Week of February 17th-21st

Workout A:
EMOM (:30 Intervals, 20min total)
100m x 40
-Form is the focus

Workout B:
4 x 400m
Rest 2 min
-Speed is the focus

Coaching Points:
These workouts can be completed at any time during this week. As usual, outside of CrossFit class is best, but if no option, complete after if still feeling strong. Workout A could be done on an off day, should not be strenuous.

Additional Drill Work:
-Watch the following videos from the PoseTV YouTube channel. Over the next four week we will work on some drills outside of the traditional CFE drills to help improve our awareness and body position.

This week you will need to:

• Video Yourself Running 
• Dartfish, or Coach's Eye is preferred since you can slowmo and look at it frame by frame
• Post it online so we can evaluate
• Understand the Springness and Pose Position
• Practice Bodyweight Perception Drills
• These can be very difficult, try all variations discussed
• You do not need to run a 5k this week
