The first part of this WOD is inspired by a training plan I saw for Spartan races.  The second part is the Crossfit Mainsite WOD from Feb 16, 2019.

For max reps, cycle through 5 rounds of each, resting 30 seconds between each station.

  • 1 Minute Mountain Climbers
  • 1 Minute Strict Pullups
  • 1 Minute Situps

Then 9 rounds of Deadlift with the following rep scheme

  • 5-5-3-3-3-1-1-1-1

Rest 2 minutes between rounds, increase weight each round.

Results:  120 Mountain Climbers(R+L=1), 54 Pullups, 111 Situps.  Deadlift 135-155-170-185-205-225-255-275-290lbs.

The scaling is not exactly the same as the one on the Games site, used full pullups here instead of jumping pullups and lighter weights for the snatch and OHS.

Prior to 8:00, complete  3 rounds of:

  • 6 x Pullups
  • 6 x Power Snatch + Overhead Squat @ 45 lb

Then, 3 rounds of:

  • 7 x Pullups
  • 5 x Power Snatch + Overhead Squat @ 65 lb

Prior to 12:00, complete 3 rounds of

  • 8 x Pullups
  • 4 x Power Snatch + Overhead Squat @ 75 lb

Prior to 16:00, complete 3 rounds of:

  • 9 x Pullups
  • 3 x Power Snatch + Overhead Squat @ 95 lb

Prior to 20:00, complete 3 rounds of

  • 10 x Pullups
  • 2 x Power Snatch + Overhead Squat @ 115 lb

Prior to 24:00, complete 3 rounds of:

  • 11 x Pullups
  • 1 x Power Snatch + Overhead Squat @ 135 lb

Results:  Crushed it this time… 9 rounds plus 10 reps (118 reps/16 minutes). Last time finished 7 rounds + 9 reps (93 reps total/12 minutes).  My overhead squat has improved considerably and at 45lbs I can now do a squat snatch so that speeds things up.

Streetparking WOD from June 6, 2018…

EMOM for 20 minutes

  • Even Minute – 5 x Lateral Burpees over the Bar + 5 x Hang Clean and Jerk
  • Odd Minute – 4 x Bar Facing Burpees + 4  Thrusters

Results: For the bench press 135-155-170-185-200-205-215-220-165lbs. 220lb is a new 1RM for Bench Press.  For the metcon chose my weight poorly (95lbs/43kg), so recommend going a bit lighter.  Stopped in the 15th minute because I could only get through the burpees.
