CrossFit Endurance
If you are interested in running longer distances, maybe planning on doing a 10km, half marathon or even a marathon, you need to start following Bryan Mackenzie from CrossFit Endurance. The guy is a genius and their training methods are changing the running world. Below are a few videos to watch if you are interested. Also jump on crossfitendurance.com. You’ll learn about running mechanics, proper hydration, how CrossFit training will make you a better and safer runner and you might even hear something controversial along the lines of, you don’t have to run for hours and hours to become a better runner… I like the sound of that! I’m doing my CrossFit Endurance Certification in October, so we’ll certainly be spending more time learning how to run better. In the meantime come and join us at AndRun endurance club 5:30 on Wednesday nights.
Best video to watch is on the CrossFit Journal:

‘The Bear’
“The Bear” Perform one of each of the following: Power Clean Front Squat Push Press Back Squat Push Press Strategy: Start with a manageable weight and make sure you finish the first round, rest sufficently, ramp up the weight for the next round and try to finish. Rinse, repeat. Complete the series of movements seven times per round, and complete a total of five rounds. Once you begin a round, the weight cannot rest on the floor until the round is completed. Rest 3-5 minutes between rounds. The goal is not to complete the workout in a set amount of time, but rather to complete it with the heaviest weight possible.
