I love these rules for back squat misses: 1. Stay Tight. 2. Fail on Purpose. First, if you don’t stay tight, and the weight buckles you, that may end with you getting folded like a Greeting Card. Except instead of a cute message, you can part your hair with a barbell. Fail on purpose does...Read More

I call this workout 18.4B. The B is for Brian, because I made it. 18.4 was all Deadlift, which we have replaced with the Power Clean. We won’t make the barbell weight increase – instead of getting heavy, keep the weight the same, and move the bar fast. The gymnastic subs will be the same...Read More

Tuesday’s workout is my riff on 18.2 and 18.2a. There are 100 burpees, plus a lot of jumping over stuff. Take 15 minutes before the workout to build up to a heavy clean. This will likely be your opening lift. Like 18.2, go through as quickly as you can, and you will have more time...Read More
I have to admit I am kind of obsessed with the first workout of the Open. Is it because I didn’t do well on it? Well, kind of. I’m kind of fascinated with the idea that I can row efficiently and effectively for 14 calories with a little rest. But, once I throw some work...Read More
