Mastering the KIPPING Pull-up
With the new addition to our facility, Pull-ups have become a common occurrence lately. Kipping is key to achieving maximum performance during WOD's. The best FRAN, CINDY and ANGIE times are completed by using the "kip". Check out these two videos from our friends at CrossFit Balboa.
The first video demonstrates the old school military version "dead hang, no momentum" great movie! He is almost as scary as my Drill Instructor was in OCS.
The second video applies kipping.

RUNNING CROSSFIT STYLE
For any of you that want to improve your running efficiency check out this video. CrossFit Endurance takes a different approach to running...we teach proper form and use video analysis to correct poor technique. POSE running is much more effective than "heel striking". If you have ever considered taking on a marathon or half marathon...make sure you train properly.
Overuse injuries are far too common in the endurance community. Utilizing the POSE technique places less stress on the lower extremities. POSE works with gravity, not against it.
You can learn more about POSE running and CrossFit Endurance by contacting Coach Morris at crossfitmt@gmail.com

POST WOD RECOVERY/NUTRITION
Hey guys, good morning. As coaches we preach the Zone Diet on a daily basis because of its 40/30/30 ratio. In order to achieve the best performance, proper post workout nutrition is a must!
I make sure that all of my endurance athletes stay hydrated during training/races and maintain adequate levels of CHO,Protein and Fat daily. Runners, Triathletes, etc. need to be able to recovery quickly. What about the average CF's that want to improve times and increase strength and speed?
You don't have to be a marathon runner or pro football player to get the best out of crossfit. For everyone, proper recovery is a must! There is a small window immediately after a workout that boost performance to the next level. The body is able to absorb more nutrients and replenish glycogen within 30 to 45 min following an intense workout {CrossFit}. During this time glycogen levels are depleted and CHO, Protein and fat are more readily absorbed. By ingesting a post-workout meal or protein shake, the muscles are able to utilize CHO, Protein and Fat in an anabolic state. Anabolic meaning, "muscle building". The Carbs "CHO" should come from a simple source (see below).
The bottom line guys, if you feed your muscles immediately following the WOD...You are going to see tremendous gains. A protein shake or smoothie is a better choice than a meal. Liquids will be absorbed at a faster rate than whole food. For optimum performance, ingest a mixture of CHO,Protein and Fat within 30 to 45 min following your workout. Post-workout is the only time that I encourage simple sugars! Yes, you read that right...I said simple sugars. If you like gatorade, accelerade etc. this is the time to use it. Only following the WOD, do not use these products during class. The simple sugars in gatorade will mess with your gut and make you sick!
Lastly, use some common sense with using sports drinks. Your post-workout shake should follow your block prescription. If you are a 3 block meal, don't ingest the biggest gatorade on the market loaded with 100 grams of sugar! Your shake or smoothie should be as close to 40/30/30 as possible. Remember the CrossFit pyramid...if you eat crap, your performance will be crap! Give this a try and I guarantee you will take your fitness to the next level.
