Tips for Annie WOD
- This couplet is designed to be a sprint. When scaling, keep in mind you want efficient, not sloppy, movement to fall under a 10:00 minute time cap. Record your results and repeat the workout in the near future to measure improvement.
- Avoid “red lining” in the high rep rounds. Use a steady unbroken pace, then sprint through the last three rounds.
