WOD - Thursday 2021-04-15

OVERVIEW

Squat day!!! Today we’ll test our strength on the King/Queen of lifts - Back Squat. While below parallel is always the goal, we should try to force it. Let’s focus on avoiding excessive “butt wink” and forward leaning postures. Keep tight, maintain that tripod foot, hit your depth, and stand strong.

Oh, and we’ll burn the lungs and legs after with some goblet squats and burpees.
