WHAT IF I CANNOT DO THE PRESCRIBED (RX'ED) WEIGHT SPECIFIED IN THE WOD?

Use a weight that's manageable to you, or use a percentage of the weight prescribed. Assume the "generic" male crossfitter weighs 175 and the prescribed weight is 95 lbs. Thus, you'd pick a weight that's approximately 55% of your bodyweight.
