S/S/S:

“Rowling” for 10 rounds

Any meters above or below 100 per round = the number of penalty moves

Rnd 1-5 – burpees

Rnd 5-10 – Toe2Bars

Videos courtesy of CrossFit HQ.  Goal is to stop exactly at 10M each round.  If you go over or under that, then do one rep of the penalty movement for every meter you went over or under.  Finish your penalty reps before moving on to the next set. Since there are enough rowers, do each round as a class.  See who can get the best (lowest number of penalty reps) score in the game.

WOD:

EMOM for 20

Odd min – 1 Rope Climb

Even min – 10 Box Jumps (24/20)

Video courtesy of Rogue Fitness.  Our pulling movement for this cycle will be the Sumo Deadlift.  As stated in the video, get the hips lower than your shoulders before you begin the pull.  As you wind up the hips do do this, put some tension on the bar so when you do initiate the pull, you won’t put a snap on the biceps.

*Tabata = 8 rounds of 20 sec work, 10 sec rest.  So, do all sets of Thrusters before going to Pull Ups, and all sets of pull ups before going to dubs, then all sets of dubs before going to ab mat sit ups.

As you will read in the Scaling section, there is no scaling on Double Unders today.  For those who do not have DUs, the reason is, we want to take today to practice getting the technique down.  So, you get eight 20-second working sets to attempt to get some DUs in.  Go for it!
