Week 4: Question of the Week

What is your CrossFit kryptonite?
What is the one movement that prevents you from Rx-ing every time?
What are you doing to get better at it?
 
 
Guess I need to re-name this title "QuestionS of the Week."  :)
 
For me, it's ring dips... 
and air squats. 
 
Yes, I can do air squats, but I was born with the shortest achilles tendons known to man which prevent me from having great form.  Because I struggle with such a foundational movement, I have a hard time with heavy weight when it comes to squats, which is a whole lotta movements in CrossFit.
 
So, that's my goal this year...work, work, work to get a better air squat which hopefully will help improve all that other stuff.
