30 second Static Squat Hold
6 Alternating Cossack Squats

Spend extra time today on recovery modalities, such as using NormaTec boots, the Hypervolt massage gun, Compex electrical stimulation, myofascial release techniques or anything else that will help you improve circulation to fatigued muscles and improve your recovery after Monday’s Murph session.

Coaches Note:
Today’s goal is to move nonstop with perfect repetitions for 2 minutes. Yesterday was a tough day for those of us who completed some version of “Murph,” so we are trying to allow for some good active recovery through movement.

I had a fall today, started twice and returned home after the first set. I thought about everything and returned after a few hours to do so. This training was very difficult for me, the last time I did it, the barbell fell off, I couldn’t handle it. Today all ohs were ub, it was more difficult for me MU, although they usually do not cause a problem, but I’m glad that I went through it.

Please listen to your body. More is not better. If you feel physically and mentally drained then take an extra day off. ITS OK!!

Should have retested with the same movements so you had a comparison!

How’s your body feeling after the qualifier?

Consider cutting back the conditioning volume the day after a qualifier. Particularly if you plan on repeating it. Train smart and optimise performance!

Awesome news about your gum reopening!!! ? ??
