12.2

     BHT tanks coming soon. Not tanks like the massive war machine. Tanks like tank tops, the cloth torso covering with holes for your head and arms...So excited!
   I will talk about style and sizes L8er, but... I just didn't wanna have sleeves, you know. The BHT guns should be allowed to come out and play.
     Let me know who would be interested. Or wait for the "big reveal" tomorrow. I am too excited to sleep. Mostly because of the tanks, but mostly because I am so pumped to see some BHTers unleashed on the public this weekend.

Squat Strength
Back Squat                                            90 sec rest

WOD
Class WOD

Goat/Engine WOD
EMOM for 6 Minutes
Even: 8 Toes To Bar on the 30 seconds
Odd: ME HSPU
                HSPU are Games style with 2 45s and an Ab Mat
                Srict or kip, but make sure you get at least 10 a minute

Efficiency Tips
Installment #2  Toes to Bar
     This too will be added to the Efficiency Tips Page.
     The description  and instruction that Speal gives is excellent (Watch the entire video), but before you go off and try to TTB like Chan, I want you to watch the way that the girl in the second video does her TTB (Watch this video from 0:00 to 0:40)  
     I think that allowing the hips to drift back and away from the bar is a good way to begin to become efficient with this move. They do not talk about her doing that on the video, but her kip technique is in stark contrast to Matt Chan's kip. 
     I recommend that as you begin to take this movement out of your weakness bag, you try to have your TTB look like the girl in the second video. This requires that kip that sends your hips back away from the bar, but it also reduces the distance your toes have to travel.
      I also recommend that as you begin to perfect the movement to put it in your strength bag, you combine her technique with what Chan demonstrates using a much shorter kip.
In both methods you can utilize the "knees to elbows with a kick" technique.
