WOD: 1) Row – 7 sets of: 50 Calories @ “100%” 25 Calories @ “60%” Goal is for maintainable consistent paces.

Use a box height that puts you at parallel or just above. We will be doing box squats for the next 8 weeks so remember what you’re setup is.

Remember the goal is to reach back for the box, get those hamstrings involved, not just sit straight down and make it all quads. 3) Front Rack Box Step-ups: 8/side Every 2:30 x 4 sets Use the same box height you used…

It can also be an opportunity…
