With overhead squats and power snatches in the WOD today… it is important to remember that we include relatively complex movement patterns so that each of us improves across a wide variety of activities. That by “working on our weaknesses” we have more to gain that constantly trying to improve aspects of fitness that are already strengths for us as individuals. Also, in learning and improving in movements that increase power AND help increase our neuromuscular conditioning, we get a high degree of transfer to movements that we will more often encounter in real-life activities.
