String ’em

Nick | 01/13/2016 | 3

The training we do here isn’t about the movements we do as much as it’s what we can learn and change about ourselves through said movements.  Our goal for our strength work today is more skill related, so our push press (or shoulder to overhead in general) can be a more effective tool in a WOD.  We’re going to keep the focus on being able to string our reps together, that is, to not pause in the front rack position in between reps but instead use the dip we absorb the weight with on teh way down to load our springs to send it right back up.  Pause at the top to find your lock out, but send it right back up as it comes down.  You’ll get a chance to practice this in context at the end of class…
