Climbing by 5% per round to 95% today would be an ideal path for most of the crew. Scaling and additional guidance will be covered during pre training whiteboard briefs. Today we will be working to establish the relationship between Pull, Hit and Catch movement/ positions as well as footwork facilitating the Receiving Position. Additional Drills for hip hinge value and pulling under the bar after completing the second pull will also be addressed building on established progress from previous training.
