Athlete Notes:
Back to our regularly scheduled Wednesday EMOM’s. Today’s workout should be totally doable given the degree of difficulty in comparison to the other ones we’ve hit, but you’re going to have to be diligent about starting. Don’t waste time transitioning, hit the bike hard, get right on the pull-up bar, and then grab that barbell and try to do the shoulder to overhead into the squats unbroken if you can. When you get to the four rounds for time, it’s time to kick it into high gear and let’s see what you have left in the tank. You read that right. Four rounds instead of three this week.
