Workout:

"R.J."

5 Rounds For Time

Run 800 5 Rope Climbs (modification for this will be Rope Pull ups so if you're not doing the rope bring a towel) 50 Push ups (these are perfect push ups, if you can't do them with a rigid body then do them on your knees)

Let's discuss body awareness and knowing what position your body needs to be in when you are performing a certain exercise. Performing an exercise for the sake of time instead of doing it correctly with good form and full range of motion is just as bad as cheating on your rep count.  Actually it's worse due to the fact that you're most likely going to get injured performing the exercise with crappy form. Body Awarness and Posture should be numero uno on your mind while going through the wod, this is super super super important!!! Seriously i'm not concerned with how fast you do the wod but more concerned with the fact that you do it correctly. Time is important because we want the wod to be intense but never ever sacrifice form for a better time. The extra 1 minute or so that you take off the clock is not worth getting hurt over.  Remember that. Posture, Posture, Posture!!!

The coaches always say "make sure your back stays straight and tighten up your midsection".  If you are not sure what we mean or how to do that you have to ask.  If your body is in correct posture while performing the wods your chances of getting injured are greatly diminished. 

So just as you are going to give 100% in all your workouts make sure your aware of your posture throughout the workout.

Thanks for your particitpation and for listening to me.
