I’ll be rolling out a skill warm up in the coming days.  It will be 3 warm ups of 3 different CrossFit skills.  It is meant to be done before the workout and not for time.  These will be the “advanced” level movements, buy information pills but this can be scaled to your ability level.  Movements like pistols, chest to bar pullups, double unders, toes to bar and muscle ups will be included. This work is completely optionally.  It is geared to folks that are looking at really expanding their fitness, developing higher level skills and possibly competing in the Sport of CrossFit. I’m stealing a WOD from Freddy Camacho today.  Check out the video below.  If you go really fast, and you’re a Master’s athlete, maybe you’ll earn a trip to Miami.  Local stud Terry Dickman got 45 reps.
