    Skill/Strength

    Back Squat
    A) Build to a heavy single in 12 minutes
    -This isn’t enough time for a TRUE 1RM. Just build to something that feels heavy for today.
    B) 1x Attempt at a 20 Rep Max back squat. Usually this will be around 75-80% of your 1RM but some of you may be capable of more. 1 Attempt at this. Hang in there!

    WOD

    3 Rounds
    1 Minute max calorie row
    1 Minute Rest
    1 Minute max Devils Press (2x 15/10kg)
    1 Minute Rest

    -Score will be LOWEST score of each in any one round.

    WOD

    19.5 2nd chance

    If you haven’t had a chance to have a go at the final open WOD, now is your chance. If you have, feel free to have another crack (ha!) or perhaps use the time to work on some weaknesses!

    Good idea here could be a 5k run!? Shock horror!

    Skill/Strength

    Weakness Day
    -As per last 4 weeks. Nothing structured… pick something you dislike or something you need to work on, and work on it! Nice and simple. It’s going to be thrusters tomorrow by the looks of things, perhaps with C2B pull ups, so perhaps go easy on the grip intensive stuff.

    WOD

    Partner 5000m Row
    -Split as you desire. Get the rower counting down from 5000m and use the clock on the monitor for your time.
