Run Forrest Run
The next couple of days is a Great opportunity to work on some "Goats" but what would also be really useful for tracking your progress is some accurate run data. If your staying around Penrith, I know Jamison Park just had the 400m track marked out. If your away then track down an athletics field & get your times for 100m, 200m, 400m, 800m & 1.6km. Stretch this over two sessions (am+pm or day1+day2)
An example session would be (Dynamic Warm Up Of Your Choice)
Session 1,
100m
200m
800m
Session 2

Eva
Get ready everyone, it's that time of year again....Eva time!
This year Eva will be held a few days before Christmas Eve, being this Saturday, & we have 2 times available. Our usual 7am timeslot & again at 10.00am for a 10.30 start (Approx)
As usual this is a family event so feel free to bring your family and friends.
If you decide that you're going for a spot on the board, please let one of the Coach's know in advance so we can be prepared for you. Remember, in order to qualify for the board, you must have a judge. Otherwise If you just want to get involved and have a great workout there are lots of options available to scale the workout to suit. How about Mini Eva, where the run and reps are halved or Team Eva, run and reps remain the same but partitioned between a Team of 2?
To help us prepare, please leave your name on the back board &/or leave a comment below if you are attending & if you intend to have any family etc attend. This helps us in a Haauuge way logistically
Following the 10am session, why not bring a slab of meat & a drink as there will be a BBQ afterwards to enjoy.

New Strength Cycle
Heres a bit of an outline of the Wendler Progression that we will be using for the next 8 weeks. Essentially, we’re working off a slightly modified version of Jim Wendler’s 5/3/1 program. For those who don’t know, Jim Wendler is a successful power lifter who developed the 5/3/1 method.
The Wendler Program is a 4 week cycle , with 3 weeks (Waves) of escalating intensity followed by a de-loading week. The waves refer to the load and volume we perform. In wave 1, we do 5 reps of a lift at 75% of a 1RM, 5 at 80% and then MAX at 85% of our old 1RM. Moving on, wave 2 we lift 3 reps at 80%, 3 at 85% and MAX reps at 90% of our 1RM. Wave three we perform 5 reps at 85%, 3 at 90% and MAX reps at 95% of our 1RM. The fourth wave is a “de load” week. Wendler goes with lighter weights as a sort of reset. We instead use this week as a chance to work on other lifts. This creates a natural de load by changing up the type of lifts without sacrificing a week at sub maximal loads. From here, we will go through another cycle of 5/3/1 and then on the 8th week or second time through all 4 waves we will retest our 1RMs
The lifts we will use during this cycle are the Squat, Deadlift & Thruster. We started the program off with Squats on Monday, & we are testing our Deadlift today & we will test a 1 RM for Thruster on Friday, which will be added to the cycle next week. Moving foreword over the next 8 weeks we will complete 3 designated Strength days each week. This will have us Squating every Monday. Deadlift will rotate between a Tuesday & Wednesday & Thrusters will rotate between Thursday & Friday. Because Crossfit has us mastering many skills, we must not neglect practicing the others. There will still be Strength at medium to light loads popping up in our conditioning portion of sessions, & of course we won't be neglecting the Oly Lifts either.
There are lots of spreadsheets out there that can be used to track your progress, if you have an iPhone, get the free app "BIG LIFTS" these will outline your loads that will be used in each future session. We will also have the resources at the box to set you up if you don't do the app thing. But one thing is for certain "YOU DEFINITELY NEED SOME KIND OF TRACKING TOOL"
Any questions please ask guys.

(B) - Hand Care Tutorial
How to tape your Hands
**We had a couple of sessions this week that left a few of you with the odd "War Wound" on your hands. For you Newbies its kind of a good thing. Its Good because it means your now able to string multiple reps together. The tear in your hand is a result of basically friction on the bar (Grip placement is also a factor) So whilst its GOOD that your now stringing multiple reps together, its also UNNECESSARY to get overly damaged hands every time you want to do any kind of Multiple Kipping movement.
You think your frustrated now, because you want your Gymnastic strength to be better than it is. Well, if you get damaged hands in the wrong spot or if its a few layers bad enough, you wont be Progressing ANYWHERE for a while simply because you cant use your grip to its potential. Its an easy one to avoid.

