Video courtesy of CrossFit HQ. Final time hitting Bench press this cycle!!! Again, if you are still working from home and don’t have a Bench, feel free to substitute Floor Press in.. This week, our goal is a heavy set of 5, a heavy set of 4, a heavy set of 3, a heavy double, and finishing with a heavy single. Does this have to be an attempt at a 1RM? No, but if your body is feeling good and you want to aim for that, shoot your shot. IF not, go by how your body feels and make it a heavy single for the day.

WOD:
“CROSSFIT OPEN 14.1”
10 Min AMRAP:
30 Double Unders
15 Power Snatches (75/55)
Video courtesy of the CrossFit Games. Our journey back through the Open WODs takes us to the 2014 Open this week. This classic couplet is meant to be done at a good, fast pace. That said, don’t turn the power snatches into stiff-leg deadlifts into muscle snatches. Use the legs in this movement and keep the back flat, chest up.
Scaling Options:
Bar weight -> 65/45 -> as needed
Double unders -> 75 Single unders per round
