Are you ready ready for the Nancy Finals?
They are this Saturday January 9th commencing at 10:00am
How much have you improved?
The place that you will see the most improvement in Nancy is the overhead squats. If you can minimize the transition time from your run to your overhead squat by snatching the weight up, you will shave off some seconds. Try to fight out as many reps as you can while you have the bar overhead, you will lose lots of time dropping the weight and having to snatch it up again. Check out 6 tips for the Overhead Squat from Weightlifting Exchange.
GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE!!!!
