What about abs??


"People ask me, 'what do I do for abs?' I tell them, stabilize the mid-line like a motherf*@!er, that's what you do!" - Coach Glassman

Abs work to stabilize and support the body with all movements: squats, deadlifts, snatches, burpees, pushups, pullups (especially the kipping variety), etc. These movement patterns place greater emphasis on the abs working in concert with the rest of the body, and will result in greater abdominal stability than the isolation of crunches.

Today's WOD:

Overhead Squat - 3RM ~ 15min.
Rest 2-5min.
AMRAP 7 min:
Thrusters 95/65

Post 3RM OHS and reps for Thrusters.
