Overview of our programming this week

This is the last week of this 8-week cycle, which was designed to help gain strength and consistency in the Olympic lifts. We seen a lot of gains throughout this cycle, and it has been exciting to see all the PRs. We will take a 2 week break to reset for a new strength cycle which will start on Monday, October 24^th.

Strength/skill-work for this week:

Monday – Squat Snatch
Tuesday – Hamstring Curls & Weighted Hip Thrust
Wednesday –Turkish Get-up
Thursday – None
Friday – Clean & Push Jerk
Saturday – Bench Press

October is here, and we got some fun workouts in store. Monday, we kick it off with a heart pounder where up and down will be the continuous motion between the jump rope and wall balls. Grit and grind on Tuesday, where we will ramp up the devil’s press volume. Wednesday is the annual memorial tribute to Juliana’s birthday who would have been 23 years old. On Thursday, it’s going to be a fun partner sprint interval. Friday is going to be a leg-heavy triplet where those who are willing to mentally dig in will have the best results. And on Saturday we end the week doing the first WOD that celebrates our 11^th Anniversary. We will be doing the first WOD we ever posted on our website back on 12/5/2011, which consists of a triplet of deadlifts, wall balls and push-ups.

FTX Classes – We have the most extensive group class-based schedule of any facility in the area. See our schedule here.

FTX Kids’ Classes – We have classes for 8-13 year-olds Tuesday through Friday at 4:30pm.

#FTXHomeWODs – We have plenty of gear for those of you that want to do some of these workouts at home, whether that is because of childcare situations, health reasons, schedule conflicts, or whatever. We can loan out all sorts of equipment, including rowers and barbells. We can also do personal training sessions with you at FTX or your home.

Overview of our programming this week

We’re into the 7th week of this cycle of 8 weeks, which is designed to help gain strength and consistency in the Olympic lifts. The focus continues to be on the Snatch (squat), Clean (squat), and Push Jerk. We have been doing the Olympic lifting 2-days a week with two lifts performed daily. After finishing the first lifting movement, we transition right into the next with little to no time wasted. This is designed to get good quality, high-skill lifts at moderate to heavy weights and cash out with some singular movement strength building to enhance our Oly lifts. Along with 2 days of Oly strength training, we have been doing 1 day of gymnastic skill work with our primary focus on the rings (Kipping, Muscle-up transition, and Ring Dips). On days with the strength, we have focused on keeping the workouts shorter (under 15 minutes) to allow for more coaching time.
Strength/skill-work for this week:

Monday – 3 Position Snatch & OHS
Tuesday – None
Wednesday –3 Position Squat Clean & Push Jerk
Thursday – None
Friday – Ring muscle-up progression
Saturday – Shoulders & Glutes mini-pump (Extra on your own time)

September is starting to wind down, but the workouts are staying hot. Monday kicks off with a non-stop AMRAP of KBS and Box Jumps that will give you flashbacks of the Open. Then Tuesday, we keep the cardio rolling with a multiple-set rowing and burpee interval workout where pacing will be key to the start for longevity. For Wednesday, athletes will have their hands (shoulders) full with this time crunch, arm pumping WOD of push-ups, squat cleans and pull-ups where they will be fighting for rest. Then we come to Thursday, is an interval cardio WOD with a good amount of core work mixed in. On Friday it’s time to sell out and empty the tank with snatches and lunge to the finish. Saturday is a fun and challenging 3 person team WOD with one partner resting each round while one partner bikes and the other does a couple of quick gut wrenching rounds of double-unders and DB cleans and front squats.

FTX Classes – We have the most extensive group class-based schedule of any facility in the area. See our schedule here.

Overview of our programming this week

We’re into the 6th week of this cycle of 8 weeks, which is designed to help gain strength and consistency in the Olympic lifts. The focus continues to be on the Snatch (squat), Clean (squat), and Push Jerk. We have been doing the Olympic lifting 2-days a week with two lifts performed daily. After finishing the first lifting movement, we transition right into the next with little to no time wasted. This is designed to get good quality, high-skill lifts at moderate to heavy weights and cash out with some singular movement strength building to enhance our Oly lifts. Along with 2 days of Oly strength training, we have been doing 1 day of gymnastic skill work with our primary focus on the rings (Kipping, Muscle-up transition, and Ring Dips). On days with the strength, we have focused on keeping the workouts shorter (under 15 minutes) to allow for more coaching time. We have also included some additional strength movements here and there as appropriate.

