CrossFit Open Workout 15.2 Standards and Details

The CrossFit games 2015 Open kicked off last week with Open workout 15.1 and today we moved on to round 2 with the unveiling of Open Workout 15.2.  While Dave Castro really mixed it up for 15.1 with a two part workout starting with a Metcon and finishing with a strength element, 15.2 sees us covering old ground with a repeat of 14.2 from last years Open. The repeat of one of last years open workouts adds an additional layer of strategy with tons of data, results and videos to draw strategy and inspiration from, so get studying. You can find all the details of 15.2 below.
