I mentioned the Fran routine in a post last week. Along with pull-ups, the workout consists of thrusters. Although I don't think my thruster is terrible, I definitely need to improve it. I find my shoulder flexibility a limiting factor, causing me to expend more energy than necessary, and power is definitely a factor at higher weights. I think my overhead squat technique is pretty decent, but maintaining good form with weight and at speed is tough. I came across this video of a dude giving some decent tips on the thruster here:
