NOTE: The Open continues this week. Good or bad, forget about last week and be ready to attack whatever gets thrown at us this time. It is important to remain focused on our goal each week of performing our best on the Open workouts and letting that remain our central focus over the next weeks of training.

***This means if we are feeling really sore we should intentionally hold back (think 80% effort) on today’s workout so we can perform our best on Friday. If we are feeling good then get after it, but remember, stay focused on the goal!

Do the gym programming (RX’d or competitor) for the day.
Rest 30 minutes
On the Minute for 20 minutes:
