The workout (which I copied directly from the CrossFit Games Website) is this:
Workout 12.1
Complete as many reps as possible in 7 minutes of:
Burpees
This workout begins from the standing position. The Athlete will move from flat on the ground to touching an object with both hands that is 6 inches above their max reach. Score is total reps completed.
I came out swinging too hard for sure. When I retry this thing tomorrow, I will pace myself a little more out of the gate.
What did YOU guys think about it? What were some of your strategies? I’m very curious to hear.
GOOD LUCK on Week #1, everyone!
(Sidenote: We have the best athletes at CrossFit Lakewood! Thank you guys so much for your constant support… not only for me, but for each other! This 5-week competition is going to be so amazing.)
