OHS Event from the Games
The second event from the CrossFit Games this year is a 1RM OHS. Athletes are given three attempts. This vid starts part-way through the first heat for the women (there are three heats). Camille is in the third heat and comes out around 34:45; her first lift is at 39:50. The men's first heat starts about 55mins in. Tyson is in the first heat, and sets a high weight right off the bat, and kills it, at 58:23.
I recommend watching at least some of this vid (and the various events of the Games over the weekend); you will see new techniques/ways of doing the movements (plus: Camille!!).
Takeaways:
-note the deep breath they all take -- gives you the big chest/tight core.
-various width of arms -- in particular Lauren Fisher (at 37:21) demonstrates a particularly narrow grip.
-loosing the bar is generally caused by either shifting weight/being unsteady on the way down/up, or by knees caving in.
-special note to Shredder: NO ONE'S heels come off the ground during the squat!!

Big Weight Night!
Lots to do:
1. BS 5x5 @65%
2. Good morning 4x4 -->start with empty bar to feel out the movement
3. Bat Wings 3x5
4. Death by Burpee: 1 burpee EMOTM adding a burpee each minute.
**previous scores here.
Good vid for the good morning. He doesn't mention the faults of letting the ball roll forward onto your neck (bad!) or how you have to keep your head in a neutral position (ie: looking at the floor a couple metres a head of your feet):
Bat Wings, good for building lat strength:
