WZA qualifier: That got grippy real fast! 357. If I were to do this again I think I would push the pace on the overhead squats a bit faster. Kept thinking pace, move steady rather than rushing but in hindsight it was more time holding the bar. Du’s Unbroken, hang snatch started breaking on the 15’s, unbroken ohs. A) Dead stop FS@ 175 B) 125/145/165/180/195. Watched the video that you sent me last week tino and focused on the vertical drive more. C) 3@165, 5@145, 7@125, 9@105. All du and mu unbroken, legs a little jelly after the qualifier wod!… Read more »
When we had people test this that wasn’t the biggest takeaway. They were waiting for it to get metabolically taxing but didn’t. On those overhead squats learn to pop and drop. Too many athletes start to pause at the top which wastes a lot of time over the course of this workout! If you decide to redo, push the pace and trust your fitness!

Good day of learning! Like I keep saying you got to trust your fitness!!! Kick straight up and see what happens, I mean what’s the worst that can happen?! You come down, reset and go again!
Warmup done
A) 245
B) Stayed at 225
C) did the qualifier – 385 (7/24 hps). Pretty eh with this score, I don’t overhead squat very well, so this one was damage control for me. Hoping I don’t have to do it again on Monday.
Called it a day here, live to fight again tomorrow
Nice work Buddy. Hit the second workout hard then see how you feel come Monday. I’d like to see you in the 400’s
Yeah 400 was my goal going in – I’ll take a look at my video and figure out where I lost so much time. Any thoughts on what I should be shooting for on the second one?
Get back to the pull-ups!!
