Today’s WOD gives a nice mix of gymnastic work, along with a little cardio and some good weight moving in there as well.  We want to stay with the CrossFit Open standards when it comes to the wall walks. With steady movement and fast transitions, this one is very doable in 12 min.

Scaling Options:

Wall Walks -> to highest point you can get to -> 8 Alt Shoulder taps per 1 wall walk (ELITE: 90’ Handstand Walk)

KB weight -> 35/25 -> as needed (ELITE: 70/55)

Cool Down:
