• Coaching Brief & Class Overview
Today’s class blends a moderate front squat strength effort with a fast-paced dumbbell triplet that challenges full-body coordination and breathing control. The goal for the squats is to maintain posture and control under moderate loading while preparing athletes for the dynamic overhead work ahead. “Body Movin’” is meant to feel like a grindy sprint — short rounds, fast transitions, and smooth dumbbell cycling. Cue athletes to stay relaxed under fatigue, focus on breathing rhythm, and manage grip for sustained output. Encourage unbroken dumbbell sets when possible and precise toes-to-bar mechanics. Class should feel energetic, sweaty, and controlled — a balance of intensity and execution.
