Karen DT Interrupted

Longtime Arena Ready members know we love our “DT” variations at this gym — I think we’ve probably created over a dozen WODs the last few years using the DT barbell sequence as a critical component.

Coach Steven and I were chatting during Open Gym recently about a workout we saw Jacob Heppner doing which involved… what else but “DT.” Oh, and “Karen” as well. So we took it, slightly massaged it to fit a good class structure and stimulus, and BOOM here’s your mid-week mash-up of two classic CrossFit WODs.

Blame Coach Steven. Or Jacob Heppner. Or both. Just don’t blame me because originally I planned on stretching for an hour and telling scary stories during Halloween Wednesday classes.
