Hybrid Strength CrossFit Gymnastics Oly Program

February 25, 2012 By Gregor Winter

In Q&A 20 Justin linked to a Hybrid CrossFit Strength/Metcon program.

Read Gant Grimes “Hybrid Programming” thread if your are interested in combining gymnastics with strength  and Olympic weightlifting training.

The order of exercises is vital. You want speed, technique, and accuracy. You also want full use of your hips:
Warm-up >>> Gymnastics/Progressions >>> Oly Lifts/DE >>> Slow lifts/ME >>> Short strength based metcon (<10 min) >>> Posterior-Chain Movement
