CrossFit Trivium – CrossFit Daily Focus (No Measure) The focus today is on the barbell. We will be starting off the day with a little more technical focus on the Clean, with the combination of the Muscle Clean + Hang Power Clean. The goal here is to have athletes really focus on how they are bringing that barbell up and close to their body by tracing a line from the hips to the shoulders as they extend through the barbell in the Muscle Clean. Note that the position from the floor should start in a dynamic position with the barbell close to the shins. We will start at 40% of their Power Clean, building to something that is heavy for the day. Most athletes for a Muscle Clean can get to around 60% of their Power Clean as a finishing percentage. We will then transition to the workout today, which...Read more

CrossFit Trivium – CrossFit Daily Focus (No Measure) We are starting off today with heavy Thrusters. A note that we are looking for these to be done from the rack for 2 reasons. First off, we pulled from the floor Heavy yesterday, and we have more volume pulling from the floor on Friday. Not to mention we will be working on clean technique as well as barbell cycling Hang Power Cleans tomorrow, so the focus here will be on the strength development of the Squat and Overhead Press development of the Thruster. By going from the rack, we can work on maintaining a better upright position, correct squat mechanics and a vertical drive on the bar into the overhead press. We will then transition into a challenging triplet of intervals performed on the 2:00 minute mark. Each set is meant to be done as a quick series of movements with...Read more

CrossFit Trivium – CrossFit Daily Focus (No Measure) The focus today will be on making sure that we have athletes prepared and ready to go for the Deadlift today. We will be ending with 2 heavy singles for the day at 90%+ so the primary objective here is to ensure correct lifting mechanics and ensuring athletes are taking that full rest period to recover, sit-down and get themselves ready to tackle the rep with intent and focus. Here is where we can really build up the body, but also where, as coaches, we need to really be on top of movement mechanics. We will then transition into Box Jump Overs and Abmat Sit-Ups.
