Today’s WOD was an EMOM nightmare. Well, not really. But it was painful non the less. I really did not realize just how bad EMOM’s hurt with two different exercises. And of course, I used the two hardest (on the body) exercises for me I could think of and I am regretting it already…
Honesty Moment: I actually programmed the workout with 3 thrusters and 6 burpees… Yep, I completed the first round and said, “hell to the no” on that! That shit fucking hurt! Another honest moment… I definitely plan on adding more EMOM couplets in the near future!

419 pages that breaks down each move and adds all the supplemental exercises too. There is even a section that covers nutrition. I really like the content of the book. It covers Olympic Lifts and that’s it! Everything that will improve your snatch and your clean & jerk. You really need to pick up this book…
