Athlete Notes:
-Today is a great day to consider using a slightly higher box than normal. And if you really want to push it, go considerably higher and do Box Get Overs.
-Don’t be afraid to push yourself on the Back Squat today. It should feel heavy, but just remember the volume is low.
-Consider the Bike your recovery before going back to the Squats, but still be vigilant to keep a steady pace here.
-You should aim to get between 5 to 7 rounds over the 16 minute duration.

Tuesday

L2: 75/55lb, 95/65lb, and 115/75lb (RX)
L1: 55/35lb, 75/55lb, and 95/65lb

Athlete Notes:
-Today is a great skill / capacity workout. The focus is to accumulate as many reps as possible in each AMRAP.
-You'll notice the loading of the Power Snatches is on the heavier side, however, the volume is low on all sets so the goal should be to work through those reps at a consistent pace. (Reminder, if you need to drop today, make sure you grab pads.)
-For the gymnastics work, ideally you should be scaling those reps to complete the volume each round either unbroken or within two sets maximum. The intent is that each round is a slightly harder version of the prior. Feel free to scale this movement as needed to achieve this. It may mean you start with something other than Pull-Ups and work up to that. Scaling options include: Ring Rows, Elevated Ring Rows, Jumping Pull-Ups, and Band Assisted Pull-Ups.

Wednesday
Conditioning
Rowing Intervals

16 min AMRAP
20/14 Calorie Row Sprint

Rest 2:00 after each sprint

WOD – descending ladder for time, 12 min cap

10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 of:
Power Cleans
Strict Handstand Push-Ups

L3: 135/95lb
L2: 115/75lb (RX)
L1: 95/65lb

Athlete Notes:
-Classic weightlifting and gymnastics couplet today. The primary objective of this workout is to complete it under the time cap. And the secondary objective today is focusing on the Strict Handstand Push-Ups.
-Select a Barbell weight you can hold quick singles on, doing touch and go reps in the later rounds.
-For the Strict Handstand Push-Ups, scale these to ensure they're challenging but also sustainable. You can look to reduce the volume, reduce the range of motion (use a pad), or change the movement itself to ensure you're progressing your capacity in this skill (such as Kipping Handstand Push-Ups or Box Pike Handstand Push-Ups).
