So many Power Clean PR’s today (or at least very close)! It was great to see so many improvements in pulls, speed and receiving position. Drill those positions with a PVC and bar and perfect that technique.

Squatting to full depth or below parallel? What should I strive for? What is the difference? Full depth (i.e. ass to grass) is essential range of motion in the healthy athlete. Below parallel is the standard with which we judge a rep (i.e. break parallel to count). Go for full depth. Train it, practice it, and focus on perfect mechanics and consistency of depth before adding more weight on your hips, muscles and joints.

Read on for all of the reasons to squat deep:

Congrats to Erin on reaching your 100th WOD and staying on track! Especially considering you broke your hand ice skating this winter.

From Erin: “Three months ago today I had surgery to fix my broken arm, which made me think I really might never see #100 (let’s face it, I was already on the slow boat!) so when I saw BTWB this morning I was a little discouraged at how much scaling today’s WOD was going to take. But true to form my SRCF peeps came through and I left the box encouraged and smiling and sweaty with my 100th WOD in the rear-view mirror. I couldn’t have done it with all of you…thanks!”
