WOD

Overhead Squat
5×3, across

“Isabel”
30 Snatches (135/95)


WOD Guidance & Goals:

For the overhead squat, coaches will help you work up to 80% of your 1 rep max which you’ll do for all 5 sets of 3 reps. For Isabel, choose a weight for the snatches that you can do for 5 reps unbroken. The key to this workout is to minimize rest by not going to failure. Start with a bigger set (5-10 reps) then chip away at smaller sets and eventually singles. Target 5 minutes.
