For the strength segment,  we are starting Week #3 of the Wendler 5-3-1 Program (more details here).  “Working 1RM” is defined as 90% of your current 1RM.  If you are not sure of your current 1RM talk to your Coaches and they’ll help you determine it.  Note:  1st work set is 5 reps, 2nd is 3 reps, and final work set is for “max reps”.  However, you should not be going to absolute failure on this last set.

For the Metcon, scale pullups as necessary.
