FANTASTIC workout to kick off your shortened week here in Melbourne town! This old classic packs a serious punch when you find the right conditions for yourself (for “conditions” read scaling options). The weight should be getting linked together in a feat of barbell cycling awesomeness. Choose a weight that will always allow you to hit 3 reps at a time.
For your toes to bar your grip will be the limiting factor. Today is a great day to experiment with small but quick sets. Keep jumping back up and see just how far you are able to get through in just 7 minutes.
If you aren't aware yet of what that all means then read here to see the original Blog post, & then click here to see ALL the Benchmark WoDs you will be getting tested on multiple times over this year.
To truly be varied in our Benchmarking & testing we must test across a multitude of modalities.
Today we hit up a golden oldie. This one tests your grip like few other workouts will. The barbell is meant to be cycled "touch & go style and the toes to bar want to be done in as few sets as possible each time. All this will demand a huge amount on your grip strength! Let's see what you got!!
Hold the standards. Form is priority as always.
Scale as needed.
Stay Humble. Work Hard. Be Happy.
