The Evolution:
1)KB triplet
2)2 heavy OH press + Long Heavy Carry
3) TUG-o-WAR + Reverse TUG-o-WAR
Peak-performance:
The 10 Hz alpha brainwave frequency is commonly referred to as a “peak performance” state of mind or being “in the zone.” There has been conclusive evidence from studies with professional basketball players and golfers that show alpha brainwaves increasing in their “left hemispheres” just before making a free-throw or shooting a great golf shot. In players that did not make the shot, beta brainwaves flooded their left-hemisphere. It seems that “over thinking” (beta brainwaves) or “under thinking” (theta brainwaves) are detrimental to gameplay. The study was also proved by comparing elite marksmen to novice marksmen. The elite marksmen showed a big burst of alpha in their left-brain hemisphere before their perfect shots. Professional athletes are much more likely to show the alpha rhythm, while novices and intermediate players show virtually none! It seems that the 10 Hz alpha brainwave is the best brainwave for athletes and marskmen looking to improve their performance and overall game.

EFC's Main Site
***READ THIS FIRST***
Be smart. This is dangerous physical training. The evolutions (daily workouts) on this site are completed under professional and well educated supervision. This blog is intended to inspire and chart the growth of our clientele, it is not intended in any way to be a suggested workout plan for any person who is not under our direct supervision and guidance. Should you choose to do any of the evolutions or movements on this site you do so at your own risk. EFC (Extreme Fitness Concepts) is not responsible for any negative consequence you may encounter as a result of your choosing to do this intense form of physical activity.
Extreme Fitness Concepts
Extreme Fitness Concepts (EFC) is a fitness ideology that combines multiple energy systems in a short durational high intensity training session to create a superior level of balanced fitness. Psychology is a key factor in EFC training as breaking through mental plateaus is essential to complete the day’s evolution. We train minds. We train the spirit. We develop philosophies and test them daily. Through physical exhaustion we seek the higher self.
The Energy Systems:
strength, speed, power, endurance, philosophy, spirit.
The Movements:
Olympic lifts, Power lifts, Kettlebell movements, Sandbag training, Bodyweight movements, and improvised object implementation.
The Evolution:
An EFC session is known as an evolution. After your session, you are not the same person that you were prior to it. Therefore, you have evolved in some way, however subtle it may be. An EFC evolution can lasts between a few minutes to an hour. It is essential that the session is treated like an event. Start with a goal and race for it. A typical evolution leads to full systemic overload. The heart of the evolution is the goal orientated completion of a task working against personal bests.

Kettlebell trio: pair of 30 lbs, 6 rounds. Tough stuff, especially the manmakers.
OH Press and carry: 105 lbs press, varying loads on the carry. 7 and four-fifths rounds in all. If I'd hussled a bit more early on, I could've finished that 8th round. Ah well. Also, after about 4 or 5 rounds, it was REALLY hard to keep it to a strict press.
Tug-o-War + Reverse: I have no idea. There was much screaming, falling down, and breaking of glass. Good times.
Sorry I've been delinquent in posting my info.
5 rnds + 2 makers at 24kg
4 or 5 rnds of press and carry at 115# and usually carrying 70#dbs around.
I feel like I've been hitting my groove again in the past couple of weeks. Hit a slump there and was getting my ass kicked by the workouts. Your post about brainwaves and "the zone" strikes a cord. There was a stretch there, due to lack of rest, or focus, or...whatever, I really wasn't able to settle into that range of work. Maybe it's due to the forced extended training for the comp later this month, but I'm really starting to be able to sink right into it again.
1ere: 7 rounds + 2 mm @ 35#
2eme: 5 or 6 rounds of press @ 85#
4 rounds part 1 with 50lbs
7 or 8 rounds at 135lbs
broken glass rules!
sorry missed last week but will be back this week. Work is working me hard lately!
