We are starting off this week with a shoulder blaster. Â Last week may have felt a little leg intensive. Â That was to be expected. Â Today’s WOD will test the endurance of your shoulders. Â A rather small muscle group, the shoulder is also the most mobile joint in the body. Â That also means it is the most unstable. Â Therefore, a lot of energy is used stabilizing that joint and that explains why the shoulders burn out so quickly. Â Maintaining good movement standards through the KB Swings and TTB will help utilize other areas of the body that will conserve some of the energy.
