Scaling: This couplet is intended to challenge your self-awareness and pacing. Choose a moderately light overhead squat weight that enables you to complete each set unbroken. Row as fast as you can but not so fast that you need to break up the squat sets or rest before picking up the barbell.
Scaling: Expect to go around and around the merry-go-round in today’s workout. The rep volume is low, and so is the loading. This should allow you to push the pace for the entire duration of the workout. Advanced athletes should try to maintain unbroken reps for as many sets as possible. Less-experienced athletes should scale the movements to perform a single round in 2 minutes or less. That said, we could see advanced athletes maintaining a single round every minute.
Like last week, just for shits and giggles, we're going to do this in two, possibly 3 rounds. Box Jumps: Every rep must begin with both feet on the floor. The rep finishes with the hips and knees fully open while in control on top of the box. You may jump or step up or down as long as both feet start on the ground and both feet end on the box in control. Scale to 20/16" Box. Scale toes to Bar to V-ups (hand to feet) or hanging knee raises. Like an "Open WOD", we're going to cheer and call no-reps!
We will do the Open Workout in at least two heats, possibly 3 if necessary!
