WOD Notes: Click here for a video explanation of today’s workout, and here for a more detailed explanation of the KB/DB snatch.  The DB/KB snatches start from the floor each rep, and Rx is 50/35#. If you’re not comfortable with the KB snatch, you can replace them with one-arm Russian KBS (14 reps).

Event Notes: This workout is the first of three in the #SupportYourLocalBox Fundraiser put on by CrossFit, Inc. (More details on this post from April 1.) If interested, you can register for the event and have your name appear in the online leaderboard.  However, you do not need to pay to register, and you do not need to register to do the workout with us tomorrow!

Schedule Notes: We have a full schedule of virtual classes tomorrow – 6am, 9am, 12pm and 6pm! There’s also a virtual check in at 11:30.  The virtual check in is a good time to ask questions about nutrition, at-home or virtual WODs, or simply catch up with your ICA crew. Sign up in Wellness Living if you plan to attend, then join by clicking the Zoom link on the right hand side of the blog.

Nutrition Notes:  We’ve received several questions through the first three weeks of the nutrition challenge regarding nutrition surrounding your workouts.  For most athletes, some small amount of sugar approximately 30 minutes before your warm up begins can do wonders for energy during the workout and aiding in building muscle and recovery.  Some of the more common options in our gym include: a banana, tea with 1 tablespoon of honey, coffee with a tablespoon of sugar or even 5-10 jelly beans or fruit snacks.  Please note that we prefer you avoid processed sugar during this challenge, if possible.  Give it a try for a few days and take note of how you feel during and after the workout.
