Tomorrow’s Suffer on Saturday moved to the gym due to expected rain. See you at 9:00 A.M.

“Helen”

3 rounds for time:

  • Run 400m
  • 21 KB Swings, 1.5 pood
  • 12 Pull-ups

In this morning’s 7:30 class there was more handstand practice and Mike E. recommended we all check out some of the tutorials over at Beast Skills. I second that recommendation.

You Gotta Get Up To Get Down

Below is a nice example of the top of a dumbbell clean. Some of us struggle to get full triple extension at the top of the clean. Nick could get a tiny bit more hip extension with a slight lean back at the shoulders but his position here is pretty good. You can also get a good visual of the upward momentum by looking at the movement of Nick’s t-shirt. At this point he is already on his way down to the squat where he’ll receive the dumbbells. Nick gets bonus points for use of his tongue in the dumbbell clean.
