Tips for the Grace WOD

  • This workout was designed to be a sprint. When scaling, keep in mind you want efficient, not sloppy, movement to fall under a 8:00 minute time cap. Record your results and repeat the workout in the near future to measure improvement.
  • Avoid going to failure. Stop 1-2 reps short of failing.
  • Use a moderate to fast pace for the first 20 reps, then sprint through the final 10 reps.
