Comments Off on Split Squats plus ACF’s Family is Forever

Not for time do 5 rounds of:

  • 5 x Racked Split Squats @ 40kg

For time complete the following while EMOM doing 5 Bar Hop Burpees (inspired by Atomic Crossfit’s Family is Forever).

  • 25 x Sumo Deadlift Highpull (30kg)
    10 x Plate Pushups
    20 x SDLHP
    15 x Plate Pushups
    15 x SDLHP
    20 x Plate Pushups
    10 x SDLHP
    25 x Plate Pushups

Results:  AMRAP took 13:54 (that was 65 burpees!).  HR max = 174 / ave = 165.  This was amazingly hard.  Maybe because on Atomic Crossfit they only had 3 burpees and I messed up and did 5.

Comments Off on Push Press, Cleans and C2B Pullups then an AMRAP

Not for time, perform 5 rounds of:

  • 5 x Push Press  @ 50kg

Then every 2 minutes on the minute (E2MOM) perform 5 rounds of:

  • 1 x Clean
  • 3 x Chest to Bar Pullup

Then do AMRAP in 8 minutes of (taken from Athlete Games Qualifier WOD 3):

  • 8 x Deadlift @ 60kg (RX was 50kg)
  • 16 x Wall Balls @ 10kg (RX was 7kg)
  • 16 x Box Jumps

Results:  For the Cleans I did 60kg, 65kg, 67.5kg, 70kg, 70kg (new 1RM!). For the AMRAP did 140 reps total (3 rounds plus 20 reps) which would have been 47th place in the Masters 45+ category (except I used heavier weights 😛 ).  HR max = 172 / ave = 159.

Comments Off on Front Squats then Burpees, Thrusters, Pullups and Double Unders

Not for time, perform the following:

  • 5 x Front Squats @ 40kg
  • 5 x FS @ 50kg
  • 5 x FS @ 53kg
  • 5 x FS @ 60kg
  • 5 x FS @ 63kg

Then, for time do 1 round of:

  • 21 x Burpees
  • 15 x Thrusters @ 43kg
  • 9 x Strict Pullups
  • 200 x Double Unders
  • 9 x Strict Pullups
  • 15 x Thrusters
  • 21 x Burpees

Results:  Front Squats went so well, tried to make 68kg (bodyweight) but was unable to clean that weight at the end of the round.  For the Metcon 14:58 HR max = 175 / ave = 165. Brutal, thrusters suck on the wrists (funny that the front squats above did not).  Graph below is interesting… long plateau in the middle must be the double unders and the plateau at the end the final 21 burpees.
