WOD: Push Jerk: 5-5-5-5-5 5 rounds for total reps – 2 minutes work, 1 minute rest:10 Deadlifts 225/15540 Lateral Bar HopsMax Ball Slams 40/30 Post results/thoughts to comments Nice job on the jerks today guys. While some of you worked through your sets as push press, you ultimately want to get that jerk dialed down and get your body moving under the bar. If you can get under the bar you’ll move more weight. Way to push hard on the met-con, as usual it might have looked easy on the board, but boy was it a burner. Keep it up, see you tomorrow. Cheers. Up and over the bars Therin overhead for a ball slam Getting after it – Jade

WOD: Work Your Weakness Strength: 20 minutes (Pick 2 movements. These movements must be strength based. Pick a rep range between 1-5 and a weight, if applicable, to match the rep range.

Work Your Weakness Met-con:  12 minute AMRAP (This must be a couplet. So pick 2 movements, pick the weights where applicable, and reps ranges for both the movements.
