5/27-6/1: OMG, it's June! Snatch Cycle Complete.

Congrats, Murph and Max Snatch Cycle athletes!

I don’t know about you, but my quads are already sore, and it’s only been about 10 hours since Murph…!

Congratulations to everyone who completed Murph and the Max Snatch this week!

We’ve finished this programming cycle and there will be an opportunity to deload this week depending on how you’re feeling. If you’re feeling sore and tired, scale down your intensity and focus on steady movement. If you’re feeling fresh, push the pace snd weights to where you’ll be challenged.

Hope you all had a great weekend and we’ll see you at the gym soon!

- Lindsey Whitehouse & Hillary Terry

5/20-5/25: Monday Milestones!

Monday Milestones: Snatch 1 Rep Max & Murph

This Monday, we reach the final week of our snatch cycle and will get to test a 1-rep max!  We will hopefully see some PRs and, more importantly, improved technique and understanding of one of the most complex movements we do in CrossFit. Some friendly barbell etiquette reminders: alternate lifting with those in front/behind you and don’t walk in front of someone taking a big lift so they can focus on the task at hand. 

And next Monday is Memorial Day Murph, where we’ll get to see the results of all the prep workouts we’ve been doing the last 2 months.  Whether you’ve been consistent or not, we’ll have plenty of scaling and partner options available so come by if you’re in town for this annual community tradition. We’ll run a holiday schedule with morning classes (similar to Saturday schedule).

See you in the gym soon to cheer on your swolemates, have fun, and celebrate completing this programming cycle!

Now, getting down to this week’s WOD business, let’s kick it off with the next round of our snatch cycle…

4/29-5/4: It's Gonna Be MAY! Snatch Cycle, Week 5

Happy May! It’s officially Murph month.

Get ready for a fun week of barbells and metcons! Enjoy yourselves, and don’t forget to wear SPF.

Before you go, check out this pure elation from Quarterfinalist Brianne Cannon and one of FCCF’s biggest cheerleaders, Mike Olasov!

4/22-4/27: Snatch Cycle, Week 4

Hope you had a great weekend! Get ready for another week of snatching and Memorial Day (on 27 May) Murph prep.

Congrats again to our Quarterfinalists! Friday night, Saturday morning, and Sunday morning saw this group of elite athletes (including former member, the Philly-based, Gwyn Price-Ahau!) sweating, pushing, laughing, and generally kicking butt. You’re fabulous role models for the community!

4/15-4/20 WODs + Congrats to our Quarterfinals Athletes!

Congratulations to our athletes who qualified for the CrossFit Games Quarterfinals! They finished in the top 25% of their respective categories (Individual and/or Age Group) and will be competing for a chance to make the Semifinals (if they place in the top 40 individuals in our North American West region or top 200 in their age group worldwide).

The Quarterfinals are this week, from Wednesday, April 17th to Monday, April 22nd. There will be four workouts to complete during this competition window that will be more challenging than what we saw in the Open.

We're looking forward to cheering them on through this next stage! We'll post the days & times that the athletes are doing the workouts on Slack if you'd like to come out to support. We'll also program one of the workouts on Saturday with plenty of scaling options so that the whole community can join in.

Congratulations again to our Fog City CF Quarterfinalists. Good luck this week!

• John Robinson (Age Group 40-44)

• Brianne Donahue Cannon (Individual, Age Group 40-44)

• Liz Terry (Individual, Age Group 40-44)
