Hey Friends!
Awesome day of cleans! Man 3 reps is SO much harder than 2 reps (more than 50% harder, I swear!) The deadlift/box jump WOD was fun, and a good reminder that some of these Open WODs are completely open to strategizing, and that it can make a big difference (like stepping up versus jumping, dropping from the top of your deadlift, etc.)
Don’t forget – not this weekend but on the following week we’re having folks out for our Winter fun WOD day (I forgot what we actually called it). Boom-Pow!

Be careful with the first round on this once since coming out too fast on it will guarantee making the later rounds much harder. This combination will be particularly hard on the shoulders if you don’t use your hips to get the bar overhead and on the wall ball. Avoid pressing the snatches. On the wall ball, utilize the ‘wrist flip’ technique and, if you can, try and not extend your arms overhead completely.
