There are the ten physical skills… but it’s so hard to remember them all. Let’s simplify and try and describe all WODs as either strength based, a slog or a sprint.
A strength based WOD is easy to spot. Low reps, high weight. Think 3,3,3 dead lifts or 1,1,1,1,1 back squats. The slog – also easy to spot. Lots of rounds and lots of reps. Think Filthy Fifty or Mr. Joshua. And finally, the sprint – easy to spot. Lighter weights, between one and three movements. Think Fran or 500 meters for time.
Alright. So they’re all easy to spot. Now come two tough questions: which one are you good at? Which one are you crummy at? And then the tougher question: what are you doing to overcome your weakness? Surely the brave will post the answers to these questions in the comments.
