WOD Monday, February 8, 2010

Buy In: "RS" (see the last post, "sue wins" if you don't know what this means)

WOD: Burgener warm-up, then:

Squat Cleans

8 rounds of 3 reps on the 2 min.

We do these at the same weight for a total of 24 attempts. If you can do at least 80% successfully (no more than 4 misses in 24 attempts), it is time to move up in weight next time we do this workout. This is about repetition, consistency and fine tuning our technique. What's cool about this workout is that, as you fatigue, it is very tough to pull-off the last 3-4 rounds without really concentrating on doing everything right.

To recap - we needed a short name for "The Russian's Gymnastic Warm-up". We had several suggestions, but the best, and now CFTA official, moniker is "The Red Scare". We will go right to "RS" for an abreviation.

Here is Sue's explanation, for which she has earned a T shirt:

"The Red Scare: (Day 1 workout= First Red Scare    Day 2 workout=Second Red Scare)

       In United States history, the term Red Scare denotes two distinct periods of strong anti-communism: the First Red Scare, from 1917 to 1920, and the Second Red Scare, from 1947 to 1957. The Scares were characterized by the fear that communism would upset the capitalist social order in the United States; the First Red Scare was about worker revolution and political radicalism. The Second Red Scare was focused on (national and foreign) communists infiltrating the federal government.

 

      In Crossfit history, the First Red Scare, "Day 1", denotes the dreaded upper body pressing and lower body components;  The 2nd Red scare is, of course,  the "Day 2" workout consisting of upper body pulling and core/lower back work.  These types of scares are characterized by the fear that outsiders have concerning how Crossfitters will upset the social order in the U.S. (a fear of CrossFit  already exists in our valley, outsiders are threatened by our strength, agility and power;  they are becoming increasingly agitated over the presence of the CF Cult which is growing)."
