WOD – Mon, May 13

Intent

Ok team, we kick off this week with fresh legs and full hearts! Go get these squats! Load it up on the low reps and see what you can do while sustaining quality reps and full range of motion. Yes, if you don’t go low enough, it doesn’t count. There is no point in being strong in a short range of motion, you only get strong where you train strength–GET LOW! The conditioning today is short and should be fast. Select a DB load that allows you to know you can do 20 unbroken if it was asked of you. For knees to elbows, believe it or not, you must touch your knees to your literal elbows. This would be a no rep if the leg makes contact with anywhere above or below the elbow, that is in fact NOT the elbow. If you scale and you just hit your arm, that is totally fine, just not RX’d.
