assure you, you will not PR every lift or workout - get over it and move on.  Do not dwell in the past, do not let it affect your mood, do not let it interfere with all the progress you guys have made and the lifts and workouts to come.  I have had a Front Squat PR of 330# for 2.5 years and a Shoulder Press PR of 185# for 4 years.  Does this suck?  Yes!  Is it annoying? Yes!  Has it held me back from getting really good at fast exercise?  No - I'm pretty good with that.  Learn from me - move the fuck on and stop dwelling on meaningless stuff. You guys are all champions in my eyes - you've come this far, you've sacrificed sleep & social fun to get where you are to this point - the process without the struggle is not worth it.  Remember - "Full effort equals Full victory!"

Secondly, Kate has agreed to make us a spreadsheet for the pre and post testing results (she was super fucking pumped that I asked).  What I am looking for is your Pre testing cycle PRs (whatever your times or lifts where before you started this 12 weeks ago) followed by your Post cycle PRs.  If you PRd during test week great, if you PRd along the way great - please use those numbers as your PRs.  I'm trying to gather data to see where I went wrong with the program, where we did good, and where we can improve.  I need all accurate data in order to do this.  Please don't make it hard for us to do this.

That's all
