The idea of persistence hunting is pretty interesting to me, and I thought Sam could have some fun making persistence hunter artwork, so it’s what I’ve decided to nickname our endurance team.

Skill/Strength:
Overhead Squat 3-3-3-3-3
WOD:
AMRAP 10:
20 Overhead Walking Lunge Steps (20kg/15kg)

You all know how I feel about my sister. It’s no secret, but having her coach/stand behind me while I was overhead squatting helped me reach full depth. Had she not been there to say “good” I would have wobbled and most likely given up.
Must get knees to go higher next time…more efficient and less forearm pain.
Hope everyone has a happy and safe 4th! See you Thursday am for Stacey’s class!
OK, clearly I’m meant for MENSA. It’s 1+21.
OHS: 65kg (PRx5)

The rope climbs gave me rope burn THROUGH MY SHOE. As always, the 6am class was a blast.
Shorts were a bad idea just like milk being a bad choice.
Additionally, while in Starbucks (working remote like a boss) sketchy dude was checking out my rope burns. Yea, that’s right. Once again, fantastic OHS form!

Thanks to Erika for helping me with the rope climbs. Soon I’ll be able to traverse that last foot of rope!
OHS: 27kg. I don’t know what happened…I went from only being able to do the 15kg bar to doing 5 reps of 27kg. I’m sure they weren’t pretty. This is my goat (well, one of them), so happy to be making some progress on it.
