Back Squats and HSPU

OKAYBRO Dave ready for them skwaaaaaats!

This Saturday at 12pm is our BRING-A-FRIEND CrossFit Class. Bring in any non-perishable foods, new or gently-used clothing and the workout is on us! We’re donating everything to The Downtown Emergency Service Center (DESC) just down 12th Ave from the gym.

The DESC provides integrated services including housing, emergency shelter, crisis intervention and healthcare to the homeless and formerly homeless people of Seattle every day. People who are living with mental illness, substance use disorders, and other disabilities. DESC believes that everyone deserves the space to exist and a place to call home- they meet people wherever they are and accepts them as they are.​

Come workout and support a great organization!

for time:
70 handstand pushups, a penalty of 7 burpees every break

Post-workout: accumulate :90 in the German hang. Preferably you would start on low rings in a sink stretch before walking backwards to tuck. The lower the hips are in relation to than hands, the better! Alternatively you can try a handful of Skin-the-Cats, but ensure you spend some time in the German hang.

THE OKAYBRO, Dave T

Today’s complex begins with the full squat- do you get extension? Is your timing right with your change of direction? Are you stable enough to handle the movement? Then you’ll do a triple jerk dip squat, or the isolated dip portion of movements like the push press. Are you upright? Do you do better with a shallow or deeper dip? Then we’ll immediately test the dip again with an actual jerk. Just to tire your legs out again we’ll back squat. Finally you’ll do another jerk from behind the neck.
