Notes:

If you’ve ever done the CrossFit Benchmark workout “Kelly”, which totals five rounds of the above listed movements, you know that the higher repetition numbers make it more of a pacer when compared to “Helen”, which is more of a sprint when traditionally done. With a combination of both workouts today, we’d almost rather approach this as if athletes were completing 4 rounds of “Kelly”. This means finding a steady pace on the run and a maintainable break up strategy for the swings, pull-ups, box jumps, and wall balls. One or two small breaks on each of the movements inside the gym combined with a pace that athletes envision that could hold for a two mile run will ensure consistency across the rounds. Looking to push the pace once athletes reach the wall balls and box jumps on the final round of “Kelly”.
