Training programs-
For load Strength
10-8-6-4-2
Hang Power snatch
– Each set must be unbroken.
– Rest at least 3:00 between sets.
Goal & Intensity
-The aim today is to build technical strength and control with the barbell, focusing on timing and coordination through the pull phases.
-You’ll learn to use your whole body efficiently and manage the barbell under fatigue.
-Controlled, progressive loading.
-This is challenging grip, rhythm, and bar path consistency.
-Keep the bar close to your body; the shorter the path, the more efficient and safer the lift.
-NO BOUNCING, LEARN TO EXTEND EFFICIENTLY
RPE: 7–8 → heavy but technically controlled effort; the final sets should feel tough yet clean.
Why: This session develops explosive pulling power, lifting technique, and barbell cycling efficiency. The pre-workout complex primes the nervous system and movement patterns, while the main workout builds power endurance and rhythm under load, crucial for Open-style and competition lifting. -
Sets for time Workout
10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 reps for time:
Hang power clean (34/52 kg)
Push ups
Goal & Intensity
-Build strength and stamina while descending in reps.
-Focus on keeping the technique intact.
-Drive with the hips first on cleans and keep shoulders active during push-ups.
RPE: 8–9 → high intensity but manageable if pacing is smart.
Why: This workout trains both mind and body to handle high intensity while building grip strength and explosive power. -

Ring rows
Goal & Intensity
-This is a classic – one of the most famous CrossFit workouts – designed to measure how hard you can push in a short time domain.
-The purpose is to capture a benchmark score to compare with previous and annual performance.
-Fast and intense – your lungs will burn and your muscles will flood with lactic acid, but the total volume stays manageable.
-Each round should be completed in no more than 2–3 sets.
Tip: Don’t waste time staring at the bar – pick it up as soon as you can and breathe with the movement.
RPE: 9–10 – this should feel like an all-out effort.
Why: Fran tests capacity, power output, and mental grit – it’s a tough but honest benchmark, and that’s why we hit it only once a year. -
