Monday Workout: Benchmark WOD Karen

STRENGTH

In 10 Minutes, build to heavy 3-rep Thruster from the floor

Notes: This is meant to act as a primer for the workout – go for a challenging set of 3 but not a max, and make sure you are resting around 90-120 seconds between attempts. If your position feels off, spend time between attempts staying mobile that you are efficient on the wall balls in the workout.

*Scale to 5×5 Dumbbell Thruster (1 set every other minute for 10 minutes)
