Lucas Parker (AKA “Scoots”) will be leading an educational seminar on Wednesday, August 17th starting right after the last class (7:30pm). It should run for approximately 1hr give or take a few minutes and depending on how much everyone wants to learn!
Please bring your friends and family to the seminar; this is a nice, non threatening way to introduce them to the gym 😉
The seminar will include:
- Different classifications of flexibility and stretching
- Explanation of flexibility at the cellular level
- Different philosophies and methodologies related to flexibility and mobility.
- Pinpointing a few of the flexibility problems we have as CrossFitters, and instruct a few specific stretches
- Discussion about when, how, and what to stretch in relation to your WOD
Please respond to the comments section or email admin@crossfitzone.ca to register for the seminar.
Today’s Workout
Buy-in: Snatch Tech – the Snatch Balance 6 sets of 5 reps, with light-moderate weight
- focus on accurate foot placement and confident arms
WOD: “Felix”
This is another partner workout – this time involving some fun rowing! Team up with anyone (mix Zones ideally) and give this one a shot.
Team theme name is – Felines
For time, each partner will row the following distances:
- 1000, 750, 500, 250m
- total time for your team to complete the wod is your score
Zone 2 – scale to 800, 600, 400, 200 for smaller and lighter people
Zone 1 – scale as needed
Cash-Out: Move all major joints through as full (dynamic) range of motion as possible – this should be done every day twice a day for proper joint health and mobility! Take it from me – I’m super flexible (Turts) 🙂
Nooo! I love this workout, but cannot make it. Have fun!
I will be there helping Lucas out and getting more limber 😉
I'll be there!
Sweet! I've been looking forward to this workout!
I'll be there… and….
Bison Fun Fact #6: Bison are Grass-Fed and "When comparing the fatty acid profiles of grass-fed and grain-fed beef it’s easy to see why the pasture grazers are the best choice. The ratio of Omega-6 (n-6) to Omega-3 (n-3) fatty acids is around 20:1 in grain-fed animals while in grass-fed it’s about 3:1. The ultimate goal is to achieve a n-6:n:3 ratio of 1:1 this makes the choice a no-brainer!"

Turticus will be there, although I obviously have no need for greater flexibility….
I will also be stretching.
