Big Class Notes:
If ropes or benches are short, stagger athletes by 2:00 within each 7:00 window so groups start on different stations, and rotate waiting athletes through rope pull to stands or ring rows. One GHD per 4 athletes is workable since the hold is the last station and lands at different times. This was written in a way that allows for waterfall start, athletes on different stations and starting points, or necessary subs for movements
