Grip Blaster

CrossFit Carolina Beach – CrossFit

– Strength: Today we are building to a 1RM in the Split Jerk. If you have a current number your goal is to beat that by 5#s so make sure you have a tight plan in place.
– Metcon: Today’s ”metcon” is more of grip tester. This is done with an empty barbell on purpose as your forearms will be the limiting factor. Even still, challenge yourself to go for big sets while keeping your form on point. You may be surprised how tough this one is.
