Above:  Single Arm weighted Overhead Squats recruit a lot of your smaller muscles for stabilization.  Many of our athletes were surprised at the demand on the core required during an unbalanced movement.  Single-Arm movements also pull out a "weaker" side of the body, or the non-dominant side.

Today's WOD:
For time:
10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 rep rounds, of:
1-Arm Overhead Squat, Right (53/35 lbs. KB)
1-Arm Overhead Squat, Left (53/35 lbs. KB)
10 Box Jumps (24") after each set of Overhead Squats
