WOD:

20 Min AMRAP:

5 Tire Flips

10 Tire Jump Throughs

20 KB Swing 53/35

Nothing ends a week better than some good ol’ strongman work!  Luckily, we have a good assortment of tires to choose from.  For the tire jump throughs, they are performed one of two ways.  1)The athlete jumps right into the middle of the tire and jumps right out or 2)Athlete jumps on top of tire edge, hops in the middle, hops on top of the far side edge of the tire, and hops off.  Remember, the jumps mean both feet leave the ground at the same time and land at the same time.  If there is any stepping up, that is considered scaled. You CAN step down and still be RX.
