WOD – Tue, Apr 21

Intent

(0-5)
Today we pull heavy from the floor. The goal is to continue to fight for improvements on the load we can pull from the floor. We won’t simply do that by going through the motions. Load up the barbell. Reset on each rep, meaning that you can lower the bar to the ground, reset while keeping the hands on the bar then pull it again. NO touch and go reps today. Why? Because, real strength. Plus, we give you plenty of reps in the workout to practice the touch and go cycling of the barbell. The barbell in the conditioning should be significantly lighter than the loads you were lifting for strength work, and if they aren’t then you should scale more. The sit ups can be done with an abmat, but if you don’t have one that is still RX’d. Swing the arms, sit up fast and get back to the barbell–this workout is to be FAST.
