Benchmark WOD
A benchmark WOD is generally considered a workout standard across CrossFit allowing you to compare your progress against others. Girl WODs, such as Fran or Amanda, are examples of benchmark WODs.

Tips and Strategy
A good approach is to get smaller yet faster sets of the pull ups out of the way, then hit the push ups in a controlled way. Don’t go too far in your sets early, you’ll need the energy for the sit ups and squats. Which when you get to the 2nd half of this wod, just go for it, push as hard as you can, especially in the squats – just don’t stop until you’re done. 🙂
Scaling Options
If Rx pull-ups and/or push-ups aren’t available to you yet, pick a challenging scale that allows you to complete unbroken sets of 5, at least. (See: Push-Up Scaling | Pull-Up Scaling)
