Week 18: Apr 30 – May 6
This week we will be attempting some unique strength movements that require mindful repetitions to ensure safety, but also because they are newer to some, such as the Russian step up using a barbell. Here are some movement points: Keep the hips level as you step up. Attempt to use the front leg predominantly and avoid pushing off the back legs excessively. Stand tall at the top and raise the knee high. That is just one example of a strength movement this week. As far as the WODs we have (yet again) great variety from a variation of a mini-Murph on Tuesday, to a burpee box jump EMOM on Thursday. Please come rested and mobilized for the classes and as always have a great time!!
