22/3/13 – CrossFit Return Cork – Open Wod 13.3

13.3 has been announced at it is a repeat of one of last years. It involves a movement (Wall Balls) that we have not spent much time on but no better way to be introduced to them. As I say every week I can’t recommend enough that you try the Open workouts as it introduces you to a whole other part of CrossFit. The last two weeks have been brilliant as the buzz in the gym is something different with the Open. Best of luck to all the athletes registered for the Open. The workout can be easily scaled for the rest so don’t be worried about the movements. Again we will be counting and judging for eachother so all you have to worry about it getting the work done!

A. 12min Amrap

150 Wall Balls 10/7kg

90 Doubleunders

30 Muscle Ups
