Athlete Notes:
Today’s workout is going to be a longer AMRAP with a bunch of movements we wouldn’t be surprised to see this season! That said, there’s a sneaky little 60 second rest requirement (similar to the 2021 open) that not only shortens the workout, it makes you have to move faster! The first few rounds of this should be done at a sprint pace because you’re only going to be working for a short amount of time then getting a full minute to rest. As the workout extends further, you’ll have to be more strategic about breaking up some of gymnastics movements as those reps will be ascending. The dumbbell movements stay at 8 the entire time, so we’d like to see you push that. This workout will come down to being fast and efficient on the gymnastics, and muscle fatigue that will catch up in the later minutes!
