Weekly WOD Review 6/21/21
Monday
If you attended class last week, you have another chance to practice your Push Jerks today. If you feel comfortable with the Push Jerk, or if you would like to learn the Split Jerk, you’re more than welcome to do that as well! Similar to the past few weeks, you’ll have the option to add a run before your lift to give you more of a conditioning stimulus. Have caution adding in a stimulus that elevates your heart rate while you’re still learning a new skill. More times than not, individuals tend to learn bad habits when they’re not prepared enough.

Wednesday
There is an opportunity to learn the Overhead Squat if you’d like, or feel free to practice your Front Squats more today. You’ll have the choice to strictly focus on strength or add a small amount of conditioning stimulus as well.
If focusing on strength, it is very important to rest and recover as must as possible before each set. It may seem boring, but it will help you stay safe as your progressing or continuing to learn the movement.
If focusing on conditioning, try and stay consistent with your calories. This is a good test on combining two different means of power output.

Thursday
This may seem like a new format to some, but I assure you it’s pretty straight forward! You’ll essentially perform the same 3:00 AMRAP for a total of 5 sets. The reps are relatively small, so it’s important to keep moving and avoid too much muscle fatigue early on. After each 3:00 AMRAP, you’ll have a 1:00 rest and you’ll pick up the next 3:00 AMRAP where you left off. At the end of the day, you’ll have 1 score!
A)
5 Cycles
