Strength/Skill:
Front squat 3×6 80%
Met-Con:
Hitman
4rds
10 Front squats 155/105
10 pull ups
10 bar facing burpees
Focus on driving up against the bar with the whole hand. This is called an active rack. You can front squat a lot more for reps this way. The WOD is a burner. It is designed to max out the glycolytic energy system and should feel sort of like Fran. Us weights that can be done unbroken.

Work on cycling the reps effeciently on the EMOTM. Don’t try to PR, Get to 70-80%. The key to oly lifts is always trying to make them look pretty. The box jump overs are there to encourage people to bring it on the CJ. Get as many as you can that first minute and then try and hang on!

24 Russian Kettlebell Swings 70/53
24 Goblet squats
24 Goblet lunges
24 True push ups
6 rope climbs
Work up to 80% on the deadlift. Today is meant to be more aerobic without a ton of volume. If it were me, I’d break everything in half to keep the pace fast. The goblet squats and lunges are meant to complement the deadlifts.

Strength:
EMOM x 4 min -Hang Snatch 3
EMOM x 4 min- Hang Snatch 2
EMOMx4 min Hang snatch 1
Met-Con:
4 rounds for time
5 hang squat snatch 60%
25 wall balls 20/14
50 double unders
We program hang snatch to drill pulling fast under the bar. It also doesn’t tax the lower back. Don’t go heavier in the WOD than weight you can move fast. 60% should allow unbroken sets. And what would a week be without Dbl unders.
