Ideally, you would scale this so that you could complete the 20 rounds, but more importanly maintaining the intensity for 20 minutes was the key. I don't think this was a problem for anyone who did this workout.<BR/><BR/>I did notice some things this morning that I want to point out. Some of the front squats I saw this morning were awful. Look, please do not be so prideful that you do something incorrectly in an effort to do more weight. As you can see from my numbers, I had to scale so I could maintain proper form. I could have kept it at 165 and widened my stance, or not gone all the way down, but trust me in the long run that will lead to injury and is not safe.<BR/><BR/>Here are the major points of performance on a squat. You should be saying these in your head everytime you do this movement. <BR/>1. Feet shoulder width apart turned slightly out at an angle so that you knees can track over them.<BR/>2. Weight on your heals. Wiggle your toes if you need to but keep your weight back on those heels.<BR/>3. Butt back, chest up and pull yourself down where you hips are below your knees. This will help you maintain that natural arch in your back.<BR/><BR/>Again, if you see someone doing this incorrectly, let them know. This program only makes sense if it is done safely.Black and Gold CrossFithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11331741773001841459noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2265098625928186530.post-24495333971069697882009-02-17T07:59:00.000-05:002009-02-17T07:59:00.000-05:0020 rounds @ 175 lbs.Great workout.20 rounds @ 175 lbs.<BR/><BR/>Great workout.CMCDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06686414122341606900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2265098625928186530.post-17943247396559084032009-02-17T07:46:00.000-05:002009-02-17T07:46:00.000-05:00rnds 1-2 145lbsrnds 3-5 135lbsrnds 6-8 115lbsrn...rnds 1-2 145lbs<BR/>rnds 3-5 135lbs<BR/>rnds 6-8 115lbs<BR/>rnds 9-20 95lbs<BR/><BR/>legs are smoked. amazing how this WOD got the heart rate going.SBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15158187408485631256noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2265098625928186530.post-15436602014929727902009-02-17T07:40:00.000-05:002009-02-17T07:40:00.000-05:0017 rounds in 20 minutes at 135lbs.
