This portion of the test is designed to show that you have a well rounded, entry level skill set that will allow you to perform most CrossFit WODs effectively. Each person will struggle with different parts of this test. Here we aim to identify significant weaknesses and then exploit them until they are no longer weaknesses.

8 Rounds of
:20 sec Air Squat

#3 Kipping Pull-Ups:
