Quote of the day: “CrossFit. Because life isn’t 3 sets of 10.” ~ South Tahoe CrossFit
Adriana Overhead Squatting
Today’s WOD was a recent workout from CrossFit.com that resembled a heavy version of the benchmark girl “Cindy“.
Stop the Slop Challenge: Chest-to-Bar standard today was chest contacts bar around the mid-chest or nipple level. Reps that touch the collar bone do not count. Any reps that contacts mid-chest to below nipple is C2B-tastic!
Coaching Tip: Ovehead Squat Position
When performing the Overhead Squat focus on pushing up on the barbell directly overhead and slightly behind the ears while rotating the armpits and lats “forward” (shown by Lindsay below). Turning the armpits forward and pressing up will prevent the shoulder from a potentially dangerous impingement position. This is often visible when the armpits are facing “down” to the floor.
