WOD Summary
Please look at Wodify for the specific daily WOD announcements. They are available a week in advance. We’ll post next day’s WOD here the day before.
This week, in regards to our strength cycle, we are into the second week of a variant of the 5-3-1 Strength Program. For more information on this Strength Program see this website (Note the author uses some strong language). The 5-3-1 Strength Program is a well-known and proven system. We have used it at FTX on many an occasion with positive results. We are going through one cycle of it now, will do something different in November and will be back to 5-3-1 in December.
This upcoming week starts with very challenging WODs on Monday and Tuesday. As always we encourage you to train smart. This week you will see a bit of running as we are trying to still get a bit of it in before we will be stuck indoors for winter! After Monday and Tuesday, a rest day or our no measure day will be in order. We’ll finish the week out with a cardio focused WOD on Thursday, a strength focused WOD on Friday, and a WOD that requires strength, cardio and gymnastics for Saturday.
It is our hope you enjoy this week’s programming of functional movements that are constantly varied and meant to be done at high intensity. Keep in mind that quality of movement and range of motion come before going heavier and faster. Train smart!
