HOW TO APPROACH THE WORKOUT

Traditional CrossFit Movements and variety.
Fitness 
The same crossfit methodology and challenge as the performance workouts, but without heavy barbells or high skill movements. Pure fitness without the complexity (oH yeah, and more volume).

A. Metcon (Time)
"21 Guns"

Strict Pull-ups

STRATEGY
-Choose variations or rep numbers that allow you to complete the sets of 21 in 2-3 sets when fresh
-This workout is all about the middle round of 15
-It is easy to come out in the set of 21's with large sets, but there are more reps in the final two rounds than in the first round of 21
-Strategically break up the set of 21 to help you thrive through the 15's and 9's

STIMULUS
Going light and long in this big chipper workout
Looking for the work to take somewhere in the 15-20 minute range
Choose a barbell weight that you could complete in 2 sets when fresh
With 100 total reps, this should be a weight that you can complete in 2-3 quick sets per round

STRATEGY
While the barbell sticks out on paper, the majority of today's workout will likely be spent running
Move with a purpose on the 800 meter runs and bar facing burpees, but find a pace that allows you to go big on the thrusters
Look to complete the thrusters in a quick 1-3 sets

1 Set: 50
2 Sets: 30-20 or 25-25
3 Sets: 25-15-10
