Just a little throwback to last April when we were able to get close to each other!

We are excited to be starting our third week of online Zoom WOD’s, which means we’re one week closer to getting back in the gym! But for now the Zoom times are 7:00am, 12:00pm, and 4:30pm, Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Heather will also be teaching a Recovery/Mobility Zoom class this week, day/time to be determined. Just click on the links that are provided on the website. Be patient with us as this is all new and we are still learning.

DOUBLE DUMBBELL MOVEMENTS

*Choose your weight based off the more challenging movement – which will likely be the thrusters
*This should be a load that you feel confident completing for 20+ reps when fresh
DOUBLE UNDERS
*The number on the rope is designed to be very small
*This should be a number that you can complete in 30 seconds or less
*See further down the page for modifications

TEACHING
GRIP
*Holding onto dumbbell handles and jump rope handles can make this workout fairly grippy
*It may be helpful to use the hook grip on the power cleans if possible
*If you’re unable to do so – breaking up the power cleans into smaller sets can preserve your grip
*On the thruster, relaxing your grip can help you better keep the bells in contact with your shoulders for a strong drive overhead
*On the rope, relaxing the hands can make it easier to to rotate from the wrists instead of the shoulders
TIPS
*Break up the power cleans in a way that allows you to thrive on the thrusters
*Resting with 1 rep to go on the power cleans can enable you to work through bigger sets on the thrusters
*For Example: On the set of 6 power cleans, you would rest as needed after the 5th rep – then complete the 6th power clean – then immediately transition to the set of 6 thrusters
*Since the power cleans come back to the ground each time – this is the best movement to break up in the workout

DAILY MINDSET
“Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don’t matter and those who matter don’t mind.”
~Dr. Seuss
People aren’t thinking about you.
What people are thinking about – is what you’re thinking about them.
We’ve all been in this rabbit hole… moving about our day wondering what others think of us. In an effort to please everyone, to “look right” in their eyes. Again, we’ve all been there.
Taken from a children’s book, this quote is anything but childish. In a world where we can be consumed with the thoughts of anothers… we can realize that there’s only one opinion that matters. With every other one being background noise.
