Programming

I have been struggling with programming.  I dropped my CrossFit membership at the beginning of the year to focus on mobility and have been flipping around with picking up Main Site workouts and HyperFit programming.  Both of these options are very good, but I would like to become more aligned with addressing my personal weaknesses.

Big issues with the 2016 Open were Overhead Walking Lunges, Double Unders, Bar Muscle Ups, Handstand Push-ups, 55x225# Deadlifts.

I have been addressing the Double Unders and am up to 14 unbroken, but when fatigued, these fall apart.  I have progressed to a hand stand hold.  I need to time some of these today.  I have not been working on OH walking lunges, Bar Muscle Ups or Dead lifts.  My goals have evolved over the years.  When I started, I wanted a 135# clean and jerk, 135# snatch and a cartwheel.  Then I wanted general physical preparedness.  Now I want to complete the 2017 Open as prescribed (Rx).

I am becoming committed to creating my own programming.  While this will likely go as poorly as my self prescribed triathlon coaching, it will force me to think rather than enter the box, be told what to do and forget about adaptation and what I am trying to achieve.
