Video courtesy of The CrossFit Games. In honor of the 2022 CrossFit Games, today, we will tackle a little more manageable version of “Up & Over”. If you watch the video, you’ll notice every round the object the athletes have to get over changes. For us mere mortals (and for the sake of equipment limitations), our box jump overs will stay the same for each round. This version will still push you hard.
Scaling Options:
Burpee to Kipping Pull Up -> Burpee to Jumping Pull up* (Elite: Bar Muscle Ups)
Box Height -> 20/16 -> as needed (Elite 42/30)
Ab-mat sit ups -> feet anchored (Elite: GHD sit ups)
