Video courtesy of Alex Yao.  Little motivation to get you going today.  Time to see how honing technique over the past 9+ weeks has worked for us.  Trust in your technique and see what you can move! Since we have been working Power Clean and Power Snatch complexes this cycle, maybe stick with power versions today.  Either way, MOVE SOME WEIGHT!!!

Compare to 2Oct

Video courtesy of CrossFit HQ.  My hope is over the last 9 or so weeks, you have become more comfortable in the front rack position and are able to keep high elbows throughout your Front Squat.  Always lead with the elbows when you come out of the hole, and your Front Squat will be successful.  Aim for heavier weight each set than what you used on 2 Oct.

WOD:

15 Min AMRAP:

10 Toe2Bar

20 Wall Balls (20/14)

10 Burpees

On the Toe2Bar and Wall Ball pieces, think manageable chunks.  Meaning, hit a chunk of reps you know you can hit, pause for a second or two, then hit another chunk.   Those small pauses will let you recover quicker than if you hit failure on either movement and HAD to stop.  For the burpees, just keep moving through them.

 

Scaling Options:

Toe2Bars -> Hanging Knee Raise -> Laying Toe2Bar -> V-ups

Med ball weight -> 14/10 -> as needed
