Workout Overview

Stimulus

In part 1, we are moving into our “build to a heavy” week.  This allows athletes to find their 1RM after the 12 week strength cycle we have been following.  Allow athletes 10:00 to find their heavy one rep for the day.  In part 2, Classic CrossFit piece today for 3 fast paced rounds! While the workout itself is meant to be consistent moving from beginning to end, most of us will need to decide which of these 3 movements to use as our pacer and a little bit of recovery for our breathing. Can you hold back a little in Round 1 in order to be able to empty the tank in Round 3?!
