STRATEGY + WOD
GENERAL
With the score being the slowest of the 3 rounds, consistency is key
It can be helpful to declare your first round as your slowest of the day
Come out at a controlled pace that you know you can match or improve with the following 2 rounds
This allows you to stay in the drivers seat for the rest of the workout instead of living in the panic zone
The hang squat clean is the only place we’d stop, so aim for 1-2 sets there
Your row pace should support 1-2 sets on the bar
