WOD – Mon, Oct 27

Intent

(0-5)

Similar to a CrossFit Games benchmark known as “The Standard”, today we execute it with bar muscle ups. The idea is to select a barbell load that you could cycle for consecutive reps for both the power snatch and the power clean and jerk, but you don’t have to in order to meet today’s stimulus–in fact that may be a disaster. A good score can be a result from disciplined barbell singles and steady small sets on the bar muscle ups. The scaling for bar muscle ups should be a rep range or a version that allows you to finish 30 in under 4:00 approximately.
