WOD: 1) Back Squat: 5 Reps Every 2:00 for 7 sets Warm-up as needed. Start at 60% of your 1RM or heavier. Within the first 6 sets you must establish a 5RM for the Day. Your 7th set is a Max Reps sets done at 85% of your 5RM for the day. To get the proper stimulus from this it is inherit you establish an appropriate max otherwise your 85% Max Reps set will be far too light. 2) 3 rounds AQAP: 15 Thrusters 65/45 12 Push-ups 9 Pull-ups Extra Work: 3) Good Morning: 4 sets of 10 Rest 90-120 seconds between sets. Heavy as possible. 4) Double-unders: 10 minutes Practice Goal should be to work to 100 unbroken. For results post detailed weights, reps, times, thoughts, etc. for all work completed HERE
