WOD – Mon, Apr 8

Intent

Today is very barbell-centric. We get after it out the gate with some touch and go work on the barbell. AKA weighted jumping jacks–hey, it could work as a title! The EMOM should start light and build to a load that primes for the workout or surpasses our previous best. The conditioning today is a beast. The weight shouldn’t necessarily feel light enough to do touch and go reps, singles will do, and it should challenge you. But you must be sure to select a load that allows for 3 CJ to happen in under :35 every set, this gives :10 per rep approximately and you must be able to get 5 unbroken front squats at once each round, even if there are pauses in there. Sub 15:00 is a must for everyone to finish, scale accordingly.
