Class: 7 Fit Evaluator: Tucker Jones

Take aways

• communicating the literal points of performance is less important
• Find the primary action and relate that to athletes in a way they can understand
  • wall balls - instead of saying extend your hips to extension.. EXPLODE through the top to finish the rep
• Find ways to cue poor movement of an athlete without getting stuck on them (and leaving everyone else waiting)
  • Give them a cue and take a mental note to return
  • if helpful for everyone, give a cue to individual athlete and then get attention of everyone and go through the cue in a little more detail
• Athletes that are convinced they can’t do something
  • take them aside after class and work with them to show them how they can make progress
  • e.g. can’t touch knee to ground
• Think about the physical space of the workout.
  • Will there be enough room with what the CrossFit class is doing?
  • How many people are you expecting?

Warm up

• Active coaching w/ lot’s of cues
• Always start with foot position with any movement
• PROJECT LOUDER
• Stuck on one athlete

Strength

• demo and movement walk through took much longer than expected with 10 athletes
• good demo
• good job organizing class in lanes
• finding faults (some of the time).. good on DL
• good movement around class
• PROJECT MORE
• Do 10 reps instead of 5
• Demand more of each movement
  • don’t let people get away with 90% effort (hips sagging a little on glute bridge)

Metcon

• encouraging
• good movement around class
• good scaling help w/ med ball
• Didn’t demo all the movements! (burpee)
• demo first then talk technique
• clock management
  • make sure you count up on a ‘for time’ workout
• Run 2nd fan
