Athlete Notes:
If you are looking for some motivation today go back and watch some footage of athletes tackling the last event, “The Standard,” at the 2019 Games. What an epic event that was, and now you get the opportunity to complete it today! The hang cleans will have warmed you up, but make sure you get a few muscle-ups in prior to the start of the workout.

Be measured on your opening clean & jerks. We don’t want to see people PR’ing their Grace here! Break up the 30 reps in one or two more sets than you normally would tackling Grace. Stay away from any grinding reps on the muscle-ups as we do not want to see you hit failure. We would rather see you break early and more often on the muscle-ups then go for a big set and then start failing attempts. You can unleash the inner beast once you get to the snatches. Stay focused at this station since you will be tired here and wanting to rest. Be diligent in getting your shins to the barbell and every rep completed is one rep closer to finishing. This workout was a hit as the finale of the 2019 CrossFit Games with Mat Fraser winning in 8:05, and Tia Clair Toomey winning in 8:25. How close can you get to those times?
