Mainsite Monday: "Betty"

Monday’s program features an annual re-test of the classic CrossFit.com mainsite benchmark WOD “Betty.”  Focus on keeping these reps as truly push PRESSES and not push jerks by driving the barbell off the body with the legs and then finishing overhead by pressing, and NOT re-bending at the knees or hips (squeeze your glutes and quads until the bar has reached full lockout overhead).  

Enjoy and Happy Monday!
