- 12 hang squat snatch (95/65#)
1:30 rest between rounds

Coaches Notes
Strength/Skill: 6 lunges per leg. athletes can step forward or backward. focus on torso positioning.

WOD: Other than generally working faster, this workout is a success for an athlete if they:
1) maintain larger sets on the snatch
2) limit rest to after each round

scale snatch weight so athlete only has to break once each round.

WOD - 12 min amrap
- 8 toes to bar
- 16 single arm db clean & jerk (50/35#)
- 32 double unders

Coaches Notes
Strength/Skill: athletes should shoot for 75-80% of their last established 1RM. if they missed the 1RM rest last week, have them max out today. focus on keeping the core stabilized and the scaps retracted.

WOD: Other than generally working faster, this workout is a success for an athlete if they:
1) avoid breaking the toes to bar into more than 2 sets
2) focus on limiting rest in double unders; if you trip up, get started again as fast as possible

scale toes to bar and db clean & jerk so athletes only break once. clean & jerk are 8 per arm, 16 total reps. scale double unders to 2 sets of double under attempts + 30 singles, 60 singles, or 20 lateral hops over dumbbell.

WOD: Other than generally working faster, this workout is a success for an athlete if they:
1) maintain a solid pace on the row
2) break up the wall balls in manageable sets that allow the athlete to keep moving

WOD: Other than generally working faster, this workout is a success for an athlete if they:
1) don't break on the farmers carry

Coaches Notes
Strength/Skill: ensure these are as strict as possible. don't allow athletes to bend in the hips at all. focus should be on keeping the entire body tight. avoid any hyperextension in the torso that recruits the chest muscles.

WOD: Other than generally working faster, this workout is a success for an athlete if they:
1) consistent on their row pace
2) limit rest to when each round is finished

scale devils press so they don't have to break more than once per round. scale cal row if it takes more than 1:20 to complete. if an athlete finishes early, they get extra rest


Wednesday
Strength / Skill
turkish get-ups
spend 5 mins building to a challenging weight, then
every 2 minutes for 5 rounds complete 2 TGUs on each side

WOD - 7 min amrap
500m bike
6 power snatch (135/95#)

3 min rest

7 min amrap
500m bike
12 power snatch (95/65#)

Coaches Notes
Strength/Skill: athletes need to focus on proper technique here. it's very easy to overload this movement or put your shoulder into a compromised position. athletes should pick a weight that allows them to complete the 4 total reps without rest between them. athletes should alternate arms between each rep. can use either KB or DBs.

WOD: Other than generally working faster, this workout is a success for an athlete if they:
1) maintain a steady pace on the bike
2) focus on receiving the barbell with locked out arms on the snatch

scale bike to 250 row/200m run. scale snatch weight so athletes can stay consistent with the heavy weight (quick singles okay) and hit sets of at least 6 on the light weight.

1) hang onto the barbell as long as possible
2) keep rounds to a similar time, avoid sprinting the first round and burning out

scale run to 500m row/1000m bike. scale barbell to a weight they only have to break once per round.

WOD: Other than generally working faster, this workout is a success for an athlete if they:
1) break up the pulling movement to avoid burn out
2) avoid breaking up the squatting/stepping movements

scale pull-ups to banded/jumping. scale toes to bar to v-ups. scale chest to bar to banded/jumping. the chest to bar should be more range of motion compared to the pull-ups.

WOD: Barbell weights should allow for sets of at least 10 reps when fresh. Kettlebell weights should allow for sets of at least 15 reps when fresh.

Other than generally working faster, this workout is a success for an athlete if they:

WOD: Toes to bar scale to hanging leg or knee raises. HSPU scale to 4 wall walks or 13 challenging z-press. If athletes scale to z-press and can do an unbroken set on the first round, they have scaled too light.

Other than generally working faster, this workout is a success for an athlete if they:
1) Are working on skills that progress towards full handstand push-ups on the wall.

WOD: Other than generally working faster, this workout is a success for an athlete if they:
1) keep manageable sets for the deadlift

2 wall walks
12 alternating db snatch (50/35#)
12 toes to bar

Coaches Notes
Strength/Skill: focus on staying active in the squat the entire time, do not let athletes relax in the bottom position at any time. athletes should be "on tension" the entire time in the squat; looking for active glues and core.

WOD: Other than generally working faster, this workout is a success for an athlete if they:
1) get as close to the wall as possible while doing wall walks
2) rush the transitions between each movement
3) move quickly to get as much rest as possible each round

wall walks can be scaled to 8 challenging Z-press. snatches should be completed unbroken every round. break up the toes to bar early to avoid burning out in the later rounds.

WOD: Other than generally working faster, this workout is a success for an athlete if they:
1) hold onto the barbell as long as possible each round
2) avoid treating the bike like rest

weight should be scaled where each movement can be completed unbroken in the early rounds.
