You should not be pacing yourself during this workout.
I’m curious about something.
For some reason I have a feeling some of you are still eating bananas and oatmeal with some peanut butter for breakfast.
I have that feeling because someone has made mention of the banana oatmeal situation more than just once.
Here’s what you do, send me what you’re eat for breakfast tomorrow morning.
Don’t send me what you think I wanna see, send me what you really ate. Everything you ate. Everything.

You guys don’t need to workout every day. That’s absolutely nuts.
You come in the gym you go as hard as you can and then you rest. Beating this shit out of yourself every day won’t increase your progress any faster.
I mean I guess that depends on what progress means to you, but I can assure you it’s difficult to get stronger and add lean mass if you never give your body a chance to rest and recover.
Just because the workout is up on the board doesn’t mean you have to do it. Do you eat Mc’Donalds everyday cause there’s one on every corner.
That’s ridiculous.

Crossfit Syosset/ Monday, January 22nd

Workout:

Back Squat
20 reps
Adding 5-10 lbs
There is one more week of this so adjust your weight accordingly.
If the 20 reps isn’t knocking the crap out of you by now, you’re doing something wrong.
This shouldn’t be an easy set of 20. The set itself should be taking several minutes.
Not only should you have noticed an increase in absolute strength but your muscular endurance under load also.


Metcon:

8 sets
10/8 Calorie Row
10 Burpee Over Rower
10/8 Calorie Row
Rest 1:1 b/t set
These are fuckin sprints!
I’m picturing in my head that each and every one of you is moving through each round full speed.
Earn your rest!
