Workout:
Every :75 for 12 sets
1-4: 3 Power snatch
5-8: 2 Hang squat snatch
9-12: 1 Squat snatch
Increase every 2 sets
Metcon:
9-7-5
Muscle up
Squat Snatch 135/95
This may seem difficult or even impossible to do for some.
If this is the case, don’t fret. We can figure out a modification.
If muscle ups are the issue you can substitute chest to bar pull ups or regular pull ups.
If the squat snatch is the issue do to poor mobility that you choose to ignore, you can do power snatch in place of.
If you are going to substitute you need to make it comparable to the wod. Maybe something like:
A. 15-12-9
Chest to bar pull up
Power snatch 135/95
B. 15-12-9
Pull up
Power snatch 155/105
C. 9-7-5
Muscle up
Power snatch 155/105
D. 15-12-9
Pull up
Squat snatch 135/95
Get the jist of where i’m going with this?
The workout is supposed to be quick with high intensity.
Whatever you choose to modify make sure its heavy and fast.

After many requests we’ll be doing the 20 rep squats again.
They not only get you strong as fuck, they also get you in great condition.
So, every Monday for 8 weeks we’ll be doing the 20 rep routine. If you happen to miss a Monday be sure to make up the squats either the next day or Wednesday so you get enough rest.
The 20 reps should be a grueling 20 reps, not just a leisurely 20 reps, so make sure you’re doing what you can each week.
This is important, make sure you are doing full range of motion for all 20 reps, half reps are silly.
Workout:
20 reps Back Squat @50-55%
This is 20 consecutive reps. You can rest but you cannot return the bar to the rack till all 20 reps are completed.
Be sure to treat each rep as if it’s a 1 rep max.
Metcon:
6 sets with 1 min rest between sets
15/12 Cal. Assault
5 Burpee Box jump overs 34/24″

Workout:
Heavy DB Lunges
5 x 10 (5 each leg)
You can do walking lunges or lunges in places. Just make sure you have two heavy ass db’s.
5 rounds for max reps of:
¾-body-weight bench presses
Pull-ups
If you cannot get at least 10 reps with 3/4 body-weight, choose a weight you can get 10 reps for the first couple rounds. Same with the pull ups, modify to get 10 reps.
Give yourself ample recovery time between sets.
Have you given any thought as to why you work out?
Maybe you want to keep your bones strong so as you age you don’t fall, break your hip and die.
I hear this is a big issue with older people, like Bruce. Fortunately for Bruce his bones are strong from lifting, he may fall but, no broken hips here.
Of course one of his hips has already been replaced but the other is primo.
I would imagine if someone has the notion that through working out they will look how they want to and it doesn’t happen it would be pretty discouraging.
I wonder if this concept stops people from continuing their training. I mean if you believe something to be true and it’s not working I guess it would be easy to quit.
This is another reason you need to separate the two.
Focus on your goal of why you train while also focusing on eating well to drop fat.

How many of you workout so you don’t feel as guilty when you eat crap. Do you workout to lose weight.
This is not how it works.
Losing weight happens from what you put in your mouth.
If you are one of these people that works out to lose weight, you should rethink why you train.
Maybe figuring out a different goal of why you workout like, strength gain, increase in power, better stamina, or whatever the reason it can’t be to lose weight.
Separating the two may help you eat better.
Knowing that the only way to lose fat is eating well, as opposed to working out to lose fat will help you focus on eating well.
