CrossFit Workout - Wednesday 8/7/13

Zercher squat, find your 3 rep max

This is my all time favorite squat, especially for heavy singles.  Start light and work your way up to your 3 rep max.  Use a squat rack and partner up on a bar if it is practical.

Here's a quick review on the Zercher squat . We'll teach you the proper form.  My bet is that you will like this movement much more than front squats, and you should be able to lift more weight than your front squat 3RM, unless your core strength sucks.  You can't fake this one!

Warmup:  Row or run 500 meters, 10 sandbag squats & 10 lunges R&L (Zercher hold), 4 rounds
Cool down:  Trainer's choice
