Tuesday 11.12.13

I know not all of you are doing Ragin but stay with the program. Don't play with the weights. You don't need to "practice" heavy stuff, you need to recover. You have more strength than you think but it won't be there Saturday if you fuck around with weight this week. Today is lightish, Tomorrow will be light. Thursday you will do some active recovery. Friday you will do some groove greasing walk throughs. You will not get better at anything between now and Saturday, except maybe these sherm ass heavy rope atrocities. Recover, mobilize, recover. The best thing you can do from here til saturday is making sure you are 100%. We will do the power snatch WoD tomorrow. I am not programming any of the other WoD's. You don't need to do it to smash it. The only advice I have for you guys is to not blow out the gate unless you can finish the WoD at the exact same pace. This takes discipline. And it takes chilling the fuck out. Try it. If you need to, go youtube all of Froning's workouts ever. When you see Froning open with a set of 15 reps, it's because he could do 23 reps, but he knows that would be fucking retarded. Yes your pace will be faster on a shorter WoD but the key word is PACE. Even on a short WoD you should have one. It's just a little faster. When you WoD it is you and the Workout. Tune everything else out. It's when you try to keep up with the dumbass next to you that sprinted out the gate, that you become the dumbass who sprinted out the gate. Y'all are strong, it's time to get smart.
