864 STRENGTH + CONDITIONING – Gunny’s Blog / Monday 03.15.2021

864 Strength + Conditioning – Constantly Varied. NO Routines. NO Ruts. Don’t be Boring!

If you look for me wholeheartedly, you WILL find me.
-Jeremiah 29:1:3

If the Creator stood before a million men with the light of a million lamps, only a few would truly see him because truth is already alive in their hearts. Truth can only be seen by those with truth in them. He who does not have Truth in his heart, will always be blind to it.

I like people who don’t need everyone to like them.
–Live Life Happy

The happiest people don’t have the best of everything, they just make the best of everything. Thankful. Grateful. Blessed.

The Constitution’s first three words—We the People—affirm that the government of the United States exists to serve its citizens.

6 Thrusters

10 UB Strict K2E

Movement standards covered as a group before each workout starts. If you aren’t sure about the workout or a movement please be patient we will always cover the movement standards before the workout starts. Don’t get ahead of us…we will not start the workout until everyone knows what we are doing. Thank you!

RX Movement Standards: Form. Form. Form! Train Hard/Train Heavy/Train Smart.
Go as fast as you can without getting sloppy. Do you want to have the fastest time on the board with the sloppiest form? Scale based on your strength/fitness level/level of motivation. Skill Work. Skill Work. Skill Work.

RX – Full ROM. Form First. Proper form is more important than your ego at 864.

RX – Full ROM. Thruster Load – 135/95.  A Thruster above parallel is NOT a Thruster. Box – 24/20.  K2E are strict UB reps. Knees must touch elbows.
