8.28.15 WOD NOTES

Max Effort Upper

Mobility: 8min

4min on each side. 0:00 – 1:40 http://www.mobilitywod.com/daily/wednesday-july-8th-2015/

Dynamic Warm Up: 5min

Strength: 12min

Front Rack Hold (3 x Max Time @ Body Weight)
**Score total seconds of longest hold
NOTES:
Why?
This is the position where the Clean becomes the Jerk. The rack hold is a great way to teach Athletes how to get comfortable with discomfort in the front rack position. By maintaining full-body tension for an elongated period of time we are primarily focusing on ‘strength endurance’ throughout the entire body.
How?
Take from rack. Athletes score max time in front rack position. Hands must be on barbell in front rack position (clean position). Coach Athletes to ‘BREATH’ and engage midline. Upper and lower back will be the first to fatigue. Watch for loss of midline and poor front rack positions.

WOD: 20min
