WOD THOUGHTS: We are looking to keep the Wall Walks fast today and have those be the focus of cycling right back into the next rep rather than grinding through them. We should move right to the burpee box jump overs with the goal of staying low and close to the box. We will then jump up and tackle a quick set of 7 on toe to bar that should be done unbroken or in a quick 2 sets.

WOD THOUGHT: The focus today is working smooth clean reps on the Deadlifts and being able to jump up right away and hit quick sets on the Chest to Bar. We are assuming the deadlifts will be unbroken or a quick 5 + 5 to save the grip. For the chest to bar we are looking for sets of 5+ linked reps on the bar with little to no rest time before jumping right back up and hitting your next set.

Weekly Programming Focus: We are one week away from The CrossFit Open. This means we are putting the final cherry on top of our fitness before leading into the Open Weeks. With this being said and depending on where each athlete is along their journey, they may find that the stimulus of the Open helped them kick things up a notch and they see their fitness improve even more going through the Open. For those that have been with us through the entire Open Base Cycle and Open Prep Cycle, we should be feeling like things are primed and ready to go, as well as they may be ready to dial things back a bit going into the Open Weeks in order to feel fully fresh and ready to tackle the Open during this phase. Again, this is something to talk to with each athlete going through the Open and find out what their specific goals are. Some just want to do the Open and have fun along the way. Some want to peak for the Open, so may want to rest and focus on recovery going into each workout. And some don’t really want to have anything to do with the Open and might choose to hit every other day of the week rather than the Open. Now going forward into the next week, we will write out most key points and specifics going into the week, however we will leave Friday open with an (optional / additional) workout for those that may do the Open on Saturday, while leaving room for that to be the scheduled programmed Workout of the Day.
