Logistics
- In today’s workout it’s important to set up your room so that athletes can safely transition from station to station. It adds value to your class experience to have the room set up prior to your athletes showing up. If you’re short on ropes or bikes you can start athletes at different stations.

Power snatch

- 5 reps hang (above knee)
- 3 reps mid shin
Rope Climb
- 9 minutes rope climb clinic
- Start on the ground with the rope between your feet. Practice the foot lock technique by wrapping one leg around the rope and stepping on it with the other foot. Slide the wrapped foot upward to simulate the climbing motion without using your hands.
- Introduce the J-hook technique, where one foot creates a J-shaped hook around the rope while the other foot presses against the inside of the J. Practice the motion from a seated position on the ground before progressing to standing.
- Sit on the ground with legs extended and practice pulling yourself up the rope using only your arms. Focus on using your feet to secure the rope in the J-hook position as you pull.
- Start with partial climbs, where you climb a short distance using proper footwork and then descend. Assisted Rope Climbs:
- Use a spotter or a box to assist in the initial ascent. Concentrate on applying proper footwork while gradually relying less on assistance.

Mindset
"You've got to get up every morning with determination if you're going to go to bed with satisfaction." - George Lorimer
“Win the morning, win the day” is something we’ve all heard once or twice before.
It’s less about winning the morning, and more about establishing the right habits. The most successful in life routinely draw back to a core staple of set daily habits.
Write a short list of healthy habits you believe push you forward. It could be reading, journaling, “no phone hours”, or anything in between. Where consistency is king, discipline is freedom.
