There are two great options for your overhead squat grip-width:

  1. Use the same grip you use for the snatch
  2. Use a grip slightly-closer than (1.). Although it requires more mobility, it’s definitely more stable.
  3. (Bonus) Front squat if the overhead position isn’t stable. You’ll still have to keep a vertical torso to be successful for the volume of reps required today.

Similar to yesterday, our goal for the WOD is to get comfortable with a heavy clean complex (vs yesterday’s snatch complex). Then we’ll challenge your muscular stamina with the AMRAP, which is shorter than the recent 18.1. LET’S GET AFTER IT!
