Join Mikko Salo, the 2009 CrossFit Games champion, on his road trip across America—but this trip isn’t quite the same as the CrossFit Journal’slast Road Trip with Dave Lipson, Rob Orlando and Dave Castro. A man of few words, Salo is rarely distracted from his quest to better his training.

With another day at CrossFit Columbus, home of 2010 Games champion Graham Holmberg, Salo and Holmberg have another chance for a workout together. Today, it’s going to be snatches and a long Hero WOD.

In Part 4, the athletes share differing strategies for their Olympic lifting, including their warm-ups.

“See, these guys are going from the ground right now. I like to go make sure my shoulders are all warmed up, my squat’s feeling real good, and then I’ll start pulling from the ground,” Holmberg says.

The two champions then try to set new records for a one-rep-max snatch.
