Week 5 of the new cycle! This is our final off season cycle of the CrossFit Season. The purpose of the off season cycles has been to work on skills, and overall strength in preparation for our pre season and open season training. During this cycle we will be working on long barbell cycles, and doing our first squat cycle of the season- the “Hatch Squat Cycle” check out a good article on this program here. The weekly schedule will go as follows:

 

Mondays: Hatch Squat Day 1

Tuesdays: Gymnastics Strength/Accessory work
