WOD – Wed, Apr 24

Intent

Today we get gymnasty. We let the lower body have some reprieve and focus on developing skills and capacity in the upper body. The goal is that you improve and develop your upside down skills before we ever get to conditioning. Ever seen a gymnast with small arms or shoulders? Yea….me either, so don’t be stubborn when it comes to training like one. Get here, get focused, get better. Your body, your performance and your confidence will follow.
