Overhead Squats - A Full Body Test

Warmup: Jump Rope 5 min (Do you have double unders yet?)

Strength: Hang Power Clean 5x3

WOD:        4 Rounds for Time of:

                      6 Reps of Overhead Squat @ yesterday's Snatch Balance PR

The Overhead Squat is a great test of total body fitness. It is also the true litmus test of your squat technique. If anything is incorrect in your squat technique you will fail on your overhead squats. So keep your knees out, your butt back, and your shoulders engaged and have fun!
