A long warm up and good early stretching today. Aim for elbows high and your torso upright through the lifts. Get good torso prep before starting and lots of slow hip flexibility work after. Take your time and spend as much total time on your mobility as your lifts!
Front squats 2-2-2-2-2-2 reps
This Saturday will be the 31 Heroes WOD. We'll start at 0800 and run pairs through until you are all done. This butt kicking and fun partner workout is for a great cause. Show up and partner up or bring an unsuspecting CrossFit friend to join you. The ice bath will help you recover!
Tomorrow Coach Eric Burkhardt of Explosive Strength Athletics will put on a short seminar on Oly lifting starting at 5:30. It's small group session and there are a couple spots available. Coach Burkhardt has worked as a head S&C coach at universities throughout the state in his long career and we hope to have him working with us on an intermittent basis in the future. This session runs about $85 and if you want to get one of the last one or two spots please call.
