EMOM for 6 minutes

  • 3 x Strict Press @ 80% of 1RM

Rest 1 minute, then EMOM for 6 minutes

  • 3 x Push Press @ 80% of 1RM

Then 5 rounds for time

  • 8 x Pullups
  • 8 x Dumbbell Hang Snatch Left @ 18kg
  • 8 x Alt. DB Overhead Reverse Lunge Left Hand (4 reps per leg) @ 18kg
  • 8 x Dumbbell Hang Snatch Right @ 18kg
  • 8 x Alt. DB Overhead Reverse Lunge Right Hand @ 18kg

Results: 1RM Strict Press is 150lbs. 80% is 120lbs/55kg. Turned out to be a good model, since I was at my limit after both EMOMs. Metcon 12:08.

7 rounds Deadlift with the following rep scheme

  • 5 x @ 60%
  • 3 x @ 70%
  • 3 x @ 80%
  • 2 x @ 85%
  • 1 x @ 90%
  • 1 x @ 95%
  • 1 x @ 95+%

Then a scaled version of the Incredible Hulk WOD (Rx is AMRAP 20 @ 115lbs for men / 75lbs for women) AMRAP in 15 minutes of

  • 5 x Deadlift @ 75lbs/34kg
  • 5 x Hang Power Clean @ 75lbs
  • 5 x Front Squat @ 75lbs
  • 5 x Push Press @ 75lbs
  • 5 x Back Squat @ 75lbs

Results: My 1RM Deadlift was around 300lbs/136kg. Deadlift 185-215-235-255-275-295-295lbs/134kg (that’s all the weights I have 😞). I have to assume my 1RM is now above 136kg… maybe 140? Metcon 10 rounds plus 10 reps.

3 rounds of

  • 6 x Weighted Pullup @ 10kg
  • Rest 1 minute
  • 8 x Weighted Dips @ 10kg
  • Rest 2 minutes

Then immediately following the last rest do one round of

  • 6 x Strict Pullups
  • Rest 1 min
  • 8 x Dips

Then 5 rounds of 30 second work, 30 second rest (25 minutes total)

  • TRX Pike Press
  • TRX Rear Foot Elevated Split Squat Left
  • TRX Pushup
  • TRX RFE Split Squat Right
  • TRX Tricep Extensions

Keep the TRX Straps at the same length throughout.

Results: I didn’t count the TRX stuff so just do it as best as possible. I kept the handles of the TRX at around knee high. For the split squats, I put my foot through both loops otherwise the strap dropped too low. Heavy TRICEP workout.
