Hey Friends!
So there are a lot of Open WODs and open style WODs over the next couple weeks to prepare us for the Open. They’re typically good combo’s (we skip the weird ones… there’s no reason to practice 150 wall balls until we have to) and it’ll be good practice.

*Women’s “As Prescribed” weights and reps (Rx)
Scaling Guide: 17 – 27 Minutes, Scale Up: 155/105 and 45/25
Squat cleaning the first repetition counts as a rep for the thrusters. These should be unbroken for the first 2-3 rounds at least (otherwise you may have gone too heavy). For the weighted pull ups use a dumbbell. If the knurling (tread) on the dumbbell handle is rough, you may want to wrap a towel, t-shirt, or something else around it to protect your legs. Kipping on these is allowed, but be careful when you drop the dumbbell. Pace it out then go for broke at the end.
