WOD – Thu, Feb 5

Intent

(0-5):

We are going big today. No, not big sets, but big volume overall. With a very condensed turn around, this triplet will start “fast” and start to slow quickly. Rounds 1-6 will feel familiar like many metcons and after that the work becomes very repetitive as well as the fatigue in specific muscles. The workout is put together so that the biggest limiter should be overall fitness AKA breathing and discomfort vs. one specific muscle group limiting you from proceeding. Scale so that it feels similar to that for you.
