    interesting open wod that it’s an oldie.

    found this tidbit. not sure it’s recommended, but apparently clean and jerk is allowed if you’re too tired to do a snatch since it has the same standards for start and end of movement:

    Also, something I forgot to have Nick mention in this post: I got the CFSV Open team setup and I added everyone who registered under the CFSV affiliate to the team. We’re all set for the Open!!

    Anyone remember which day we recently did a slightly modified version of this workout?

    Should Open people be resting today? Would that mean I should NOT try the pistol amrap? It looks fun….

      Do what makes you feel good while being in line with your goals. If you think a ton of pistols are going to tire your legs out for the workout tomorrow, take the day off and do some mobility. If you don’t care about doing the workout tomorrow with tired legs, go for it! But you can always do the pistol AMRAP another day if it looks like something fun and you’d rather rest.
