The Friday Night Lights crew finishing up 14.5 and the end of The Open. From left to right; Kory Kearney, Rodney Rodriguez, Kyle Gundrum, Jeff Hart, Homar Sanchez, Dave LeClaire, Kimberly Groeper, and Mimi Smith-Munroe.
So, we’ve all just finished five hard weeks of work with the CrossFit Open. Therefore, we will take this week as a de-load week. Does that mean stay home, and do absolutely nothing? Hell no! We will still put our bodies through the paces, but the intensity will be dialed down a slight bit. Your focus this week will be on perfect reps each workout. Don’t try to zoom through any of these WODs, rather feel the muscles working. Go from point A to point B the proper way. Don’t sacrifice form. Get that mind-muscle memory prepped for what is coming next week….
