Intended Stimulus
Push the pace today on the row… don’t treat the rowing like a warm up to some relatively heavy presses. And yes, these presses are heavy enough to need 2-3 sets per round. Once that barbell hits the ground after 21, 15, 9… get right into the seat, strap in and GO. Not as if you’re going to set a 500m PR… but as if every stroke counts. This couplet intentionally ends on a row. You KNOW you’re done and the idea is to really get after the pace on that final 1k! At your workout load, you should NOT be able to get more than 10-12 reps in a given set… while you are fresh! So you get the idea that the presses will be done in about 3 sets (most likely). Take the first few stokes on the row as you gain your composure and understand, truly, that you WILL die someday… but it won’t be as a result of pushing hard on today’s workout! Be brave. When you have about 100m remaining of the first 2 row sets- start to back off and get ready for the barbell work. On your final set of row- finish strong. Substitute the rows with 400, 600, 1000m run or .7, 1.0, 1.7 mile bike. Ski substitutions are the same as the row.
Powerful hip extension + skillful hip flexion + more powerful hip extension. That what we have here with this rather short, pointy, gymnastics + weightlifting triplet. Aim to start fast and hang on for unbroken sets on the KB Swings and TTB (ok, maybe break once on these!). Test yourself with the box height today. You should have to wind up for each jump. Think hip hinge to load the hamstrings, then use the arms for momentum, explode, and softly land on top of the box. No misses today, but jump tall boxes!

With our Snatch specialty series coming to an end this week AND with lots of 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.
