Workout of the Day - July 17th

🏋️ Today we're going to kick things off with the powerful Push Jerk exercise. Our main focus is achieving full extension through the hips, knees, and arms. Check out the demo where we showcase three impressive reps, highlighting the key positions to watch. In the drilling phase, grab an empty barbell and work through three sets of five reps, gradually building your confidence and technique.

💪 Now, let's shift gears to an epic skill: Ring Dips. The goal here is to keep the rings close to your body and achieve a full range of motion. With four sets of drills, we'll start with top-of-the-ring holds and bottom-of-the-ring holds, building stability and strength. Then, we'll move on to ring dip negatives, followed by proper ring dips. Take your time and focus on maintaining good form throughout.

⚙️ Here's a heads up for adjustments: Beginners athletes will start with lighter weights and focus on mechanics and technique. For conditioning, we'll suggest using lighter weights to keep each set unbroken. We'll keep the music and and the encouragement going to keep your energy flowing.

🔀 If needed, we've got movement adjustments for you too. From modified runs to alternative shoulder-to-overhead options, we've got you covered. Ring dips can be modified with bands or substituted with box dips or hand-release push-ups. For those unable to do push-ups, we've got options like floor presses.

🌟 Get ready to unleash your fitness potential and embark on this incredible journey with us. Whether you're a seasoned fitness enthusiast or a beginner, we've got the right modifications and guidance to ensure you have a blast while challenging yourself to new heights! Let's crush today's workout together! 🌟
