What is the WOD: 

“Hope”

Three rounds of:
Burpees
75 pound Power snatch
Box jump, 24" box
75 pound Thruster
Chest to bar Pull-ups

"Hope" has the same format as Fight Gone Bad. In this workout you move from each of five stations after a minute. This is a five-minute round from which a one-minute break is allowed before repeating. The clock does not reset or stop between exercises. On call of "rotate," the athlete/s must move to next station immediately for good score. One point is given for each rep.

What about scaling?
Of course there's scaling! That's why CrossFit is inclusive for everyone. When we do this workout on June 9th, we'll scale the loads down, boxes down, and pullup styles down by lane.

How should I keep score?
On a piece of paper, create four columns. Column one contains a list of the five movements, columns two through four will track with rounds one, two, and three. As you move from station to station, just write in the number of reps. Total at the end for score.
During the June 9th running of this workout, each of you will have a partner assigned to push you and keep score on your behalf.
