AMRAP in 20 minutes of:

  • 5 x Power Clean @ 43kg
  • 5 x Push Press @ 43kg
  • 5 x Burpees

Results: I’ve done this workout twice before back in 2014 (11 sets plus 10 reps and 14 sets plus 10 reps) but those times used only 40kg and did some strength work before.  This time as shown above did exactly 15 sets (pushed hard to get the last 5 burpees).

Then do the metcon part of Atomic Crossfit Burrittooooo – Every 6 minutes for 18 minutes… 3 sets:

  • 500m Row
  • 30 x Kettlebell Swings
  • 15 x Plyometric Pushups

Results:  Used 18kg for the TGU.  For the metcon each took:  Set1 – 3:50, Set2 – 4:10, Set3 – 4:45 (kind of took it easy on the last set 🙂 )

Every 2 minutes for 10 minutes

  • Minutes 0, 4, 8, 12, 16 – 5 x Bench Press @ 165lbs
  • Minutes 2, 6, 10, 14, 18 – Pullup Variations.. for example:  Minute 2 – 5 x Weighted Pullup, Minute 6 – Max Effort Chinup, Minute 10 – Max Effort Pullup, Minute 14 – 5 x Weighted Pullup, Minute 18 – Max Effort Pullup

Then for time do:

  • 30 Calorie Row
  • 30 x Ring Dips
  • 20 x Snatches @ 75lbs
  • 20 x Burpees
  • 10 x Front Squats @ 95lbs
  • 10 x Pull-ups & 10 x Hand-Release Push-ups

Results: For the metcon finished in 16:03.  I don’t think my new rower measures calories like a Concept2.  It took me around 4 minutes to complete the 30 calories which when comparing to other workouts is too long.