Strength/skill-work for this week:

Monday – Squat Snatch
Tuesday – None
Wednesday –Clean & Jerk
Thursday – None
Friday – Ring muscle-up progression
Saturday – Arms & Core mini-pump (Extra on your own time)

We are cruising through September, and this week we have some ringers. Monday, we kick things off with what looks to be a version of “Randy” (75 Power Snatches for time). You will be challenged with your pacing and grip endurance through this pull-intensive workout. Tuesday is a nasty 3-part AMRAP triplet with increasing time frames. For Wednesday, we have the ultimate leg pump for you. Let’s see who is willing to push through healthy pain and get the best time.(Know the difference between “good” and “bad” pain. “Good” pain tests mind and body. “Bad” pain causes damage and needs to be avoided. Talk to our coaches if you have any doubts.) Thursday’s workout is a fun, 5-set partner workout where athletes will have some new movements to try out. For TGIF, you need to be ready to push hard and fight to hold a pace until the end. And finally on Saturday, another triple whammy of rowing combined each once with HSPUs, once with Front Squats, and then once with Push Presses.

Overview of our programming this week

We’re into the 5th week of this cycle of 8 weeks, which is designed to help gain strength and consistency in the Olympic lifts. The focus continues to be on the Snatch (squat), Clean (squat), and Push Jerk. Through the span of 8-weeks, we will be performing sets at a set time to allow for adequate and consistent rest. The Olympic lifting strength will be held to just 2-days a week with two lifts performed daily. After finishing the first lifting movement, we will transition right into the next with little to no time wasted. This is designed to get good quality, high-skill lifts at moderate to heavy weights and cash out with some singular movement strength building to enhance our oly lifts.

Tuesday – Tri tricep treat
Wednesday – 3 position squat Clean & Push Jerk
Thursday – Muscle-up progression
Friday – KB Press variant & Hip extension
Saturday – Arms & Core mini-pump (Extra on your own time)

Monday kicks off with a solid bodyweight/light weightlifting workout where you can give a hard push, especially on the leg portions. Tuesday, we go into some hard sets with a little 1:1 rest and varied movements. Jump rope, burpee pull-ups and core will challenge you at a sprint pace, so partner up for added motivation. A fun little amrap on Wednesday that still gets us outside with some running and that has some rope climbs in the mix, and this one attacks your shoulders as well. Thursday will be one tough challenge for you. Let’s see who can grind through these intervals with little rest. Friday will be a chipper where it will come down to the box jump overs and who is willing to sell out on the final set of wall balls. Saturday is a partner WOD involving lots of various OLY movements and the good old Assault Bike.

Monday, we start with “Karen,” which is just a nasty single movement WOD. Tuesday we kick off with our first CrossFit Games workout for this week, the “Shuttle to Overhead.” For this workout, we changed it up a little, but the stimulus is still the same. Wednesday is an excellent old fashion open-style workout where the plan is simple, hang on and move. We have a fun partner burner on some ergs and bodyweight movements on Thursday. Then Friday comes, and we hit it with a bang! “Jackie Pro!” is probably one of this year’s best CrossFit Games WODs. This is a tough one, so ensure you are ready to push it. And we finish the week on Saturday with a special FTX version of “The Capital” CrossFit Games workout.

Monday, we start with some “odd object” squats paired with high rep double-unders; this will be a leg burner. Tuesday is someone’s B-Day WOD that likes the number “23”. On Wednesday, it will be just a “move” type day where the feel will trend towards an open-style workout with pull-ups, GHDs and Box Jump Overs. Thursday is another B-Day WOD – the “Olander”. Then on Friday, we’ll do a gut-wrenching hero workout, Holleyman, where we will be forced to put our heads down and move. Saturday consists of a double 10:00 AMRAP of shuttle runs, strict press, T2B, and DB Step-ups.