With a partner & one Barbell 60/40kg
1 Squat Clean Thruster
2 Squat Clean Thruster
3 Squat Clean Thruster
(Stolen from CrossFit New England)
One athlete works while the other rests. If Craig and Aaron are partners, Craig does one rep then Aaron does one rep. Craig does two reps and then Aaron does two. Craig does three reps and Aaron does three reps. That is one round. They would then repeat the same sequence, 1.2.3...1.2.3...
Partial rounds count. Score as complete rounds + extra reps (ie, 4+6).
This workout is harder and a better stimulus when done with a partner, but if you train solo you can do AMRAP 8 of 1-2-3 with a :30 rest between all reps.

This WOD is what I call a Burner. Burners are all out efforts and one of the best ways to build metcon quickly. Burners should work fast cycle times and no transitions. "Helen" and "Christine" are examples of some longer, but well programmed Burners.
Here is what burners should be like:
-Straight sets - if you are breaking or stopping you are not achieving the desired goal. Shorten up the reps or lighten the load.
-Light Weight - if you are thinking about the weight you're not trying to increase cycle time.
-Short time domain - 2 to 6 minutes. We don't exercise in one energetic pathway, but we are trying to max out the Glycolytic Pathway. Think about a max effort 800m Run.
-No Pre WOD Stress - These are wods that you should be able to jump into without a lot of physical or emotional preparation.
-NO DOMS - there should not be any excessive soreness from properly programmed Burners. We are looking to build you up with these not break you down in anyway. For that reason I wouldn't classify "Fran" as a Burner.

FIGHT GONE BAD
"Thoroughly warm up all movements in fight gone bad"
Fight Gone Bad
In this workout you move from each of five stations after a minute. This is a five-minute round from which a one-minute break is allowed before repeating. We've used this in 3 and 5 round versions. The stations are:
(1) Wall Ball (reps)
(2) SDHP 30kg (reps)
(3) Box Jump (reps)
(4) Push-Press (reps)
(5) Row (calories)
The clock does not reset or stop between exercises. On call of "rotate," the athlete/s must move to next station immediately for good score. One point is given for each rep, except on the rower where each calorie is one point.

Festivus Dodgeball Rules
CFP Official Festivus Dodgeball Rules
Here is a breakdown & modification of the OFFICIAL RULES that we will run with at CFP.
NOTE: Rules are subject to change if things are getting boring.
Teams
Teams will be made up of a maximum of 5 players
The Game
The object of the game is to eliminate all opposing players by getting them "OUT". An out is scored by:
• Hitting an opposing player with a live thrown ball below the shoulders (If a player ducks, and this clearly is the cause for the player being hit above the shoulders, the player is out and the throw is legal.)
• Catching a live ball thrown by your opponent.
• Causing an opponent to drop a live ball as a result of contact by another thrown live ball. (usually occurs when a ball is being used to block a thrown ball.)
• An opposing player stepping out of bounds with momentum carrying a caught ball. Both thrower and catcher are out.
Definition: LIVE: A ball that has been thrown and has not touched anything, including the floor/ground, another ball, another player, official or other item outside of the playing field (wall, ceiling, etc)
Timing & Winning A Game/Match
The first team to legally eliminate all opposing players will be declared the winner of the game. Each game will run for a MAXIMUM of 3 minutes. If neither team has been eliminated at the end of the 3 minutes, the team with the greater number of players remaining will be declared the winner. The game will be declared a draw if teams have an equal number of players on court. Matches will run for 10min via 4 x 2 1/2min Quarters with as many games played as can fit into the 10 minute time limit. Should the match be tied after the 10 minutes a draw will be declared. In finals matches, extra games will be played until a winner is declared. Teams will change ends at the completion of each quarter, with only a 2min break at half time.
The Opening Rush
Game begins by placing the dodgeballs along the centre line – three (3) on one side of the center hash and three (3) on the other. Players then take a position behind their end line. Following a signal by the official, teams may approach the centerline to retrieve the balls. This signal officially starts the contest. Teams may only retrieve the three (3) balls to their right of the center hash. Once a ball is retrieved it must be taken behind the attack-line before it can be legally thrown.

