Technique of the week: Power Half Nelson

Sorry for the lack of technique updates for the last few weeks! The week we are working on attacking the turtle position from the front using the power half. The power half is an easy way to break your opponent down and take side control or set up an arm lock or choke. I first learned this technique from Jeff Baldwin when I was training for the World Team Trials a few years ago. Hopefully some of you guys will be able to put the technique in play while training!

CrossFit WOD:

Front squat 3-3-3-3-3 reps
