Triple Threat
It's thruster time! Photo: Oscar Bravo
Team,
Pretty big Monday Tuesday coming at you this week... essentially three wods in one, covering a spectrum of movements and capacities. Your goal is to maximize your performance in all three, with the understanding that each one will affect the next!
You shouldn't need too much warm up between the first and second and then the second and third, but make sure to prime the movements and get your techniques dialed in. For the middle wod, you'll want to ensure that your burpee box jumps are smooth and efficient as we don't take them on that often.
For the heavy thruster, you may or may not reach a true 1rm, so just focus on making sensible jumps in weight and getting your posture and timing down to get your best lift. You can take the bar from the floor or from the rack, although most of you will get the best benefit from the latter.
Good luck, have fun, and work hard!

MONDAY TUESDAY
WARM UP: 3 rounds with an empty bar:
5 deadlifts, 5 front squats, 5 shoulder to overheads, 5 back squats. Rest and stretch out front rack in between each round with the following stretch:
PART 1: THRUSTER HEAVY SINGLE / 1RM
14 minutes to build up to a heavy single in the thruster. Take as many attempts as you like, but start with some sets of higher reps to get warmed up (i.e. 1 set of 5 then sets of 3).

5 Pull-ups 5 Toes-to-bars 5 Burpee Box Jumps, 24/20 in ...
