2010 Memorial Day WOD


Todays WOD:
Murph


In memory of Navy Lieutenant Michael Murphy, 29, of Patchogue, N.Y., who was killed in Afghanistan June 28th, 2005.
This workout was one of Mike's favorites and he'd named it 'Body Armor.' From here on it will be referred to as 'Murph' in honor of the focused warrior and great American who wanted nothing more in life than to serve this great country and the beautiful people who make it what it is.

King Crossfit would like to thank all of those who has served or is serving in the Military. Days like to today would not possible without your sacrifice.

What the Fuzz?

Here’s an interesting video by Gil Hedley on “fuzz”. The fuzz concept relates to a phenomenon of accumulation of various covalent and hydrogen bonds, associated with formation of collagen fibrils, in your muscular and connective tissues. Too much fuzz equals reduced sliding of different tissue interfaces in relation to one another.

What?

Well, reduced sliding of these tissue interfaces (e.g. between two layers of a muscle) will increase the resistance you have to overcome during movement and will therefore reduce your capacity in the workouts (and life for that matter). Don’t take my word for it, check out what K-Starr has to say about the video.

So what’s the take home message here? Stretch! Mobilize! Foam roll! Stay active! Or let the fuzz take you..

Look Better Butt Naked Challenge

We've just about finalized the details of our next challenge. I won't exactly call it a nutrition challenge because crossfit "skill testing" will play a large part as well.

The challenge will begin on June 5th and will end on July 17th. Buy-in will be $20 and before-and-after pictures will be required this time. We will follow the Paleo Diet as we did in the first challenge. More details to follow in a few days.

Sorry if I offended anyone with the last picture of Ms. Kardashian. So I thought I'd change it to something more appropriate - enjoy!!!

Open Gym Time Anyone?


I've noticed on social networks like Facebook & Twitter and overhearing conversations between our athletes that many of you still have "Globo-gym" memberships, i.e. 24hr Fitness and LA Fitness. I'm somewhat baffled, but know it's all well and good because y'all are spreading the word about King CrossFit to those that aren't in the know, right? Anyway, I want to know how many of you would be interested in an open gym outside of our regular class hours?

CrossFit Games 2011

The sign-up sheet for the 2011 CrossFit Games is up at the box. We've got a handful of athletes that have already signed-up for the individual and team competition but we would love to see more of you participate. You have several months to train so let's get to work! On that note, we will be opening up a special class to prepare our athletes for the Games - details forthcoming.

The following are several video clips from the NW Regionals at the Puyallup Fairgrounds a couple of weeks ago. If this doesn't get you excited and motivated for next year then I don't know what will.

Full House!

For those of our athletes that come in to a "full-house" for the 7pm WOD, keep in mind that our 5pm & 6pm classes are somewhat light. If you want a little more elbow room and extra attention from the trainers (not that we slight you at 7pm) we highly recommend that you come in for the earlier classes. At times when we are up to capacity, we may break you up into 2 groups depending on the WOD and equipment availability. Thank you for being patient with us. We are currently looking for extra space in the general vicinity so that we can run our Foundations & Baseline classes without interfering with our regular classes.

052010 WOD

Warm-up:
50 double-unders
Shoulder dislocates*

Strength WOD:
Press
3-3-3-3-3

Met-Con WOD:
10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1 reps of:
Medicine Ball Clean to Wallball
Burpee Box Jumps

*Shoulder Dislocations are a dynamic stretch exercise. They stretch your chest, shoulder & upper-back muscles dynamically. If you have slouching shoulders & flaring shoulder-blades, shoulder dislocations can fix your posture.


Shoulder Dislocations Technique. Reach back with the PVC pipe. You’ll feel a stretch in your chest. Keep going until the the bar hits your back/hips. Squeeze your shoulder-blades. Come back up. Repeat for 3 sets of 10 reps.

* Wide Grip. Start with the widest grip you can use. Switch to a narrow grip as your upper-body mobility improves.
* Lock Your Elbows. Keep your arms straight from start to finish. Widen your grip if you can’t keep your elbows locked.
* Squeeze Your Glutes. This prevents hyper-extension of your lower back which puts pressure on your vertebrae.
* Chest Up, Shoulders Back. Make a big chest & keep it up. Pull your shoulder-blades back & down.

When to Do Shoulder Dislocations. The more you do shoulder dislocations, the better you’ll become at them. If you have tight upper-body muscles, I advise you to do shoulder dislocations daily.

* Pre-Workout. 3 sets of 10 reps pre-workout to lubricate your joints & warm-up your upper-body muscles.
* Daily. If you have slouching shoulders & flaring shoulder-blades do 3 sets of 10 reps daily to improve your posture.

Common Errors. Quality matters, not quantity. You’ll progress faster if you do shoulder dislocations correctly from the start.

* Bending Your Elbows. You lack upper-body mobility. Use a wider grip & tighten your triceps.
* Arching Your Back. Hyper-extending your lower back puts posterior stress on your vertebrae. Avoid this by squeezing your glutes.
* Limited Range of Motion. If you can’t reach behind your head/against your hips, your grip is too narrow. Widen your grip.

CrossFit Games 2011 Anyone?

2010 NW Regional Results

As you know, several King CrossFit members witnessed some amazing athletic feats this weekend at the Northwest Regionals in Puyallup. Check out some of the pictures that Paolo Sanchez with Foundation CrossFit took at the Regionals at http://www.flickr.com/photos/paosanchez/sets/72157624073590088/show/with/4612830398/

Who's Down with the Kings for next years Games? Sign-up sheet for individual and affiliate team will be up at the box shortly.

Coach Ron posted this video of Chris Spealler doing the same WOD we programmed today. I had to post it again because it's just bad ass! Keep in mind, Chris is overhead squatting his bodyweight on uneven ground.
