2016 CrossFit Games

[Tristan Hoyle]

Hi, I'm Tristan Hoyle and I am currently 15 Years old. I have made a goal to get to the CrossFit Games in 2016. I am currently nowhere near where I need to be and everyday I will have strength, skills and usually 2 MetCons. If you wish to follow along or post encouragement please do. The timetable for me right now looks like this:

2013: Compete In the Open
2014: Compete and Place in the top 100 in my Region
2015: Make Regionals
2016: Make and Finish in the top 3 in my Region

I'm going to be working primarily in a 3 day Skills/Strength cycle:

Day 1: Gymnastics
Day 2: Olympic Lifting
Day 3: Powerlifting (OH Presses instead of Bench)

It's going to be a long road but I know I can make it. It's going to be a lot of hard work but I know I can do it. Here we go...

Just got back from St. George, Utah. Feeling a little rusty but pretty good overall.

Gymnastics Work:

Ring Push-Ups: 100 in sets of 15 and one set of 10

Pull-Ups: 50 in sets of 5, definitely My biggest weakness and will be on every gymnastics day.

MetCon:

40-30-20-10

Anerican Swings
Ab-Mat Sit-Ups

Time:8:49

Overall a light day. Going to go back at it hard tomorrow.

I applaud you for setting a goal like that!!! Don't let anyone tell you that you cannot do it either.....
It'll be a long, difficult road but I don't have to tell you that. Good luck in your journey and I'll def be following your progress.

Another light day. Had almost no time at the gym today with my High School Match. Just a WOD and some Squats.

Front Squat: 5-5-5 95, 115, 125
T2B: 30 in sets of 10
Pull-Ups: 25 in sets of 5

WOD:

2 Rounds for Time:

40 Push-Ups
30 Wall-Balls
20 Box Jumps

Time: 9:07 with a 14Lb WallBall

Wallballs are definitely on my weakness list.

Completely strained for time right now with High School Season. Really working my gymnastics right now, easiest with the time issue.

Pull-Ups: 50 in Sets of 5
T2B: 50 In Sets of 5

WOD:

5 Min AMRAP Burpees
Rest 5 Minutes
5 Minute AMRAP Walking Lunges

Score: 74 Burpees+ 158 Walking Lunges= 242 Total

A pretty decent day. No gymnastics tomorrow. Going to try to get some Oly Lifting in but we have another match so it will be difficult.

Fun day. Not as much time as I thought. Stuff was added to my schedule. I'll have lots of time tomorrow though.

Gymnastics:

Pull-Ups: 100

Ring-Push Ups: 100 (6 Sets of 15, 1 set of 10)

T2B: 25

Hang Snatches: 7x5 at 65Lbs


WOD:

5 Deadlifts (275/185)
10 Burpees

4:38 Scaled to 155lb Deadlift

Deadlift was pretty light, all unbroken, definitely could have gone 30-40lbs heavier. Good day though. Squats, presses and Deadlifts tomorrow.
