Monday Funday!!

Hope you all stayed safe with this weather over the weekend. It is scary when you hear the wind howling outside and then you see pictures of the damage that mother nature has and can cause. I know everyone did their best to secure their belongings and look out for those people around them to make sure they are safe. Sorry we didn’t have the gym open today, but we are just grateful everyone has their own place to be and a community that looks out for one another during tough times.

We will be starting out teens and kids classes up at CrossFit 782 and 782 Athletics. CrossFit 782 will be having our regular teens classes Monday to Friday from 330 to 430 and 782 Athletics will be having our kids classes Monday to Wednesday from 330 to 430. Teens classes are for grades 7+ and the kids classes are for grades 3-6 ideally. We will also be open in the evenings at CrossFit 782 Monday to Thursday until 845pm and 7pm on Fridays. At 782 Athletics we will be open until 8pm Monday to Wednesday and Fridays until 7pm.

We will be having a trial class at 782 Athletics on Tuesday evening at 630pm for anyone interested in getting their friends out and involved.

Now on to the good stuff. Get ready to get back at it this week and get in your training!

Athletics - 6/12/430/530

Strength

12 minutes to build a heavy 3 rep Back Squat

This is a great chance to build back some strength here. Track your numbers here as we will be using these numbers for your future percentages during squatting strength and endurance work. Grab some spotters for this and work your way through this with good form.

Conditioning

‘Windy City’

3 Rounds (18 minute cap)

400/300/200m Run

30 Front or Goblet Squats (75/55) (55/35) (45/25)

20 T2B/Leg Raises/Knee Tucks

10 Burpee Box Jump Overs

There is a hard time cap on here of 18 minute minutes to get the most out of the workout. Scale your run based on your ability to finish the run in approximately 90 seconds to 2 minutes each round at a reasonable pace. Choose a weight for your front squats you can go unbroken pretty much every round or at least in two big sets. Work through that core work efficiently and then grind out those burpee box jump overs. Again there is a hard 18 minute cap on this so choose your running distance appropriately.

PrimeTimers - 10am (CF782)

Strength

Balance Focused Work

3 Rounds as a group

40 second plank - 20 sec rest

40 second side plank - 20 second rest (20 seconds per side)

Great work for the core and balance. Use a pole if need be or go from your knees for the plank if need be.

Conditioning

200m Row

15 Squat to the Ball or Box

10 Situps

5 Burpees

Time to get that body moving a bit here.

782 Kids - 330pm

A lot of you will be coming back for the first time after some time off during the summer so go at your own pace and think about good form during your movements.

Hello all.

Schedule updates as we get back into the fall

  • We still have the 9am class Monday to Friday at CrossFit 782.

  • Teens class starts on Monday at 330pm. Trial class for anyone interested on Tuesday, September 10 at 330pm. This is at CrossFit 782

  • Kids Classes start at 330 at 782 Athletics from Monday to Wednesday.

Had a great class this am and a great conversation afterwards about the benefits of sleep. Especially during this time of transition we want to make sure we get enough sleep for our own personal needs. Sleep will help you make better choices for your nutrition and exercise and allows you to think clearer and treat those around you better. It can be taken for granted though and can be the first thing to go when things get busy. Make sure you find time for an adequate amount of sleep when you can and when you can’t, with work or kids or life, etc., use your free time to catch up on it.

Athletics - 10

Strength

Devil’s Press Practice x 2-3 reps x 2 sets

HSPU Practice x 6 reps x 2 sets (either work strict here or cycle speed)

During this 10 minute block after the warmup cycle through the Devil’s Press, the HSPU, and your WBS/Rowing before we get into the workout.

Conditioning

16min AMRAP

8 Devil’s Presses (50/35) (35)/20)

12 HSPU/Box Pushups/Pushups

16 WBS

20cal Row

Something a little spicy here. Choose weights/numbers where you can keep moving through your reps. This is one of the comp workouts we have planned so we may be looking at doing it again so keep track of those rounds.

We will use the first 10 minutes after the warm up to get set up for the workout and test out the Devil’s Presses, which may be done for the first time for a lot of people. Work on finding a steady pace through this workout. We will probably do a bit of a stagger start with a larger group.

Accessory Work (optional)

3 Rounds

100’ Handstand Walk or 2 minute Handstand Walk Practice (can be against the wall)

20 T2B/Leg Raises/Knee Tucks

Wednesday, September 4, 2019

Hello and G’day.

See you all in here at some point this week.

It is time to get back into routine and that for a lot of people marks the end of the summer and comes with hope as well as sadness to see the spontaneity of summer leave us. Routine can be a glorious thing that allows us to create life long habits both mentally and physically as we slide back into a schedule. Routine can help us get to the gym more often, eat healthier, sleep better, and reach goals we have set over the summer. If you feel your routine dragging you into a rut find something to do to spark something new in your life and move forward again. For example once I hit the end of September I may be bored of the same ol’ day to day, but I can take a day to travel the Island or go to a show or change up my fitness routine by training outside again. And it is always easier with a buddy so find someone who can help you stick to your goals and habits and create opportunities for yourself for growth and learning.

