WOD – Fri, Oct 18

Intent

Today we get after a skill that we don’t often practice: climbing rope. The skill session is there to really hone in on skills and understanding of the rope climb and to also be able to figure out how to best challenge yourself during the workout. You should have the bar loaded with a weight that is challenging for you. You may even be forced to do 3 sets to get to 7, but the overall working time of each interval should be approximately 1:1, giving you about 1:30 to rest before the next one begins!
