Skills Day

Today’s WOD called for 1x1x1x1x1x1x1 of deadlift, but we didn’t do that since jay is still learning the compound oly lifts.

We worked on:

  • Handstand holds (10 second progressions for 10-40 secs.)
  • Kipping pull-ups (Christian worked on butterflies)
  • Deadlift (Jay-135lb, CG-185lb) in sets of 5
  • Power clean form
  • Squat clean form

Results:

Jay is still a little clumsy with compound movements, but has improved quite a bit. We kept the weight light as we’re running a fastĀ  5K race in the a.m. and Jay is still new to the deadlift.

Next time, we’ll crank him up to 155lbs.

…and to our handstand holds up to 1 minute.
