March Workshops at CrossFit Impavidus

steph : February 25, 2013 12:56 pm : Impavidus Blog, Seminars & Challenges

pull upSunday, March 3:  Pull Up Workshop

The Kip Swing is a integral skill that is applied to many movements in CrossFit. With a proper kip swing pull-ups (chin or chest to bar), knees to elbows and toes to bar become nearly effortless (well at least easier!).  No matter what your skill level, everyone can benefit from learning how to kip! Time permitting we’ll even review the bar muscle-up (a great progression to a ring muscle-up).
Skills we will review will include:
  •    Kipping Pull ups
  •    Butterfly Pull ups
  •    Toes to Bar
  •    Knees to Elbow
  •    Bar Muscle ups (time permitting)

Register Today!

Date: Sunday, March 3
Time: 12pm – 2pm
Cost: $25 (Platinum members 50% off)

Workshops are open to all Members though space is limited. Don’t wait!

Sunday, February 3:  Pull Up Workshop

Are you on one of the CFI competitive Teams getting ready for the CAL Championships? Are you planning to compete in the CrossFit Open Series this March? You can bet that Pull Ups will be part of the programming.

If you can do at least 3 dead hang pull-ups but have yet to master kipping or butterfly pull-ups, this workshop is for you! By the end of this workshop, you WILL be able to knock out both Kipping and butterfly pull-ups, saving valuable time on WODs.

Please Note: You must be able to do at least 3 dead hang pull-ups to attend this Workshop.

Reserve Today!

Date: Sunday, February 3rd
Time: 12pm – 2pm
Cost: $25 (Platinum members 50% off)

Workshops are open to all Members though space is limited. Don’t wait!

imagesSunday, February 17:  Foundations

Are you new to CrossFit and want to be better prepared for our regular CrossFit classes?

Do you feel like you could use a refresher on the foundational movements of CrossFit?

If you answered YES to either, you need to attend the CFI Foundations Workshop this Sunday at 2p-4p.

We will be learning and practicing the nine foundational movements that are fundamental to most everything we do at CrossFit Impavidus.

What are the foundational movements?

  • 1. Air Squat
  • 2. Front Squat
  • 3. Overhead Squat
  • 4. Press
  • 5. Push Press
  • 6. Push Jerk
  • 7. Deadlift
  • 8. Sumo Deadlift High Pull
  • 9. Medicine Ball Clean

Some of these movements may seem elementary to some that have been CrossFitting for years, but even so, there are probably a lot of positioning cues that you may be missing. Simple position fixes could be what you’re missing to hit that PR that you haven’t been able to hit.

This workshop is the second in a series of CrossFit Foundational Workshops we will be offering.  Each will include 3 of the 9 CrossFit Foundational Movements.  Technical mastery of these basic movements will enable you to lift heavier weight, more easily perform Olympic Lifts, and complete CrossFit WODs while minimizing injuries.  Skills covered in this session will be the Press Series!

  • Date:  Sunday, February 17
  • Time:  2pm – 4pm
  • Cost:  $25 (Platinum members 50% off)
  • Register!

Workshops are open to all Members though space is limited.  Don’t wait to reserve your space!
