Every 2 minutes for 6 minutes (three sets) do

  • 6-8 x Bench Press @ Bodyweight (currently 165lbx/75kg)
  • 6-8 x Strict Pull ups

Then every 2 minutes for 6 minutes do

  • 6-8 x Back Squat@ Bodyweight
  • 6-8 x Strict Toes to Bar

Then every 2 minutes for 6 minutes do

  • 6-8 x Deadlift @ Bodyweight
  • 6-8 x Dips

Between each round take 8-10 minutes to setup for the next set and to warm up for the lift (Bench Press, Back Squat, Deadlift). Warmed up for each of the lifts with 5 rounds of 5 reps of increasing weight to get up to the working weight.

Results:  Did all 8 reps for each set, except in the first round, so could have gone up with the weight for the Back Squats and Deadlifts. Nice workout after the killer workout from last weekend :-).

Crossfit mainsite WOD from 2013….

For time do

  • 100 Double Unders

Then 5 rounds of

  • 10 x Dumbbell Deadlifts @ 20kg per hand
  • 10 x Dumbbell Front Squats @ 20kg per hand
  • 10 x Handstand Pushups

Then

  • 100 Double Unders

Results:   17:45. Good shoulder workout.  20kg Dumbbells are a lot harder than a 40kg bar (would have probably finished in half the time)!

Warm up with a 1k row.

EMOM for 10 minutes do the following.  Start with spending 10 minutes getting to a good working weight for the Barbell Rows so you can do the 8 reps without breaking and with good form.

  • Even minute – 8 x Bent Barbell Rows
  • Odd minute – 20 second L-Sit  accumulated

For time do 4 rounds of the following.  This is a crossfit.com WOD and has a good time cap of 26-30 minutes, but I set my time cap for 20 minutes since I didn’t have more time.

  • 30 x Push Ups
  • 20 x Front Squat @ 95lbs
  • 20 x Push Press @ 95lbs
  • 30 x Situps

Results: Used 95lbs for the barbell rows.  Metcon was really hard. I ended up only doing 2 rounds plus 70 reps in the 20 minutes.
