Talk about a shoulder BLASTER!!!

For the mountain climbers what we are looking for is for you to start in the top of a push up position.  You will have a rigid body position with no raised or saggy hips.  From here you will bring one knee ALL of the way up to the chest/armpit.  That counts as 1 rep. Then you will bring the other up as that knee goes back.  2 reps.

Complete 40 total reps alternating legs (so 20 each side).

Burpees are burpees.  Get the chest and thighs to the ground at the bottom.  Jump or step your feet in.  Jump and clap.

The double dumbbell hang snatch is just that.  Instead of having the dumbbell in just one hand - you will have a dumbbell in each hand.  Since you are used to only doing one at a time, for many of you - this might feel awkward and heavy.  That's ok.

You will deadlift the dumbbells up and have a somewhat wide/squat stance.  Arms are inside of the legs.  You will hinge at the hips and bend the knees slightly thinking about keeping the arms straight and chest up!  Also - keep those heels down!

You will stand up hard and fast - shrug and then with a slight bend in the elbow + a press out bring BOTH dumbbells to a locked out position overhead.

This is EXACTLY the top half of a devil press if that helps.  It is NOT a clean and jerk and we shouldn't see a pause at the shoulder on the way up.

SHOW CONTROL on the way down.  Do not allow the dumbbells to pull you forward, round your back, or make you shift into your toes!

If you do not have the dumbbells for this OR if the pair that you have feels too heavy - you may sub a kettlebell swing!
