Take 15-20 minutes and work up to a heavy

  • 3 x Back Squats

Took the next part from CF New England WOD from April 3, 2018.

AMRAP in 4 minutes of

  • 7 Cal Row
  • 21 x Toes to Bar
  • 21 x Front Squats @ 95lbs

Rest 4 minutes then AMRAP in 4 minutes of

  • 7 Cal Row
  • 15 x T2B
  • 15 x Front Squats @  115lbs

Rest 4 minutes then AMRAP in 4 minutes of

  • 7 Cal Row
  • 9 x T2B
  • 9 x Front Squats @ 135lbs

Results:  For the Back Squats got up to 205lbs/93kg.  For the rowing part I picked a target which I can do in around 1 minute even though the real WOD used 21, 15 and 9 calories for each (not sure how you fit that into 4 minutes unless the goal is not to complete the first round).  Using my version I ended up with, 1 round plus 3 calories, 1 round plus 3.5 calories, 1 round plus 6 calories.
