Post Back Squat Loads and Metcon Reps to Comments
All %’s for the strength segment of the workout should be based on your 1RM for the lift and are meant to serve as a guide in your training.  You should generally not be failing on any set except maybe your last one of the day.  If you’re unsure about your technique or ability to perform a given set safely at the posted %, then use common sense and good judgement.  When in doubt, live to lift again another day.  All squats should be done below parallel.    

The Metcon is 4 minutes of all out effort.  There is no rest between movements.  

*SCHEDULE UPDATE*
Beginning this week, we will offer a 7:15am WOD each morning, Monday through Friday!
