Overhead Squat
5-5-5-5-5
then
Death by Double Double Under
With a continuously running clock, do 2 Double Unders the first minute, 4 the second minute, 6 the third minute…

They’re all sandbagging!!!
Colm I can’t wait to see how long you can keep coming with up stereotypical old man sayings for the WOD, I appreciate them though.
Question for coach: Is it ok if I turn up at 8 this evening to work on my overhead squats? I’m working until 7 so I’d never make any of the earlier classes.

Thanks for the link Pixie. Unfortunately we can’t fit you in during The Essentials Classes. If you’re around Thurs/Fri we can get you doing overhead squats then? Or 9 tonight Bobby and Will will be repairing Bobby’s floor smashing so maybe get them done then?
I promise, I won’t throw the skipping rope on the floor this eve in a hissy fit cos I can’t get the double unders
Hopefully, I’ll be back to ‘beginners luck’ like last week when they wheren’t a bother.
Will not be down tonight, pity my overhead squats need alot of work( and before anyone else says it I know a lot of my other stuff needs work also).Have a good one
No worries Sue.
For anyone that doesn’t know, I’d an angry class last night at 8.
Amy’s shoulders were hurting, so I had to stop her going overhead when the tears started.
Bobby went inside himself, brooding, and smashed my floor. He seemed quite upset so I didn’t chew him out.
Sue got frustrated at the double unders and gritted her teeth saying “I’m just wasting my time”.
Paddy seemed to have fun, though.
Is this angry class going to be a regular one? Coz that sounds like fun!
Apologies for the floor, I’ll be up tonight to fix it.
Wow, way to kill the conversation on the site for the day Bobby!
I’m surprised no one is jumping in with a few traveller jokes. Tom is really off the ball these days.
