WOD THOUGHTS: Score: Fastest completed round

Primary Objective: Either complete the bike under 1:30 minutes or unbroken on the opening sets of toes to bar. And for as many rounds as possible unbroken on the last set of toes to bar. If you need more machine work, you know which one to focus on and same for the toes to bar, if you need more work on that movement, hit that as your primary.

Secondary Objective: Complete each set under 5:00 minutes

Weekly Programming Focus: We are now in the second week of the Open. Because of the timeline on when we are sending out this document we may make some adjustments to next weeks program after the Open announcement to make sure the weeks are flowing well together, but we will assume for the most part that the Open workout shouldn’t derail the planned programming all too much. This week we are tapping into some heavy snatches on Monday before hitting a challenging chipper style 3 round workout before heading into a more upper body strength workout on Wednesday. The idea with the flow here is to have some more intensity placed on Monday and Tuesday, reduce the intensity on Wednesday, then move into a skill focused day with a little bit of aerobic work on Thursday in order to roll into Friday feeling fresh and ready for the Open workout. Our alternate Friday workout has our Front Squat progression placed in here, so for any athletes that really want to keep the squat focus in their programming should do the Front Squat progression after the Open workout on Friday. We will then have a fun 3 person team workout that will challenge communication and some synchro style movements. For those that feel placing that in their will be too much of a challenge for the majority of their gym. We will just up the reps a bit and have them work to accomplish the work by splitting it into 2s or 3s. This is an easy workout to make a partner workout if you do not want to have it include synchro style movements.
