Getting ready for the Q

With may 3rd inching its way to the present, it's time to start talking about my qualifying strategy.
For those of you who don't know I've thrown my name into the hat for the crossfit qualifier. That being said I need to get extra serious about my training if I'm to have a legitimate shot at this thing.

So the diet is dialed in, 20 blocks with 5x the fats and I've replaced 50% of my water with 2% milk. This will definitely aid my strength gains and help me put of some mass. Remember I am strictly eating fruits and veggies for my carbs and will stray away from rice, flour products, and pasta from here on in.

The training is about to change. While my main focus will remain gymnastics for strength and mass gains, I will now start to implement short met-con workouts. I will start with a 3 minute met-con wod with every workout, and slowly increase the duration by a minute for each week that passes.

This is how it will work:

Week one (Jan 19th): 3 minute wods, max rounds in the time frame
Week two (jan 26th): 4 minute wods







Week N: 3+N minute wods

When the qualifier rolls around I should be able to bang out a 15-17 minute wod at extremely high intensity. I think by training progressively this way I will come in at the best shape of my life and should have a decent shot at qualifying.

I will keep you posted!
