When performing this WOD you are encouraged to scale the prescribed weights if necessary as this workout is structured a bit differently in that if you put the bar down (any time other than when prescribed in rounds 3, 7 & 9), you are NOT allowed to continue. This is in order to respect the suffering our Lord Jesus Christ went through on our behalf. The workout is undeniably brutal. It will be a time to reflect on the gift all of us have been given from Jesus’ sacrifice.
If you don't have prescribed weights available, do the workout with what you have!
Happy Easter...
