WODprep Strategy Top Tips:

If you’re a CrossFit athlete that’s looking to hit the bigger competitions, it was very clear from the recent Open that you will need to hit big percentage lifting work under fatigue.

If you’re finding yourself getting chewed up and spat out, then this will be perfect for you. Nothing in CrossFit comes easy. It literally requires blood, sweat and tears. 

Don’t let the low rep range deceive you. If you go out hot in this workout, round 5 will take your lunch money. The key to this workout is to find a steady pace on the run, break up the BBJO into manageable sets (probs reps of 5), and then push the barbell.
