Big Rocks and Long Socks

JT Scott | 06/10/2016 | 1

CrossFitters wear long socks for rope climbs to help protect their legs from rope burn.

These people want to keep all of their skin intact.

Yeah, yeah. I know I said “dumbbells” yesterday, but today I really mean it. 🙂 We’re going to be picking up those big rocks today and throwing them overhead. On Monday we had some fairly light shoulder-to-overhead for 10 reps that really felt heavy as we got late in the rounds. This time the load will feel heavy early, but with a little practice and familiarity will actually start to feel a bit more manageable in the middle of this WOD.

Pushing in two different directions – up for the Shoulder-to-Overhead, and down for the Dips – obviously pairs well with Pulling, and Rope Climbs are a great way to have some fun and get some pulling done. Just remember to wear your long socks today!
