Following the programming from CF Invictus this week with some slight modifications.

Five sets of:

  • 3 x Bench Press
  • Rest 30 seconds
  • 8 x Strict Toes to Bar
  • Rest 2 minutes

Then do 3 rounds for time of:

  • Run 400m
  • 40 x Push Ups
  • 40 x Air Squats

Then do one 15 sec work/45 sec rest L-Sit tabata.

Results:  For the Bench Press did 155/170/185/195/200lbs.  Got interrupted for the metcon so only ended up doing 2 rounds in 8:48.  For the L-Sit finished the last 3 tabata sets with bent knees , I thought that was better than drooping legs.

Every 4 minutes for 20 minutes (5 rounds), increasing weight per round do 3 sets of:

  • 1 x Hang Clean
  • 1 x Power Clean
  • 1 x Front Squat
  • 1 x Squat Clean

Try and complete the whole complex without putting the weight down. Increase weight per round.

  • 1.1.1 x Cluster (pause and reset between singles)
  • 3 x Weighted Pullups @ 30lbs

Results:  For the Clean Complex 65/75/80/95/100lbs.  For the Clusters 105/115/125/130lbs.
