This is TESTING WEEK! It's not all about 1RM this time - we're testing skills as well.

Remember "testing" and "training" are not the same...so while some of these days will leave you in a pool of sweat, others may not. You've been training hard...now it's time to see where you land.

Today, you'll find your 1RM Snatch and work up to a heavy (possibly a 1RM) Clean & Jerk.

CrossFit Open registration starts today! What is the Crossfit Open? I'm glad you asked...it's actually what you've been training for, whether you know it or not. The CrossFit Open is a series of workouts published by CrossFit Headquarters once a year. At CrossFit Hermitage, we will complete these workouts every Saturday in March. The top athletes in each region use these workouts to qualify for a Regional Competition (our Central East Regional Competition is in Ohio May 16-18)...and the top athletes from that weekend's competition advance to the CrossFit Games this summer.

"The Open" is for EVERYONE! You can visit games.crossfit.com if you'd like to take a look at the past year's workouts and get an idea of what's in store (though they DO like to surprise us). If you have even one little competitive bone in your body, we encourage you to sign up and use this opportunity to gain an appreciation for your strengths, weaknesses and mental toughness.

If you'd like to help us judge during the Open workouts, come chat with us. We want to be sure you fully understand the expectations, and there's an online course you'll need to take through CFHQ (even if you were a judge last year).

More details coming soon...oh, and we ARE going to Regionals again in May, so mark your calendars and make the road trip with us!

So...how did those July goals turn out? Are you ready to tackle something new in August? If you find yourself saying "I'll keep the same goal" month after month, we need to revisit the actual goal of...well...goal setting. This applies to every single one of you: from our new CFH family members to our high-caliber athletes. Each of you likely have different goals and different time frames to reach those goals, but we ALL need to define our personal goals and track our progress (journals...hint...hint) to achieve any type of success. Why are you here? What do you want to accomplish and when? What motivates you?
  • If you write your ONE-MONTH goal on the whiteboard by the water fountain, it should be something YOU can completely control and ACHIEVE within the month. (examples: practice HSPUs after class at least twice a week; hit 50 DUs in a row [because you're already at 40]; drink at least a gallon of water every day; string 3 MUs together; etc).
  • If your goal is going to take a few months, it belongs on the "short-term" goal board by the orange wall. This goal needs to be something you have to work hard to achieve, but you're on the right track and you can do it within about 6 months. (examples: run the Warrior Dash in October; decrease your 5K time by X minutes; move to a different pull-up band; jump on a higher box; get a bar muscle-up; etc).
  • You also need to have long-term goals, and those belong on the whiteboard right next to the short-term goals...and should ideally tie together.  In fact, it makes the most sense to set your long-term goal first, then determine your short-term and monthly goals as you define the steps it will take to reach that big goal that's about a year or so away. (examples: a CrossFit competition; a marathon or 1/2 marathon; a muscle-up; pistols; lifting a certain weight; finally being able to do something [in or out of the gym] that you never thought you could)
DREAM BIG - share your goals with us - and let us help you create a plan to reach them!

Strength:
Find 1RM Front Squats

Conditioning:
2 sets of ME Front Squats with 50% of new 1RM
