Spend 10 minutes working on overhead squats and related mobility.

For time do:

  • 30 x Hanging Power Snatch @ 30kg

Then not for time perform 3 rounds of:

  • 8 x Bench Press @ 73kg

Then EMOM for 8 minutes do 10/50 L-Sit.

Results:  Kind of a random day.  Started with the plan to do Overhead Squats and Snatches but my OHS are so bad I gave up on that.  Snatches in 2:32.  Could only do 7 Bench Press in the last round though.
