Uphill Power: WOD: STRENGTH: 10/11/17

Today we are developing power. Power is driving force that is going to propel you uphill.  Today we will incorporate super-sets into our main set. You perform super-sets by doing two or more exercises back to back before repeating them.

Perform each movement with purpose and maximum effort. Jump high and crawl low. (Click each exercise to view a video that shows proper technique. Always perform each movement in a controlled and strict manner.)
