Deadlift
1-1-1-1-1-1-1

We had 4 PR’s today! Great work, everyone!!

Skills:
Sections 1-4 of The Burgener Warm-Up WMV MOV
Section 1: Power Position into a triple extension and shrug
Section 2: S1 + Scarecrow position with the elbows high and outside
Section 3: S1+S2 + External Rotation for a Muscle Snatch
Section 4: With the Bar overhead you transition from your pulling foot position into your receiving foot position. Make some noise!

The hard soles of Olympic Weightlifting shoes:
Do not compress under load which eliminates instability.
Cause downward forces to be transfered more directly.
Have raised heels which increase the ankle’s potential range of motion and lead to a more acute knee angle

These benefits are true for both the fast and slow lifts. You can purchase a pair Here

5 Rounds For Time of:
5 Presses
20 Lateral Jumps Over the Barbell
5 Squat Cleans
5 Thrusters

Skills:
We worked on the Power Position and Scoop with PVC’s.

Demo

In this workout you move from each of five stations after a minute. Today’s WOD is 4 Rounds of the following stations:

1. Double Unders: a: Doubles  b: Singles divided by 2
2. Kettlebell Swings: a: 20kg  b: 12kg
3. Dumbbell Squat Cleans: a: 30lbs  b: 20lbs

score. One point is given for each rep.

Great work to all the CrossFit South Brooklyn beginners who did an awesome job today learning the CF WU and getting a taste of Cindy. Please remember to do your homework and read "What is Fitness?" by Greg Glassman.
