CCF welcomes Dana Onifer. He will be with us for the next week while on leave from his duty station in Okinawa, Japan. Dana is a member of the US Navy and stopped by on Saturday to attack “Barbara”!
This week, BE POSITIVE!
Today is the day to conquer your fear of the overhead squat. Expect achievement when working for your one rep max, regardless of the outcome and visualize achieving something you believe to be impossible.
Don’t be afraid to push the envelope with this one rep max attempt. Warm up adequately with the squat, and then with the PVC overhead squat, then with a bar. If the overhead squat is an area of weakness for you, utilize the trainers available and communicate to them that you need coaching!
Just as the squat is one of the foundational movements in CrossFit, the overhead squat is one of the foundations and skills needed for the Snatch – something we worked on last week. Today, push the envelope and find out what you are capable of!! Good Luck!
“Plant the seeds of expectation in your mind; cultivate thoughts that anticipate achievement. Believe in yourself as being capable of overcoming all obstacles and weakness.” ~ Norman Vincent Peale
