December Planning

• November was filled with highlights! Big workouts, big lifts, and big wins. We kicked off our final strength cycle of the year and worked through a 5-week wave loading scheme of the Back Squat, Push Jerk, and Deadlift. These lifts will all be retested in December. We also ‘stepped-up’ to victory on Veteran’s Day by completing Chad – 1000 Reps of Box Step-Up! Our conditioning in November saw well-balanced RPEs and workout types as we settled into more of a GPP focus. Lastly, we saw (3) Thanksgiving themed NCFIT workouts – all big workouts for the big meals to follow!
• December is all about staying consistent through the final month of the year and prepping to the ground running in 2024! We begin this month by finishing our strength cycle and testing all 3 movements in the second full week of December. On these testing days, the strength portion will take priority and the workouts will be short burners to make sure everyone has enough time to lift…and hit some PRs! For our Christmas workouts we will see a new version of the NCFIT 12 Day of Christmas on Saturday before XMAS followed by two more themed workouts on Sunday & Monday. We will also have a NYE themed workout and NYD themed workout to ring in the new year! The final 2-3 weeks of the month will consist of non-stop, tried and true CrossFit programming. This will give the year a well-rounded finish with classic workout styles and help prime us for January…and the 2024 CF Open!
