Today's WOD we did one of my favorite lifts, the Front Squat. There is just something about this lift that I love over the back squat. Toes, pointed, chest up, drive with your elbows!! Sometimes you will be rewarded with a nice bruise near your collarbone. At least you know you had it close! This is perfect that this WOD came up because I'm getting ready to start the 6 week cycle of CFSB but I would like to find out where I stand on certain sets and lifts. This just happens to be one of them. One down, more to go. I can tell you, I was freaking tired after this. I did however get a second wind due to the 5 minutes of AMRAP for double unders we did after. That should be no surprise because Tiggers like to bounce!
Front Squat 3-3-3-3-3
185-195-205-215-225 (2)
While performing the squats I was really focusing on keeping my toes pointed and pushing my knees out making sure they did not bow in. I feel overall I have pretty good body awareness. For example I can tell when my foot was more than slightly pointed without having to stop and look and readjusted accordingly. Also to keep the core tight. If you don't have a tight core, you are not getting back up. That is not what happened in the last set. I just plain ran out of gas.
5 min. AMRAP Double Unders
Total:300
I did hit a PR (technically on both) with the double unders. 93 unbroken
