Strength

Front Squat

  • x 4 x 4 @ RPE 7

Notes

Today’s strength is front squats. You will complete 4 working sets of 4 reps. All 4 working sets should be done at the same weight. The first set should feel like a 7/10 difficulty. This means that when you finish your first set, you should feel like you could have done 3-4 more reps. Take 2-3 minutes rest between sets. If you were here last week, aim to use about 5% more weight today.

Conditioning

Complete 4 rounds for time:

  • 24 Toes to Bar
  • 12 Power Cleans

12:00 time cap

Notes

Today’s workout is a class version of Event 2 from the CrossFit Semifinals. Your score is the time to complete 4 rounds or the number of rounds and reps completed under the 12-minute time cap. This is a difficult time cap under which to get 4 rounds done.

The toes to bar should take no more than 1:30 to complete each round. Keep the sets small and your rest breaks short so that you do not hit failure.

The power cleans should be done with a moderate weight. Quick singles would be an appropriate strategy.
