DB Snatch (35/25)
Box Jumps
DB Snatches are total, not per arm. This MetCon is meant to be shorter and fast paced. The power output should be high, so pick a weight that allows you to move through it.
The pull up progression work is meant to get folks closer to pull ups or to strengthen their current pull ups. Hang there and hold as long as possible in each position. If you can't get into either of those positions on your own, you may use a lighter band than you use to do pull ups, or simply work on doing a static hang from the bar with full shoulder extension.
Once you are done, stretch out! People are forgetting to do this and it's going to start showing up in the form of injuries and decreased performance. Hips, hams and shoulders are the hotspots, so hit them hard!

For a limited engagement, I’ll be modeling my newly acquired pink “mankini” this Saturday. Ian has generously donated a dancer’s pole for me to utilize during my modeling routine. Any and all donations would greatly be appreciated. All donations will help supply the CFC frig with delicious, thirst quenching BEER!" Posted in WOD 7/26/10
Trent - you're welcome! I agree with you 100%. I actually found it after my return to a strength day this past Tuesday. It felt SO GOOD to sling some weight! That essay was like a mirror to how my soul felt. Yup, it was that deep. I'm glad you dig it! =)" Posted in WOD 7/24/10

Kaysie- Thank you so much for posting the link to "Iron and the Soul" by Henry Rollins in the forum. A super inspirational and heartfelt essay. I think it eloquently puts words to what most of us feel deep down. For those that have not read it I would definitely recommend you do so.
See you peeps on Monday" Posted in WOD 7/24/10
