## BOX JUMP OVERS
### Work Your Way Up
The box jump over is a leg and hip driven movement. When we're performing this movement, let's make sure to open the hips hard before pulling the knees up. If we just pull the knees up without opening the hips all the way, we lose out on some height and power. With a low box, we'll work on jumping progressively higher. The goal is to start with normal jumps and end by eventually landing with the legs as locked out as possible.
***See the Daily Video for a Visual.***
### Movement Prep
15 Seconds Hops in Place
5 Low Box Jumps (Getting Progressively Higher)
5 Workout Height Box Jump Overs
## TOES TO BAR
### Work Your Way Up
Bring the feet progressively higher to work on rhythm. Gradually working the feet up towards the bar can help athletes maintain a good rhythm in their toes to bar. We'll start with a small kip and feet low, eventually working up to the max height where athletes are still able to keep a rhythm. ***See the Daily Video for a Visual.***
### Movement Prep
10 Scap Pull-ups [Video](https://youtu.be/ORkwXCf7fko)
5 Kip Swings
10 Toes Up (Gradually Increasing Height)
### Movement Subs
* Reduce Reps
* Feet as High as Possible
* Knees to Waist, Chest, or Elbows
## DOUBLE DUMBBELL FRONT SQUATS
### Elbows
The double dumbbell front squat is challenging variation of the barbell front squat. Just like on the barbell, driving the elbows up throughout the movement will be important. With the added difficulty of holding dumbbells, getting the back head of the dumbbell further back on the body will make it easier to keep the elbows up, as this balances out the weight over the center of the body.
### Movement Prep
*With Lighter Weights:*
5 Pausing Front Squats (3s in Bottom)
5 Front Squats
## DOUBLE DUMBBELL POWER CLEANS
### Elbows
Athletes have the tendency to bend the arms early on the dumbbells more commonly than they do on the barbell. Let's focus in on keeping the elbows locked until we jump with the legs. We'll practice with some dumbbell jump shrugs with straight arms before layering in the full power clean.
### Movement Prep
*With Lighter Weights:*
5 Deadlifts
5 Jump Shrugs (Straight Arms)
5 Power Cleans
# PRACTICE ROUND (25:00 – 35:00)

# STRATEGY + WOD (35:00 – 60:00)
## DUMBBELL MOVEMENTS
* The dumbbell movements will likely feel pretty good the first round, but let's aim to approach the round of 21's in a way that allows you to crush the round of 15's
* Decide beforehand how you want to break-up the round of 15 and let that fuel your decision on how to attack the round of 21's
* **For Example:** If you want to get the round of 15 done in 2 sets, it may be helpful to complete the round of 21 in 2-3 sets
* Especially with the odd nature of the dumbbells, break up these movements *before* you have to grind out reps in the first two rounds
* Consider the following break-up options for each round
* **Set of 21**
* **2 Sets:** 12-9
* **3 Sets:** 7-7-7 or 8-7-6
* **4 Sets:** 6-5-5-5
* **5 Sets:** 5-4-4-4-4
* **Set of 15**
* **2 Sets:** 8-7
* **3 Sets:** 5-5-5 or 6-5-4
* **4 Sets:** 4-4-3-3
* **5 Sets:** 3-3-3-3-3
* **Set of 9**
* **2 Sets:** 5-4
* **3 Sets:** 3-3-3 or 4-3-2
* **4 Sets:** 3-2-2-2
## BOX JUMP OVERS
* This movement is the only station where we aren't holding onto anything
* Move at a steady, robotic pace through each round of box jump overs
* Lets pace these out to allow for a fast final set of 9
## TOES TO BAR
* The dumbbell movements will challenge our grip and midline, which we'll need for the toes to bar
* While we *could* try to hold of for big sets, it may be best to chip away at smaller chunks
* Consider the following break-up options for each set
* **Set of 21**
* **2 Sets:** 12-9
* **3 Sets:** 7-7-7 or 8-7-6
* **4 Sets:** 6-5-5-5
* **5 Sets:** 5-4-4-4-4
* **Set of 15**
* **2 Sets:** 8-7
* **3 Sets:** 5-5-5 or 6-5-4
* **4 Sets:** 4-4-3-3
* **5 Sets:** 3-3-3-3-3
* **Set of 9**
* **2 Sets:** 5-4
* **3 Sets:** 3-3-3 or 4-3-2
* **4 Sets:** 3-2-2-2
