CrossFit is dependent on you being technical sound in your sport. Today work on your skills in a sport you need practice on. If you haven't set up rope practice and you will be doing ropes, you need to get this set up for next week. You'll need to tackle that once every 2 weeks starting next week.

I'll be scheduling that for you.

I'll help you get your body ready, but you have to get your skills ready!

Warm up and once your feel good about the skills tackle this:
