In our fight to get better, to get faster and stronger we often forget the order of things.
We push so hard, thinking only of intensity that we don't care when we drop a heavy bar from overhead and walk away huffing and puffing.
We forget that the bar is bouncing, moving into another athletes area, banging into a wall (or worse, into a shin).
We don't listen to the calluses or nails ripping away - we just push harder.
We neglect to use our hips, to keep our knees out, to keep our backs tight.
We don't care about the depth or the ROM, we only care about getting that rep ticked off, about stopping the clock.
We only give thought to putting it all on the line each and every time, to finishing fast, to having the highest intensity or the craziest WOD story.
But there is an order. An order that must be followed if you want to be hitting WODs next year, or in ten years.
You have the option of running your body supercharged now; for the moment - or to run it right for the rest of your life.
Which will you choose?
What order will you follow?
