#MAINLINEMONDAY; CFML’S HIGH POWERED OPEN GYM WORKOUT OF THE WEEK:

6 Sets

32 Double Unders

8 Shoulder to Overhead (155/105)(115/75)
32 Double Unders

*Rest 1:00 between sets*

Scaling Options:
•Use a barbell weight that you can complete the 8 S2OH in 1 hard set. If doing single unders, use 50 single unders! 

Advice From Our Coaches:
Both the S2OH and the jump rope will tax the shoulders and core today.  Focus on making your jumps efficient rather than just speeding through the rope.  Taking a quick pause with the barbell overhead will help you to brace for the next rep.
