Followed by. . .

Every minute, on the minute, for 9 minutes (3 sets) of:
Interval 1 – Rope Climb (with or without legs) x 2-3 reps
*If possible for the 35-49 division, start with a legless rope climb then use your legs when necessary.

All Age Divisions
Three rounds for time of:
500 Meter Row
20 Burpees over the Erg

55+: Stepping over the erg is okay

Note:
Practice getting in and out of the erg quickly. Try using this technique:
While on the erg, place the thumbs on the strap buckles. Press down with the thumbs. KEEP YOUR THUMBS ON THE BUCKLES while you pull up with your toes. Then release your thumbs and slide your feet down and then out of the foot holds. This will loosen the straps so that when you get back on the erg, the straps are loose and you can slide your feet onto the foot holds without struggle. Practice this technique for todays session to help speed up your transition on and off the erg.

D.
Three sets of:
Sorenson Hold x 45 seconds
Rest 60 seconds
Ring-Rows x 8-10 reps @ 2111 (elevate your feet if this is easy)
Rest 60 seconds

Optional Session (Best performed 3-4 hours between sessions. This is optional so complete this session if you have time in your day and you are planning on doing the Open)

A.

Row x 15 calories
Power Snatch x 12 reps
Rest 2 minutes

35-54: 75/55 lbs
55+: 65/45 lbs

Note:

Try different techniques for the power snatch and focus on keeping a relaxed grip. This weight is relatively light so that means you can move fast, just remember to breathe and keep a relaxed grip on the barbell. Ensure you make every rep full range of motion and see how quickly you can cycle these. The row is in there just to get your heart rate up.

B.
Three sets of:
Bottoms Up KB Carry x 50′ each arm
Rest 60 seconds
Single Leg Hip Bridge on Bench x 10 reps per leg
Rest 60 seconds
