Athlete Notes:
The open is right around the corner, so why not make you guys test a couple that we’ve seen in the past, especially on a Friday when we expect most of you to hit them! If you’ve done this workout (and took notes like the good athletes you are) look back to what you did last time. How did you break things up? Where did you get most fatigued? What did you do well? What did you struggle with? The best part about open workouts are that we can look compare ourselves to the best in the world!

For those of you hitting this for the first time, say goodbye to your shoulders! Between the sets of 100 double unders, and all the movements in between, your shoulder endurance, and even forearm endurance, is really going to be tested here. As always with double unders, we never tell people to plan to break. You will likely trip at some point. That becomes your break. Try to stay smooth and relaxed through them in order to save your shoulders. Flexing and squeezing the handles will do you no good. For the overhead squats, if doing 20 in a row blows you up, then it’s ok to break these into 2-3 fast sets. But, if you set the bar down, you can’t stare at it too long. The ring and bar muscle ups will be what trip most people up. Ideally you are finishing all of them in 1-2 sets, but if you’re still learning or this volume is just too high, then work through them as best you can. We’d like to see everyone (as best as possible) keep the workout as it’s written, pending you’re able to do the movements. It will give you a good gauge as to where you’re at! The final movement is the dumbbell snatches. These should be unbroken and almost mindless. We’ve all used the 50/35lb dumbbells enough now to where this should just be a minor speed bump to the rest of the workout! Have some fun and test yourself today! Let us know what you tried, what went well, and what you would’ve done different!
