Attention HP-Athletes:
This week we will be doing some data collection; and would appreciate if you can fill out the following, short, survey. This will help us get a better understanding of what you are trying to accomplish in the short/ long term, and where you stand relative to those goals (based on previous/ upcoming testing). This will also help us get an idea of how many people are currently following each focus group- since a lot of followers do not post on a regular basis and we want to make sure they are accounted for in the group avatar.

New HPA - Power Program:  
HP-Power is a strength biased program that focuses on the proficiency of movement required in the sport of fitness. It is designed to develop full body strength allowing our athletes not just to increase their pressing, squatting, and pulling, but also develop necessary explosive strength to improve gymnastic and Olympic lifting movements. There will be a large emphasis on relative strength, strength endurance, CP battery, Olympic lifting skill and gymnastic skill. The skill oriented design will allow our athletes to fine tune all movement patterns in non-fatigued state.
Who is this program for?
-The avid exercise enthusiast who finds themselves "mix-moshing" strength programs along with main site programing
-The "aerobic monster" who can run for hours, box jump for days, burpee for years but has trouble lifting anything heavier than body weight.
-An athlete who is interested in preparing to take their talents to the grid. They would like to become more efficient at moving the barbell and need to get faster at working in short work periods.
-plain and simple: someone who just wants to get strong, move some weight, and throw their body around on the pullup bar or a pair of rings.  

**For the (1st) six weeks, this program is going to be geared to the average athlete that follows our Gold and Blue Program. Going forward please be sure to post results as it will be able to sway the program design toward the athletes that follow**

Attention HP-Athletes: 
Now that we are beginning the transition to the pre-open training phase it is especially important to post your training results so we monitor volume and intensity as needed (ie- increase of decrease based on your feedback). Our job is to make sure you progress as needed/ reach your full potential come CF-open time and we cannot do that without your feedback.
Thus far a handful of you have done a great job posting your results and we thank you for that, but the majority in this group are not posting regularly or at all. Meaning that the group avatars are only reflecting a small fraction of those following each focus group as we have no data/ feedback from the rest of the followers. Lets try and change that moving forward.

Onward,

High Performance Athlete

F (PM- aerobic power test

**Todays race simulations are supposed to feel as if you are on the grid working with a partner. If you are currently on a team and have a training partner you may be able to match the work of another competitor for your rest times. However, if you are not yet on a team, you will have to program your own rest to simulate the "work/ rest" period equal to that of what happens during a grid match. All of these movements should be done almost as fast as possible with the mindset that you are getting minimal rest to move onto the next station**In a perfect world everyone training for the grid would be able to use these weights and perform these movements however, if you can not do these movements near unbroken (and fast) then scale the weight or modify the movement to the best of your ability**

Monday October 13, 2014-

We've had a few questions this past week about scaling for Muscle Ups and Deficit HSPU in workouts this past week. Particularly on how to scale the movements relative to the workout at hand (ie- preserving the intent of the workout whilst scaling).
We've written up a short document , posted in the HPA competitor's Facebook group ,  with some insight on the topic that will help you decided how to scale on a given day.

-High Performance Athlete 

HPA-Gold:
AM
A. Clean; build to a tough single
B. Clean; 1 rep x8-10 sets @80-85% of "A", rest as needed
C. BS @20x1; 4x5; rest 2-3m
D. 30-50 Strict C2B Pullups- Perfect reps. Not for time.

PM
For Time:
500m Row
25 KBS (1.5/1)
25 Burpee
500m Row
25 Burpee
25 KBS (1.5/1)

*Note limiting factors, pacing stratedgy, and subjective feelings during/after.

**Today's race simulations are supposed to feel as if you are on the grid working with a partner. If you are currently on a team and have a training partner you may be able to match the work of another competitor for your rest times. However, if you are not yet on a team, you will have to program your own rest to simulate the "work/ rest" period equal to that of what happens during a grid match. All of these movements should be done almost as fast as possible with the mindset that you are getting minimal rest to move onto the next station**In a perfect world everyone training for the grid would be able to use these weights and perform these movements however, if you can not do these movements near unbroken (and fast) then scale the weight or modify the movement to the best of your ability**