6 Week Fat Loss / Paleo Challenge
What is Paleo?
The Paleo Diet is a lifestyle. It’s an approach to diet that is based on the quality of foods you eat. It mimics the diets of our hunter-gatherer ancestors - consisting of lean meats, seafood, vegetables, fruits, nuts and seeds. It excludes foods that came from agriculture or processing - dairy, grains, refined sugars, etc.
The basic concept is that these foods are the foods that we are genetically adapted to - after all, our diets have evolved and “modernized,” our bodies haven’t. There are many benefits to eating this way, including a naturally lean body, acne-free skin, improved athletic performance and recovery, and relief from numerous metabolic-related and autoimmune diseases.
General Rules / Things to Know:
- This is a 6 week Challenge
- You will have your body fat taken using Skin Fold Calipers at 4 key location areas being back of the upper arm, at the front of the upper arm, on back below the shoulder blade, on the side of your waist. This will be done ONCE PER WEEK (by prior arrangement at a mutually convenient time)
- Although this is a Paleo Challenge you won’t be expelled or looked down upon should you consume dairy, legumes etc......but know that your progress will be slowed and results won’t come as fast
- You will be partnered with another CFP member, we’ve found in the past that having a partner and being accountable achieves better results
- After the 6 weeks are finished, the winners will be determined by the biggest % of fat lost (2 persons combined)
General Paleo Diet Rules:
(the closer you follow these Paleo Diet Rules the better your result will be):
- You can eat all lean meat, fish, seafood & eggs
- You can eat all non-starchy seasonal vegetables
- Seasonal fruit (1 Piece per day at the most is recommended)
- Moderate healthy fats
- Moderate nuts and seeds
- No grains or cereals at all
- No legumes (this includes Peanuts)
- No dairy products (eggs are not dairy)
- No processed foods – make it yourself!
- No sugars. Agave, organic honey, molasses, ….it doesn’t matter. They are all out
- No artificial sweeteners. These are not food! They are out too.
What To Expect
The Hardest Part of Any Journey is the First Step. A New Diet is No Different. Making the Paleo switch comes with challenges. Depending on how heavy your diet is with grains and sugar before you switch, you will experience an adjustment period of varying degrees of intensity. You will experience a dip in your athletic performance and have times when feel lethargic and cranky. This period can last from 2 days to 2 weeks. Keep in mind that your body is going through withdrawals and there is a light at the end of the adjustment tunnel.
Stick with it, and be patient with yourself. You can’t reasonably expect to completely reverse years of poor eating habits in just 6 weeks. At some point, the magic will happen. You’ll go to sleep easier, and sleep more soundly through the night. Your energy levels will increase and stabilize, and you’ll feel just as good first thing in the morning as you do at the peak of your day. Your body composition will start to change – your clothes will fit differently, and you’ll feel less bloated at the end of the day. Your performance will improve and recovery after exercise will feel easier and more complete. Conditions, ailments, aches and pains will start to improve, and through all of it, you’ll be eating fresh, natural, real food… food that tastes good, and is physically satiating and mentally satisfying.
Plan Ahead
Part of the difficulty of starting Paleo is the amount of preparation involved. Make sure you plan ahead so you aren’t stuck in a situation where you are left with no options. A lot of people like to use Sunday to prep for the week. Other people make lunch for the next day at the same time as they are making dinner, so they don’t feel like they are spending too much time in the kitchen. Find a system that works and stick to it. There will be places or situations where you know you have difficulty staying on diet (ie at the office working late, where there is an endless supply of biscuits, cakes, donuts and not much else) - make sure you have options ready available to you. Talk to your family so they know what you’re doing and you don’t come home to a meal filled with food you aren’t supposed to be eating.
