All 5 sets of Push Press should be HEAVY! For the Plyo Push-ups you absolutely CANNOT sacrifice range of motion. Full chest to the deck with knees, quads, and hips all off the ground in the bottom, from there we want to see you explode at least a couple of inches off the ground, and through straight arms, we don’t want to see you pull your arms off the ground.

WOD: 1) 20 minute AMRAP:5 Unbroken Chest-to-bars10 Unbroken Overhead Squats 135/9520 Unbroken Double-unders For results post total rounds plus reps along with any scaling.Post results/thoughts to comments Great job today everybody. In our bleary eyed state this morning we wrote the workout wrong, it was supposed to be 5 Overhead Squats, and 10 Chest-to-bars. Regardless the first class did it as written so we left it that way for everybody. That was a lot of heavy Overhead Squats, great work. Whether you did this workout as an Unbroken workout or not, way to go, it was tough.

Champlain Valley CrossFit: Monday, June 25th, 2012

WOD: 1) 3-Position Power Snatch: 1-1-1-1-1-1-1 In this drill you will start at the high hang or “pockets” and perform one Power Snatch, then drop to just above the knee and perform one Power Snatch, and then touch and go off the floor for a third Power Snatch. At no time can you let go of the bar during the 3 reps. Build to a heavy set, but this is more of a technical drill, so don’t go so heavy form starts breaking down. Rest no more than 90 seconds between sets.2) 12 minute AMRAP:4 Handstand Push-ups8 Sumo Deadlift High-pulls 115/8312 Box Jumps 24/20 For results post heaviest set of 3-Position Power Snatch, and rounds plus reps for Met-con, along with any scaling.Post results/thoughts to comments Nice work on the Snatches today everybody, and way to not let get the weight into your mind….

Goals

We know you’ve got them, so put them up. The board has been filling up little by little this month. This thing will get erased every quarter, so you’ve got now until September (we got it up late for the 2nd quarter of the year) to put something up and do it. It can be as little or as big as you want we don’t care, 1 Pull-up, Deadlift 400lbs, Eat Strict Paleo for a week, whatever it is, put it up there. – Jade
