Good post CJ. On the money with your programming at INVICTUS, and the results speak for themselves.

Another quote from the article ‘VIRTUOSITY Fundamentals, Virtuosity, and Mastery and open letter to CrossFit Trainers’:

“There is plenty of time within an hour session to warm up, practice a basic
movement or skill or pursue a new PR or max lift, discuss and critique the
athletes efforts, and then pound out a tight little couplet or triplet utilizing these
skills or just play. Play is important. Tire flipping, basketball, relay races, tag,
Hooverball, and the like are essential to good programming, but they are
seasoning like salt, pepper, and oregano. They are not main courses.”

Tomato, Tomatoe….. All I know is that it works, and works well. April 6 we had 3 sets of Deadlifts x3 I was pulling 380# for the last two, today last two sets of 3 were at 395#.

Sorry I just couldn’t do Randy today so I did 5 rounds of Hang Power Clean x 10, 15 Push ups, and 5 CTB pull ups (6:12) No long grinder for me today! Which means watch out for tomorrow’s workout.

Mark, how far is your friends travel radius!

CJ-
i cant really imagine that your workouts are anything less than perfect. i love the foundational lifts, and the met/con work definitely does the job. i would personally prefer to work my fast-twitch muscles for the explosive power gains, than to train slow-twitch muscles that i dont want to spend that much time on anyhow

C-Jigga- you had me at heavy lift/met-con combo. CFI programming completes me. Anyone have a good massage place recomendation? I am talking deep tissue/sports massage. Nothing shady- i.e. “hmmm, it feels drafty in here like the sheet isn’t covering my booty”.

CJ when it comes to leading edge inovation in the CF domian you’re certainly the man i would like to have as a CF coach. so far in the 3 months that we’ve been coming i have seen substantial results in both strengh and cadiovascular fitness……and well you see my wife perform daily there’s no question about her performance. I’ve become a hard-core addict to CFI and wouldn’t go any where else if i had too. thanks for such a magnificent program and don’t change a thing!!