No Kids’ Class on Wednesday, 8/17

Overview of our programming this week

A new strength cycle begins this week, so the days with lifting will have shorter Metcons. Our cycle will have strength mixed with gymnastics movements. For the gymnastic skill, we will focus on muscle-ups and all the movements between (kip swing, transition, ring dip, press to hold). The gymnastics sessions will be performed after the workout and will have scaling options for all skill levels.

Monday – Snatch
Tuesday – GHD Hip Extension or Barbell Skull Crushers
Wednesday – Clean & Jerk
Thursday – Ring support
Friday – Lying DB Pullover or Elevated Toe Double Romanian Deadlift
Saturday – Multiple exercises for developing shoulders and glutes

For our workouts this week, on Monday, we start with a solid 10-round workout where athletes will try and keep consistent round times. Tuesday, we have a nasty combo, Bike and burpees. So, why not make it multiple sets to see if you can hold on? For Wednesday, we have a nasty little chipper with some heavier wall balls. A long, monostructural hero workout on Thursday will test your grit and grind. Friday, we end the week with some barbell cycling, double-unders, and sit-ups, where our grip strength will be tested.

8am and 9am classes only. Meet at Northside Park by the playground.

Overview of our programming this week

Our next strength program will start next week on Monday, August 15^th. This week is a bit unusual in that every day is a long hard work out, except Saturday where we will do pull-ups for strength/skill-work followed by a medium length WOD at Northside Park. We recommend picking 3 maximum. On the other days do some accessory work, SMR, stretching or just taking a full rest day. Remember that you are allowed to do Open Gym during any of our open hours. On a day where you won’t do the WOD, come in and warm-up with the class, then go do the accessory work, SMR, stretching, etc. Just be respectful of giving the class priority to space and equipment. That’s also a good time to hang-out with a friend while doing one of these things in a more casual way than you could with our classes where things are more go, go, go!

Monday – Daniel Hero WOD
Tuesday – 5 Rounds of Rowing, GHDs and Burpees
Wednesday – 5 nasty rounds of Bike – Snatch – Bike!
Thursday – Partner WOD consisting of D/Us and a DB version of the Hero WOD DT.
Friday – A 21-minute EMOM WOD alternating between 3 movements: Wall Balls, HSPUs and V-Ups.

What better movements to introduce your family and friends to CrossFit with than Thrusters, pull-ups and Burpees! Don’t worry, as usual, we will have a variety of difficulty levels and scaling options, so we hope you all enjoy this nasty little triplet. Tuesday will have you alternating between push-presses and lunges. Wednesday is a partner WOD of rowing and snatches. Thursday will have you doing 5 rounds/sets with rest in between, which you’ll need given the bike, core work and nasty farmer’s carry. Friday is another WOD with 5 rounds consisting of rope climbs, wall-walks and push-ups for a great upper-body burn. Saturday keeps the 5 round them going with S2Os, deadlifts and box jumps.

But in either case, always operating as part of a greater effort. FTX stands for Final Training eXercise, which in the military are field tests to see if a unit is ready for deployment or Mission Ready. In that spirit, FTX CrossFit is holding its 7th Annual FireTeam Competition and Fundraiser on Saturday, August 13th for 4 person FireTeams (MMFF).

Overview of our programming this week

On to week 3 of our second 3 week cycle of the banded work followed later in the week by heavier lifts.

After this cycle we will have an off-week and then we will repeat this program for a final 3 week cycle. Thursday is a 5 round FGB style WOD with Bodybuilders, sit-ups/v-ups and KB SDHPs. Friday is a triple-AMRAP with push-presses, thrusters and rope jumping. On Saturday we hit our obstacle course for the first time this summer season.

Monday – Banded Bench Press
Tuesday – Banded Front Squats & Deadlifts
Wednesday – Push Press
Thursday – Snatch
Friday – Deadlift

Monday’s WOD is a combination of a for time and an AMRAP WOD involving rowing and Turkish Get-ups. It’ll be a great workout. Tuesday will hit you with a 9-minute AMRAP of C&J, Ab-wheel rollouts, and ring rows. Wednesday is a 5 round couplet of KBS and jumping.

