Feel: Reach / Pace: Gas

Push the run to give yourself as much time as possible on the Toes to Bar and Box Jumps. Once you get inside, drop your intensity a bit and settle into a rhythm you can maintain. Your Toes to Bar should be something you can hang on to for three to four reps of for a few rounds. Ramp your pace up again in the final few minutes.

Workout Brief

Feel: Triple Threat / Pace: Full Send!

Today’s workout is about skill and accuracy. In the strength, if your technique is consistent, go for a new PR. If the Snatch is something you’re still working on, find the threshold weight that is challenging, but you’re still moving well with, and accumulate volume at that load. Only go up if you can maintain good technique. In the workout, manage your shoulder fatigue on the Snatches and Wall Walks – you want to go fast, but be sure not to burn out in the first round.
