Start with 2012 Open WOD #1
Perform as many burpees as possible in 7 minutes. During the up phase of the burpees, both hands must touch a target 6 inches above your max standing reach. A coach will help ensure your target is correct. During the down phase, your hips and CHEST (not belly) must simultaneously touch the ground. If you are entered in the Open, a coach must count for you and verify proper reps. Expect the grading to be very by the book.
Good luck.

After recovering, continue with the…
SWOD:  Power snatch 2-2-2-2-2-2 (work up to a 2 rep max).

Afternoon session done. Here are our results so far:

If you are competing in the 2012 Open, today is a rest day. Do skill work to prepare for WOD 1 (and the unknown WODS 2, 3, 4…), and keep it light!
If you aren’t competing…
SWOD:  Bench Press 3X5 (add 5 lbs to last week’s effort)
DWOD:  “Death by Back Squat”
1 back squat the first minute, 2 the second, 3 the third, etc.  Rx weight is your body weight.  (Competition Rx is 225/115.)  Coaches notes:  Most will need to scale down more, to something like 135/65.  Urge most people to scale down more than they think they really need to.  Watch the athletes closely to ensure correct mechanics.

SWOD: Power Clean 5X3 (add 2.5 lbs to last week’s effort)

DWOD: “Tabata Diane”.
This is an 8 minute workout where you alternate between 20 seconds of deadlifts and 20 seconds of handstand pushups. Between each 20 second effort, there are 10 seconds of “rest” (actually spent running back and forth between your deadlift bar and the wall).

Choose your weight judiciously for the deadlifts. Your aim is to be able to keep moving through the set, not spending too much time staring at the bar.
Record your DL weight, and total reps for the whole WOD.
