“I was complaining I had no shoes, until I met a man who had no feet.” – Confucius

A short story to share.

A man walked into a shop to order some flowers to be sent as a gift to his mother, living 200 miles away.

As he got out of his car he noticed a young girl sitting on the curb sobbing. He asked her what was wrong and she replied, “I wanted to buy a red rose for my mother. But I only have seventy-five cents, and a rose costs two dollars.” The man smiled and said, “Come on in with me. I’ll buy you a rose.” He bought the little girl her rose and ordered his own mother’s flowers.

As they were leaving he offered the girl a ride home. She said, “Yes, please! You can take me to my mother!” She directed him to a cemetery, where she placed the rose on a freshly dug grave.

The man returned to the flower shop, canceled the gifting order, picked up a bouquet and drove the two hundred miles to his mother’s house.

At times, we can take many such relationships with our family and friends for granted.

Squat Snatch (Squat Snatch


On the 1:30 x 10 Sets:
3-3-3-2-2-2-1-1-1-1

*Start Around 65% & Build
)

– Aim to build in weight over the 10 sets. We’ll build toward a heavy weight here by the last set but we are not necessarily looking to hit a PR.

– Repeating the same weight for multiple sets is totally okay.

– Score: Enter weight used for last set of 1.

Warm Up

With An Empty Barbell…

5 Snatch Grip Deadlifts

5 Snatch High Pulls

5 Muscle Snatches

5 Overhead Squats

5 Hang Power Snatches

5 Hang Squat Snatches

Load up to 65% hitting 1 squat snatch each time you need to make a jump in weight.

Hang Gliding (AMRAP – Rounds and Reps)

“Hang Gliding”

AMRAP 20:
4 Dumbbell Hang Power Snatches (Each Arm)
6 Toes to Bar
24 Double Unders

Dumbbell: MRx: 30/15, Rx: 40/25, Rx+: 50/35

– Conditioning Category: Threshold. Athletes should aim to move at their maximal sustainable pace throughout.

– Toes To Bar: Reps should be completed in 45 seconds or less.

– Double Unders: Reps should be completed in 45 seconds or less.

– Score: Total Rounds + Reps.
– In the Open, we typically see some form of a cyclical workout. Here we have a low number of reps each round and we are looking at finishing 10+ rounds. Pacing appropriately will be key.

– Aim for unbroken hang snatches. Your cycle speed can be adjusted as needed based on how you are feeling.

– Aim for 1-2 sets of toes to bar. Choose a break up strategy that you can maintain throughout the entire 20 minute workout.

– See if you can go unbroken on the double unders.

– With lots of transitions, let’s be intentional about moving from movement to movement.

“Life isn’t about waiting for the storm to pass… It’s about learning to dance in the rain.” – Vivian Greene

Let’s not wait for the perfect time.

Let’s instead just create it.

“Just start”. We’ve used this approach in our strategy pieces. As we transition from the double-under rope to the wallballs, let’s just start. If we can remove that moment of hesitation, we quickly find those first repetitions are always there… and more. We surprise ourselves with a set of 15 reps, when we could have bet our lives that we might fail the first.

We can either await the picture perfect moment, or we can get outside and create it.

– Workout Flow: Athletes will complete 5 AMRAP 3’s resting 1:00 between each AMRAP. Athletes will always pick up where they left off in the previous round. For example, if you finish in the middle of HSPU, you’ll pick back up on the HSPU after the 1:00 rest.

– Wallballs: Reps should take less than 1:00 each round.

– Score: Total rounds + reps completed over the course of the entire workout.
– Singles and touch and go sets are both solid strategies for this workout. Let’s choose our strategy based off of what will allow for big or unbroken sets of HSPU and wallballs.

– Aim to complete the handstand push-ups in 1-2 sets. Keep your break short if you know you’ll need one.

– Aim for unbroken wallballs each round.

“Only a man who knows what it’s like to be defeated, can reach down to the bottom of his soul with the extra ounce of power to win, when the match is even.” – Mohammed Ali

It’s commonplace to look at mistakes, miscues, and losses as negatives. And it’s even more common to view them as setbacks. Yet here, one of the greatest of time, offers the difference maker in an otherwise even fight between two opponents:

Failure.

Through the experience of failure, the fighter becomes the victor. Not because of the pain of loss, or the embarrassment of defeat. But through viewing failure as a chance to start again, more equipped. More prepared. More experienced.

“Don’t judge each day by the harvest you reap, but rather by the seeds you plant.” – Robert Lewis Stevensen

The definition of success is whatever we make of it.

Many directly link results to success. And the lack thereof, to failure. But what if we reshaped that way of thinking. What if we measured success, as the seeds we “plant for tomorrow”? What if we decide that a successful day is deemed so purely by how much we learned?

We can view days as tests.

Or we can view days as opportunities.

Time to tend to the field.

“Every action you take is a vote for the type of person you wish to become. No single instance will transform your beliefs, but as the votes build up, so does the evidence of your new identity.” – James Clear

If someone has 10 coins, are they rich? Let’s say no.

What if they have 100 coins? Probably not.

What about 1,000 coins?

There is a tipping point. A number where our answer changes to yes. It actually narrows down to a single coin where that takes place.

But… we know it wasn’t *just* the single coin. It was the culmination of the many before. We can apply this same logic to our identity. By itself, walking the shopping cart back to its home isn’t going to change who we are as an individual. By itself, picking up trash outside of the local school isn’t going to either. It’s the culmination, that will. These votes for who we are, seemingly small at the time, add up.

A pitfall in life is when we view instances throughout our day as insignificant. We tell ourselves, “this won’t make a difference”. Yet at the end of the day, just like the single coin, it’s all that matters.

Toes-To-Bar (Toes to Bar
