The first part of today’s WOD is about improving your movement with two common pieces – double unders and chest to bar pull-ups. For each, choose a rep count that you can perform proficiently, meaning I’d rather you do 4 perfect kipping C2B pull-ups than 10 poor form butterfly reps.

Conditioning 3 Rounds for Time 12 Dumbbell Snatches (50/35) alternating L/R each rep 12 Back Rack Lunges (95/65) 24 Push-ups

Emily was told by doctors that running would likely be out of the question due to pain and danger of re-injury among other activities. After rehabbing, Emily continued to ride off and on but often...

Remember only use these percentages if form allows and STOP your set if form degrades. If last week was easy challenge yourself today and go heavier on the KB swings. On paper our met-con may look easy….wanna get the most out of it?
