About every other month we send out a gym newsletter with the intention of highlighting certain things and drawing attention to upcoming opportunities. We sent one out earlier this week, if you did not receive (make sure to check your junk mail) and would like to get on our mailing list, be sure to let us know.

Also - remember no class this Saturday (April 27th) at 11am, because we are hosting a handstand/handstand walking clinic from 11-12:30ish. Open to anyone wanting to build confidence and capacity in the handstand position. Free to all members, $20 cash drop in price for non-members. This will be a great opportunity for all levels of athlete!

Tuesday Apr. 23

Strength

A. Hang Squat snatch work
4:00 EMOM
x2 @ 60-70% of 1RM

**This should start and feel like an extension of the warm up

THEN:
3x2 @ 75%+
3x1 @ 85%+
Rest 60-90 between your sets

B. Tempo FS work
6x3 1 and 1/4 front squats
With this new movement the goal is learn how to rectuit the proper muscles to develop power out of the bottom of our squats.
Technique still prioirty over loading, but barbell should be heavier than last week.

Conditioning

Open/FTNS:
5:00 to accumulate as many reps as possible
power snatch (75/55)
WBs

*can only switch movements once.

MVMT:
5:00 to accumulate as many reps as possible
hang power snatch (45/35)
WBs (14/10)

*can only switch movements once.

*Decide which of the two movements is a strength, then allocate about 3:00 to that one and 2:00 to the movement with which you are less comfortable. You only get to switch once, so be smart when you choose to do so. The 5:00 timeframe means you are trying to move with speed for the start!
