Monday 2.14.10

The calm before.
Warm Up:  Coach's choice

SWOD: Wall Ball Shots x 2.  Max. number of reps chained together.  Any pause in the set or miss of the target means the set is discontinued. Partner up to keep track of reps and accuracy.

Metcon: "Mary".  Compare to 6.11.10
As many rounds in 20:00
-5 Handstand Push Up
-10 Pistols (any leg)
-15 Pull Ups

Accuracy, in the fitness world, is defined as the ability to control movement in a given direction or at a given intensity.  Accuracy is often overlooked in the fitness world, but if you have to lower your intensity in a workout to accurately complete a movement, then you have not yet attained a high level of fitness.  The easiest exercise to gauge accuracy is Wall Ball, as we will see in the SWOD today.   

However, any exercise has an accuracy aspect to it.  For every exercise we do, there is a Range of Motion (ROM) needed to be done to make the movement complete.  The Squat starts at standing up straight, bringing the hips below the tops of the knees, then back to standing up straight again with the hips fully extended.  Anything less is not an accurate movement and shortchanges your fitness potential, especially when going for a higher weight or for many reps for time.
