Double unders and GH sit-ups

Where did the morning crew go?

Sub for double unders.  There isn't one. There is nothing that will duplicate the effort, so practice your double unders; todays workout is a good one to start with.

Tommy V

115# thruster, 21 reps
15ft rope climb, 12 ascents
115# thruster, 15 reps
15ft rope clime, 9 ascents
115# thruster, 9 reps
15ft rope clime 6 ascents

The effort is for time. Focus on the quality of the movement in the thruster, depth and lockout.  Do not sell it short.  If the weight is to much for full range of motion, scale it back.

Scale for rope ascent is 4 pull ups per ascent, (ie. 12 ascents = 48 pull-ups)
