CrossFit Metropolis Endurance Club -
Brendan and Eroc will be doing a 6 week Endurance Club starting as soon as we work out the details and get registration up and running.
This program can be done in conjunction with regular programming.
It will be thought out and laid out and can be used to prepare for a race, to develop proper running technique or to just improve your running for WODs.
Program details about Pricing, How many times per week (either one or two) the program will be offered, which days or day and times and location will be announced in a day or two.
After that, registration will be open to everyone who’d like to participate!
Olympic Weightlifting Club:
Once the Endurance Club is wrapped up and the weather gets chillier, I will run a 6-8 week Olympic Lifting Club.
Specific Details about pricing and times/dates will also be announced soon.
This program will be for anyone interested in improving their Snatch, Clean and Jerk and in incorporating the proper training and accessory exercises to get better at the lifts.
If there’s a broad range of levels interested in participating, I’ll do a beginners group and advanced to cater to everyone’s specific needs:
I want the advanced people who are ready to go heavy, to develop solid technique and reach their potential.. with maximal loads in a kick ass, focused training environment and then have it carry over to WODs.
Beginners will have an opportunity to develop proper movement patterns and do to safely without having to rush. We’ll focus on the skills and drills to prepare the participants for heavier lifting and the full lifts down the road.
If you’re interested, or think you might be interested in the future, in either of these Awesome programs, let me know in comments and/or send an e-mail to AllisonNYC127@gmail.com so I can put you on a list for updates and details.
We may need your feedback for hours/days to run them.
Thanks a bunch. This stuff is going to be great and take our training at CFM to a whole new level!!!

Awesome morning. We got a lot done.
BS 10 x 3 @ 135#
Cash out was great.
220 10×3 @ 220 (315 1 rep max)
I like the idea of an Olympic Lifting class, but I like the idea of the training cycles.
…and oh…OF COURSE I’d be in for an Oly lifting class.
Need all the help I can get. Please include me.
@Allison – I would be interested in learning more about the Endurance Club
my post made no sense. What I meant to say is that an oly lifting class is great, but I prefer the cycles that we do in class.
BS: 105 for first three sets and then 115 for following seven.
I am interested in the endurance club & oly club for sure!
BS 10×3 @ 95#
Never did a one rep max but did 3 reps @ 115 so assumed one rep max would be around 130.
Cash Out-
20 turkish get ups- 8kg
did 5 at a time per side
banded good mornings
i have no idea what’s going on, but i’m down for oly class!
Sweet!

Green BGMs. Need to work on my lower back, perfect.
All in all, I walked out slower than I walked in and stairs now hurt. Great workout.
