If you didn’t go heavy overhead yesterday, do that today, otherwise…

5 x 3 Back Squats

3 Rounds
-Run 200m with medball 20/15
-25 Squats
-15 Knees-to-elbows

I was really excited about everyone’s overhead work yesterday. Big loads went up but even better was the self diagnosis of any faults that occurred. When you know what went wrong, right or could have been better with your own lifts it shows an uncommon level of understanding of the lifts and also a desire and interest to do things properly. 5×5 heavy jerks is a tough challenge. Everyone did a great job going after intimidating weights, using good technique, and set new PRs.

Brit seems to be happy to be deadlifting. I was happy about her rigid spine.
