Starting November 12th 2022 until February 11th 2023, members are CrossFit eXalted will be in a 12 week period Build cycle. It is structured around 3 weeks on and 1 week deload/reach week. This 1 week deload week is meant to reach certain PRs in gymnastics or weightlifting even though volume is decreased. This 1 week period occurs 4 times across the 12 week cycle for an opportunity to reach your PR that you have been training for.
The previous cycle we were in was a Base cycle. This cycle is intended to be a foundation for your Build cycle. We build up from a foundation of cardio, strict gymnastics, and strength in order to be prepared for our Build cycle. The Base cycle we were previously in focused on aerobic training. Most WODs used machines to help build your aerobic baseline.
This Build cycle contains more barbell gymnastics and movements along with weightlifting to build strength and endurance. We will not spend as much time on machines while training, since this is a competitive cycle. Another interesting part of the Build cycle is that every Friday is an Open workout from past Open competitions. Friday, November, 25th, will be an Open from 2012. There will also be a repeat workout each week. This could be a hero workout, Comptrain bench workout, or even a workout you have done in the past.
We hope you enjoy this next 12 weeks of building strength and reaching your PRs putting you closer to accomplishing your fitness goals.
