WODprep Strategy Top Tips:

Clean and Jerks:

  • This workout consists of decreasing repetitions for the clean and jerks, which means the rep schemes get easier as the workout goes on.
  • Start with a steady pace for the set of 10. Break it into smaller sets if needed to maintain good form and prevent early fatigue. For example, 5-5 or 4-3-3.
  • For the set of 8, aim to maintain your pace or even increase it slightly. Consider doing sets of 4-4 or 3-3-2.
  • As you move to the set of 6, it’s a good time to pick up the pace. If possible, aim for unbroken reps or shorter rest breaks.
  • The set of 4 should be fast. Try to complete it without breaking if you can.
  • Finally, for the set of 2, give it your all and sprint to the finish.

Box Jumps:

  • The box jumps require explosive power and coordination.
  • Start with a pace that you can comfortably maintain for the set of 20. .
  • For the set of 16, maintain a similar pace, but if you feel confident, you can try to speed up slightly.
  • As the reps decrease, push harder, and take shorter rest breaks between sets.
  • In the set of 8 and 4, give it your all to finish strong.

Wall Balls:

  • Wall balls can be demanding, especially on your legs and shoulders.
  • For the set of 30, break it into manageable sets like 10-10-10 or 15-15 if necessary.
  • As you progress to the set of 24, try to maintain a consistent pace and minimize rest breaks.
  • In the set of 18, you should be in a rhythm, focusing on breathing and efficient movement.
  • In the set of 12, push yourself to go unbroken or with minimal breaks.
  • Finally, in the set of 6, give it your all and sprint to the finish.
