The gym will open at 9:00. We will do a group warm up at 9:15 and cover movement standards and scaling. Heats will begin at 9:30. The warm up will be posted on the board for those of you who do not come early for the group warm upYou can sign up for a heat on the website under the schedule or on the Zen Planner app for Saturday.

Strategy and tips: This workout is all about the grip and all about the toes to bar. Break them up early and often. Possibly sets of 5 from the very beginning. The deadlifts are a light enough load that they almost become recovery. Take a moment to reset between the deadlift and the snatches. Break the snatches up into sets into sets of 2-2-1 or even into singles. This will save your grip.
