Eight rounds for time of:
185 pound Front squat, 5 reps
26 Ring push-ups
Good article below. I pulled out some of the high lights.
Olympian's perspective
Technique and leg strength will be necessary for optimal efficiency through workouts with barbells set at low weight for high reps. Using more core, hips and legs during low weight/high rep barbell workouts – and less extremity and arms – will increase a Games athlete’s success over the three-day competition, as their extremities and arms are in high demand, given the large number of pull-ups, push-ups, muscle-ups, etc., in Games workouts.
athletes must learn proper positioning and movement of the bar and their body. Ideally, to lesson the use of extremities, the bar will stay close to their body throughout the lift and contact their body upon completion of extension.
Secondly, powerful, controlled hip extension is – as we CrossFitters know – the base of all athletic ability and crucial to succe
If you weren’t blessed with a lot of natural leg strength – as many of the competitors this year were – you better regularly add extra squatting to your programming
