WOD:

In 3 Min, complete:

400M Run

-rest 1 min between rounds-

-Repeat for 4 Rounds-

Your goal should be to have 1:00 to :40 of time to get some Ski Erg Cals in.  That means hit the run with a good pace, but not a sprint.  Getting there as fast as you can does you little good if you are too winded to go right into the Ski Erg.  Keep a deliberate pace that will allow you to go from one movement to the next with no rest.

So, let’s address the elephant in the room. Yes, today’s WOD calls for Chest2Bar Pull Ups.  No need to stress.  If you are efficient at pull ups, the only change should be just a slight extra pull back of your elbows at the top of a kipping pull up.  If you don’t have Chest2Bar, scale properly to help improve your performance towards getting them. Scaling is not a bad word.  It means you are putting in the work to improve.

Scaling Options:

Chest2Bar -> Chin-above Pull Ups -> Banded Strict Pull Ups -> Buddha Pull Ups -> Ring Rows (ELITE: Bar Muscle Ups)

MB weight -> 14/10 -> as needed
