When it comes to the dubs, today, “Smooth is Fast”. Keeping a steady rhythm will get you through these better than trying to sprint through the set. Will also allow you to hit the lunges without the legs locking up. Speaking of lunges, biggest thing to remember is to NOT let the knee slam in the ground. Have it just “kiss” the ground. Lastly, squeeze the butt when extending on the Push Press so you don’t accidentally turn them into Push Jerks.
