G=gymnastics: meaning body weight movement, one that involves controlling your body through space. W=weightlifting: meaning controlling an external object and moving your body around that object in space. As experienced CrossFitters you understand very well that many of our workouts are comprised of two movements that are not necessarily in the same domain. That a high level of proficiency with one of the movements almost guarantees a lack of ability or capacity in the other. That is, until one trains by putting these movements together and developing the general skills as well as the capacity to move heavy loads AND one’s own body. Let’s see who excels at this WOD… and we will also see (based on the tangible evidence in the form of post-workout data) who needs more work on one or both of these movements. Good news- by doing this workout… you will get better at not ONLY these movements- but others as well. You are developing GPP… general physical preparedness!
