WOD BRIEF:
Squats are the best way to start our week. Overhead squats today to test every ounce of strength we have, core, leg, shoulder, lats, etc. The overhead squat is a challenging lift, and not one where we are able to move as much weight as perhaps we would like, as we progress our mobility increases, our strength increases and the overhead squat becomes less daunting. It’s not a lift to take lightly or to leave out of our training! So spend time mobilizing, and dive into 6×5 overhead squats, ascending in weight as able.
The wod today is going to be a fun challenge of a heavy barbell, and some high heart rate inducing work. The cluster is the only movement that’ll make you appreciate it’s younger sibling, the thruster…as it is a combination of a squat clean+thruster with each rep. Scale accordingly and keep those lifts looking good, next hop on the bar for some toes to bar, and lastly CRUSH the double under action to keep this wod as spicy as it is intended to be.
