Lets work on speed under the bar on jerks today, focus on pressing yourself under the bar rather than pushing it over your head. No press-outs count today, make these jerks legit. Our conditioning piece is 10 rounds – short reps on each movement should allow you to move consistently for the entire workout. Your rest period should be limited to your time walking between movements. Scale toes to bar to a volume you can complete quickly without coming on and off the bar. Strength Jerk Practice Take 20 minutes to build to a heavy complex of Power Jerk + Split Jerk 1 +1 Conditioning 10 Rounds for Time 5 Toes to Bar 5 Box Jumps (30/24) 7 Wall Balls (20/14) 7 DB Snatches (50/35) *alt L/R each round *hard cap 20 minutesRead more

Googling workout routines or repeating old college programs, doing what I felt like that day – I had no structure to my workouts. I was always reluctant to the CrossFit world mostly from seeing the “rah-rah” aspect of it that seemed awkward and forced. I thought the heavy Olympic lifting and gymnastic movements were a sure fire way to get hurt. I wrote it off as a waste of time.
