Not dedicated = Cherry Pickers. Checking the 864 site to decide whether you are coming based on the the workout.
Which category do you fall into? Be Strong!

RX – Full ROM. RX KB Load = 24kg./16kg. American Swings
RX Pull-ups = Strict/No Kip. Chin completely over the bar. Chest must touch bar on every rep. Arms fully extended at the bottom.

RX It’s more about movement standard than the amount of weight used or the number of reps completed. If you load a weight that you can’t handle through a full range of motion then consider it a scaled workout. Don’t get so caught up in who’s RX and who is scaled. Focus on your strengths and weaknesses and know the difference.

February Challenge – Thrusters. Accumulate as many Thrusters during the month of February. Score will be total pounds – Reps x Load. All reps that are counted must be at 864 before or after daily workout. There will be two options – RX 95/65 and BEAST MODE 135/95. You have to pick one and stick with it. All reps must be Full ROM/ No half thrusters.
