CFF 09/21 - 09/27/26
Crossfit fernandina week 39
Happy Sunday, everyone!
IT’S FINALLY HERE — OLYMPIC WEIGHTLIFTING!
After months of strength development, our new Olympic Weightlifting phase officially starts this week! ️
And we’re kicking things off with our baseline 1RM Snatch on Monday.
A quick reminder: our Snatch and Clean & Jerk work during this cycle will be performed as squat lifts unless specifically written as a Power Snatch or Power Clean. So yes, Monday is a Squat Snatch!
Our goal over these next 7 weeks isn’t just to put more weight on the bar. We want to become more technically consistent, efficient, and confident in our Olympic lifts.
Better technique means:
Better lifts
️ More efficient movement
More work capacity
Better overall fitness
MONDAY — 1RM SNATCH
This is our baseline, so don’t put unnecessary pressure on yourself to hit a PR on day one. If you do — AWESOME!
But if you don’t, that’s completely okay. We now have a number to build from and improve over the next 7 weeks.
As with any 1RM session, leave a little in the tank and prioritize good mechanics. The goal is to establish a strong, repeatable baseline that we can use throughout the cycle.
TUESDAY — BAR MUSCLE-UP SKILLS
We’ll spend plenty of time working through a Bar Muscle-Up progression, starting with movements everyone can work on and gradually building toward more complex skills.
Not everyone will make it to the same point in the progression — and that’s exactly what progressions are for! You’ll have options to repeat a previous step or work on a simpler variation that still develops the skills needed for the BMU.
Meet yourself where you are, work on the next piece, and keep progressing.
WEDNESDAY — 1RM CLEAN & JERK
Wednesday brings our second Olympic Weightlifting baseline: the 1RM Clean & Jerk!
Just like Monday, the goal isn’t simply to move the heaviest possible weight. We want to lift heavy with technical proficiency.
If the weight starts causing your mechanics to break down, that’s our cue to reduce the load and get back to quality movement.
Anyone can muscle a weight around for a while — but developing efficient, technically sound movement is what will allow us to get stronger and more consistent over time.
️ WHAT TO EXPECT THIS CYCLE
Over the next 7 weeks, we’ll alternate between Snatch and Clean & Jerk complexes and EMOM-style lifting, while also working on:
- Squat strength & overhead confidence
- Snatch & Clean & Jerk accessories
- Core strength for lifting
- Technical gymnastics
- Conditioning at a variety of intensities
And you’ll continue seeing those gymnastics movements we talked about last week — Bar Muscle-Ups, Rope Climbs, Ring Muscle-Ups, Handstand Walks, Ring Dips & Pull-Overs — with progressions and modifications throughout the cycle.
You’ll see some movements repeatedly. That’s intentional! Repetition gives us the practice needed to actually develop skill and consistency.
The big theme for this cycle is:
TECHNIQUE FIRST. THEN LOAD.
If we can move well, consistently, and efficiently, the heavier weights will follow.
