What about Form?

Form and technique will suffer when going for a best time,however generally it is recommended that beginners concentrate on form and simply allow time to tick by,this will maintain the intensity of the WO in its own right. As your skill level increases then with correct scaling of reps and weights,"For Best Time" can be attempted.However "Best Times" usually accompany repetition's of a WO due to familiarity and improved technique,regardless of whether its an official attempt or not.
