Another way to use the clock

We’re entering a new cycle this week that will have a number of different themes that we’ll see throughout.  One that will be showing up regularly is the idea of doing strength work on a specific interval.  This isn’t to add a metabolic element to this portion of class, but rather to keep us focused and on task.  Once we have our front squats, we’ll be hitting a working set every 3 minutes.  As soon as the set is over, we’ll adjust any weights we need to and get into a mobility piece to help keep us limber and ready for the next set.  This will be more directed and focused than our strength work often is, but stick with it and you’ll get a lot out of it.

    FS: 155#

    WOD: 13:20 with 25# DB – Joanna – you killed it!! Knew you would.

  4. Lydia says:

    FS: 65#, but then form suffered. Lighter had better depth than ever, though!
    WOD: 14:04? with 20# DB. Shoulda tried the 25# DBs that the badass women of 6:30am had rocked.

    Awesome work in both 6:30 and 7:30!