FTX Rates

As of 7/1/22 our membership rate and 10-packs will go from $175 to $185. Discount %s will remain the same for all current customers. The new rates are effective immediately for new incoming members and all future purchases of 10-packs.
Raising rates is not something we want to do. As any business must do given the current economic reality, we have to account for the unprecedented level of inflation. These economic factors are not our doing, and we cannot ignore them. To be the best FTX possible, to maintain our facilities, retain the best coaches, and adequately cover expenses, we need to increase our rates accordingly. We are by no means in a unique position as all businesses are currently having to adjust their pricing.
On the other hand, remember that if you’ve been a member at FTX for 6 months or more and you become unemployed, your membership is free for up to 6 months or until you regain employment. Also, if you are or you know of a member experiencing economic hardship, let us know so that we can come together as a community and help.

Overview of our programming this week

On to week 2 of our second 3 week cycle of the banded work followed later in the week by heavier lifts. If you did the first 3 week cycle with us, then you should be calculating everything off of a theoretical 1RM that +5-10 lbs. heavier than what you were working with on the last cycle.

Murph – This Memorial Day Weekend

On Saturday we will be running the Murph workout during each of our regularly scheduled classes: 8am, 9am, 10am and 11am. We will still have Open Box from 12pm – 1:30pm, and you can of course do Murph on your own during that time as well. Anyone wearing their Fight shirt for Murph can have a free FitAid or Protein Bar.

FTX Rates

As of 7/1/22 our membership rate and 10-packs will go from $175 to $185. Discount %s will remain the same for all current customers. These new rates will be effective 6/1/22 for new members.

Friday – Push Press

We start off this week hard with a Hero WOD for firefighter Kenneth Kumpel. Tuesday the Benchmark Cindy with 200m runs thrown in every round.

Thursday is a nice triplet with step-ups, HSPUs, and broad jumps. Friday is a triple AMRAP of power cleans and renegade rows. And Saturday is of course Murph!

At FTX we will do Murph on Saturday, May 28^th, since we will be closed for the observance of Memorial Day on Monday, May 30^th. We will be running the Murph workout during each of our regularly scheduled classes: 8am, 9am, 10am and 11am. We will still have Open Box from 12pm – 1:30pm, and you can of course do Murph on your own during that time as well. Anyone wearing their Fight shirt for Murph can have a free FitAid or Protein Bar.

Overview of our programming this week

We are going into the third week of our new strength cycle. Next week we take a break from this cycle and change things up a bit, but then we will resume for another 3 weeks gradually increasing the weight we use. This week you will go a heavier and/or do more reps depending on the exercise. This cycle will provide a comprehensive, multi-prong approach to gains!

Monday – Banded Front Squats and Deadlifts
Tuesday – Handstand Walks
Wednesday – Banded Bench Press
Thursday – Back Squat
Friday –Shoulder Press

On Monday we will do an FTX benchmark that was born during the 2020 shutdowns – “Eddie Van Halen”. Tuesday is a longer EMOM with Wall Walks/Handstand Walks, Rope Climbs, and Jumping Jacks/DU’s. Wednesday is a medium-short couplet consisting of Overhead Squats and Indian Sit-ups. Thursday is a short duo of fast plate G2O combined with a burpee variation. Friday is twist on the benchmark WOD “Karen”. Instead of Wall-balls it’s MBSCs. We finish out the week on Saturday running our Murph-prep WOD in anticipation of doing Murph over the Memorial Day Weekend.

This cycle will provide a comprehensive, multi-prong approach to gains!

Wednesday’s WOD uses a bit of a unique format to get you to do all the cardio movements and a variety of bodyweight exercises. Thursday is going to burn those legs and shoulders with pistols and a modified wall-ball movement. Friday is a full body workout employing a mix of 4 movements: bear crawls, dips, box jumps and C&J. On Saturday we will do the Hero WOD “Daniel”.

