Manmakers/Swings

Strength Training:  Your goal is to re-pattern the proper movements and find a weight where you'll resume your linear progression, working back up in strength.  Start light, focus on form.  Do 3-4 sets, adding weight to the bar each time as necessary.  If the bar speed slows and you're grinding out, it's too heavy.  Strive for a weight that is difficult but doable with perfect form.

MetCon:  Re-visiting an old couplet, slightly scaled as we get back into the groove....
