864 Strength + Conditioning – Get after it today! 

For this is the will of God, that by doing good you should put to silence the ignorance of foolish people. Live as people who are free, not using your freedom as a cover-up for evil, but living as servants of God.
-1 Peter 2:15-16

“If this country is ever demoralized, it will come from trying to live without work.”
Abraham Lincoln

Wall-ball shots
Box step-ups
AbMat sit-ups

Repetitions of Strict Pull-ups – then kipping. You should never attempt to kip on any movement until you have established the strength to complete strict reps of the movement. Be patient and work harder at getting strong.
11-12-18 / Greg Glassman Regrets Teaching Kipping Pull-Ups in CrossFit Workouts. The CEO and inventor of CrossFit explains why the kipping pull up should be devalued.
Greg Glassman: “If I was starting over, I would devalue the kipping pull-up and let it occur naturally. People that can’t do strict pull-ups and are trying to kip are wrong.”

Include strict movements in your skill work today.

RX Movement Standards:
Wall Ball Shots = Full ROM. Parallel or below. Ball starts / and is caught at center of chest / not from shoulder.
Box = 24/20 without weight. Full extension of the hips on the top of the box.
Sit-ups = Full ROM. Back to mat. No rounded backs at the top of the rep. No sloppy form