Remember teens classes start back next Monday at 330 at CrossFit 782 and kids classes start back at 782 Athletics at 330 on Monday. The kids classes go Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday for grades 4-7 and the teens are for grade 7+ and they run Monday to Friday.

We will get you warmed up during comp class at 630 with a little Olympic Lifting and then hit this workout with a judge ideally so you can track your score and we will share a document with those interested to track these scores over time. After this workout is done we will do the regular class training.

12 to 2pm open gym at CrossFit 782

Hope this gives a little option to everyone. If you want to get in something a little different for your class workout come on by to 782 Athletics for a little work. If you want to get in and get after it for some open gym working on some skills come to CrossFit 782. Or who knows, do a little of both if you are feeling up for it!

At the 2 minute mark everyone will stop where they are and complete 4 burpees, 8 pushups, 12 situps, and 16 squats. In the first round this should take you about 30-45 seconds, if longer scale the numbers for the subsequent rounds. After you complete this round you can go back to pushing the sled until the next 2 minute mark. Rotate through your team who is pushing the sled.

Scaling options could be 2 burpees, 4 pushups, 6 situps, 8 squats or 3 burpees, 6 pushups, 9 situps, 12 squats or anything that works for you.

There will be some open gym there afterwards there for anyone wanting to try the rope and workout upstairs. We will also have open gym over at CrossFit 782 from 12pm to 2pm for anyone who can not make it over to Stratford.

This weekend coach Sam and the boys from UPEI play in the Mulligan Cup if you want to come out to check it out!

Get ready for a great long weekend with great people by getting in here on Friday and moving your body. Nothing helps release stress and help build good vibes other than letting yourself just come in and get to work and then let it all go afterwards. Can’t wait to see you.

Good luck to Morgan, Derek, and JIll competing in the Trifecta Obstacle Course Races this weekend!

Hello.

For those of you who train with us I applaud you. Not because you train with us and we love you for it, but because you do CrossFit/Athletics and that is hard. Yes it is hard physically and we all know that, but it is just hard in general. This type of training exposes you to any physical weakness you may have. No one wants to see their weaknesses. But you all see them and you attack them and you keep coming back for more. And you use that in your real life. Life is hard sometimes and life will expose our weaknesses when we least expect it to. Challenging yourself to develop both physical and life skills will help you face difficult situations when they do arise. And they will come up from time to time, that is without question. So keep doing what you are doing. Enjoy the moments of glory, face your challenges head on, and keep be as awesome as you have been each day we see you.

Once we hit September we are going to be continuing our 9am class. We will also be adding our teens class back in at 330 during the first full week or school. Teens in grade 10+ are encouraged to attend the 630pm classes when they can. We will also be offering our CrossFit 101 program, starting the end of September. Stay tuned on how to get your friends signed up for that.

Good day Wednesday.

Hope the farmers out there are enjoying lots of rain and everyone is staying inside and preparing themselves for back to school or back to routine!

We will be starting our kids program back up at 782 Athletics in the fall, the first full week back to school and this will run Monday to Wednesday at 330pm to start. We hope to add more classes as the sessions fill up and people find their routine with their schedules. This is for students in grades 3-6. Anyone older can be part of our teens program at CF782 and if you are younger please reach out to us as if we have the interest we could add something for this younger group.

As we all transition back into routine and the weather grows cooler what I am grateful for with this community we have here is the accountability it gives us all to keep coming in day after day. We all bring one another up with support and encouragement and a high five at the end of the workout. It is the community that allows people to become mentally and physically stronger.

Hello all!

Wanted to give a huge shoutout to all of our athletes who competed over at the D-Town Throwdown. Marg joined up with a team from Moncton and took the ‘ship in the extremely competitive scaled division. Anikha also joined a team from Moncton and they finished 5th in the Rx division. Jill, Greg, Aaron, and Emily M. competed as a team and had a fantastic showing finishing 6th in the Rx division. As always they did 782 proud and competed with full effort over the course of the weekend.

Next week we will be introducing our revamped Comp class programming. We will have a specific class for these workouts on Wednesday nights at 630pm and Saturday early afternoons, but you can complete the workouts and programming at any point during the week during open gym. There will be a document that we will share around the maritimes that we can compare scores and track our progress over the weeks, months, and years.

Hello everyone!

Had some great feedback today again from a few people about reading this blog. I had no idea people actually even read these posts, let alone took them seriously. I figured most people scrolled through the rambling to get right to the workout. It may seem simple, but I do feel proud for this. I want to throw it out to you now and if you need to share anything with the larger group or if you would like to have me write about any topic please send me a note or a message and I will address it as much as I can.

There will be a trial class going on next Tuesday, August 27th at 630pm at 782 Athletics in Stratford. This is for people who are interested in getting started over there as soon as possible.
