Practice What You Hate

After months and months of crossfitting, I am finally able to associate a weight lifting movement with it's name.  And now since I know the names of each movement, I was able to name my two least favorites.  Snatch and Overhead Squats. 

I think I hate squatting in general but the Overhead Squats are the WORST! 

So you could just imagine my delight when I saw today's WOD:

5 Power Snatches
5 Overhead Squats
10 Burpee Pull Ups

Groaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan! (Mind you this is the 6am class)

I check the WODs the night before so I know what I am in for and I could have easily said, nope, not going.  But I also know that if you never practice the things you suck at and always practice the things you are good at....you will never get better!
