A small exerpt from a recent article about Scaling in the CrossFit Journal states:
“If the WOD calls for 30 clean and jerks at 155 pounds, it’s clearly a met-con WOD. If you turn the workout into 30 single reps with a minute rest between them, you’ve missed the point.”
Sometimes we get so focused on going heavy or getting to “Rx’d” weights that we tend to miss the point. As Crossfitters we strive to do more work in less time (increase Power output). When you go heavy and drag the workout out longer then it’s intended, you’re reducing that potential for increasing your power output. Properly scaling WOD’s to meet your relative capacity is going to be your fastest route to a dramitic improvement in your fitness.

30 rounds completed.
Had pulled quad from flag football the night before, on round 5 or 6 my calf on the right started to hurt from compensating for the pulled quad. Getting up from sit ups was the hardes part.
Got called for false starting run, had problems running due to pulled quad. Was trying not to be in peoples way during the run, rounded the corner at the end but ran a bit further on the way back to get out of mostly my sisters way when she was coming in. Tried to keep it all honest by putting in the extra effort at the completion of the run. Not sure if I did though.