FTX Rates

As of 7/1/22 our membership rate and 10-packs will go from $175 to $185. Discount %s will remain the same for all current customers. These new rates will be effective 6/1/22 for new members.
Raising rates is not something we want to do. As any business must do given the current economic reality, we have to account for the unprecedented level of inflation. These economic factors are not our doing, and we cannot ignore them. To maintain our facilities, retain the best coaches, and adequately cover expenses, we need to increase our rates accordingly. We are by no means in a unique position as all businesses are currently having to adjust their pricing.

Overview of our programming this week

This week we start a new strength cycle. During the first half of the week, we will do short sets with little rest of front squats, deadlifts and bench press using bands. This will give us a very different stimulus where the resistance increases towards the top of the lift. Furthermore, the bands will also further stress our balancing and opposing muscles involved in each of these lifts. During the second half of the week, you will see back squats, presses, and deadlifts where you work up to your 1RM. This cycle will provide a comprehensive, multi-prong approach to gains!

Monday – Banded Front Squats and Deadlifts
Tuesday – Banded Bench Press
Wednesday – Cleans
Thursday – Back Squat
Friday –Shoulder Press

Monday’s WOD will work the legs and core with lunges and V-ups. Tuesday is a 20:00 AMRAP triplet of snatches, burpee box jump-overs and running. Wednesday is an ascending and descending ladder of S2O and pull-ups. Thursday is a fast triplet of Scotty Bobs, Jumping Jacks and Flutter Kicks.

As we’ve done the last two weeks, even though the WOD will be released on Thursday, we’ll run 22.3 on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

Friday Night Lights

Come again this Friday @ 6:30 pm to the party.

We again had a great turnout for our Friday Night Lights. Let’s make this last one for 22.3 be even bigger. Come and cheer on the ladies, as they will be doing this one.

Our point grab for the team challenge this week is everyone’s favorite – Burpees! During the week, just add whatever number of burpees you do outside of classes to the board. This is still an honor system competition, so just add your burpees to the board.

For this last Friday Night Lights we will be doing a different fun game and a challenge like the other weeks. Hint: Come hang around for a bit on Friday.

We are looking forward to seeing you all on Friday, March 11th!

We will be open one final time from 2:30pm – 3:30pm on Sundays 3/13 to judge 22.3. If you are not doing the CrossFit Open, you can still come in on Sunday and do Open Box.

CrossFit Open at FTX

22.1 is done! We go into week 2 and are looking forward to 22.2 being announced this Thursday, March 3^rd.
Remember that though the WODs are released on Thursdays, we’ll run them on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

Friday Night Lights

Come again this Friday @ 6:30 pm to the party.

What a great first week! It was amazing to see everybody on Friday evening at Friday Night Lights. A BIG THANK YOU to our Masters and Teen athletes who really put the hammer down on 22.1!

This week we have a unique little point grab for the team challenge. During the week, we will be competing at…(drum roll please)…Fish Game! That’s right. Whatever score you get during the Fish Game ON THE ROWER, just add that to the board. Our scores will look a lot higher this week, but the rules are the same. You can’t gain points during coach led warm-ups or workouts, but anytime outside of that (while at the gym of course) play away! This is still an honor system competition, so just add each game score to the board.

For Friday Night Lights we will be doing our favorite kid’s game, Jack Be Nimble, Jack Be Quick. In 1:00 perform 10-yard Shuttle Runs to collect 5 blocks and place them in a bucket. After all the blocks are collected do as many hops over a PVC pipe on 16″ boxes. 

Lastly, for a bit of additional competitive fun, you can balance a PVC pipe in the palm of your hand for time. We will give you 5 seconds to begin your balance, and then the timer starts from there. points will be awarded to teams based on length of time.

We are looking forward to seeing you all on Friday, March 4th!

We will be open from 2:30pm – 3:30pm on Sundays to judge the Open WODs. If you are not doing the CrossFit Open, you can still come in on Sunday and do Open Box. On Saturdays we will have an alternate WOD available in addition to the Open WOD of the week.

Overview of our programming this week

We are going into the second week of the 2022 CrossFit Open. 22.2 will be our primary workout for Friday through Sunday.
