CrossFit Trivium – CrossFit
Daily Focus (No Measure)
Today kicks off with a dynamic Snatch Complex, designed to enhance power and efficiency, particularly through the midsection of the lift. We’ll start with the Power Snatch to cultivate powerful hip extension. This phase is all about generating momentum and strength from the ground up. Next, we’ll transition into the Squat Snatch. Here, the focus shifts to a quick and assertive pull under the barbell, culminating in a solid overhead position to emphasize stability and control.
Post-Snatch session, we’ll shift gears from the barbell to concentrate on specific strength exercises for our gymnastics skills, coupled with an intense round on the Echo Bike. The Strict Pull-Ups and Wall Facing Handstand Push-Ups will be our primary gymnastic movements. It’s important to also engage in quality reps with the Dumbbell Bench Press and push ourselves to about 85% intensity on the Echo Bike to complete each set effectively.
Time management for today’s session is key. We’ll start with a thorough warm-up tailored for the Snatch, ensuring that the entire body is primed for the upcoming EMOM (Every Minute On the Minute) workout. This comprehensive warm-up not only prepares us for the snatches but also for the subsequent exercises. In the EMOM, we’ll briefly focus on refining efficiency in the Wall Facing Handstand Push-Up and dedicate time to discussing various scaling options suitable for all athlete levels in our class.
Let’s approach today with a mindset geared towards building strength, refining technique, and enhancing overall fitness. It’s a day to challenge ourselves, learn, and grow in our athletic abilities. Let’s get to work and make the most of this multifaceted training session!

We are looking to tackle reps on the Wall Facing Handstand Push-Up and Strict Pull-Up that can be done in 2-3 sets as well as be completed in 45 seconds. These are the two focal movements of the day with the secondary priority being the weight on the Dumbbell Bench and the Calories on the Bike. The goal for these should be to find a load for the Dumbbell that allows for unbroken reps, and find a pace on the Bike that allows you to hit consistent calories in 45-50 seconds then a 10 second transition to the wall. Remember that the focus is on the Wall Facing Handstand Push-Ups, so be conservative on the Bike to allow for better consistency here.
You must be able to complete all the reps in Mins 1-3 for your total calorie count as RX
