Remember, more about the CrossFit Games Open 14.1 drops at 5pm, pill and we will do a test run at the 6:30pm class. That doesn’t mean you have to do the WOD: we’ll be working out proper warm up and prep, drugs pacing, strategy and transition plan to give you the best information possible.
If you do test the WOD, I highly suggest you do the pull-up strength work (unless pullups are a major factor in 14.1). You will need pullups later in the Open, and you can never be too good at pulling your body weight.
I highly recommend working strict pullups if possible. First, this will develop strength. Second, strict pullups are MUCH LESS brutal on your poor little hands.
