Deadlifts then Pullups, Row and Walking Lunges

Followed the Crossfit Invictus WOD from July 30, 2019.  Metcon was a complete fail.

Results: A. Deadlifts 185-210-230-245-265-285lbs.  B. Needed to scale better or just give up, only managed two rounds neither within the 6 minutes. Scaled to 45lb DBs from the start, but switched to kipping pullups (not C2B) in the second round.  Since I don’t have a Concecpt II scaled my rower to 15 cal in the first round (2:06), 10 cal in the second round (1:33). 7:15, 6:09. Ugh.

Cleans then G2OH, Front Squats and Burpees

After warmup, take 10-15 minutes to work on L-Sit progressions.  Single\Double Leg Pike Lift with or without parallelettes.

Did the Crossfit Invictus Performance WOD from July 29, 2019.

Results:  Part A – Hang Clean + Clean 95-105-110-115-120-125-130-135lbs.  Part B – 2 rounds plus 9 reps. Used 115lbs for the G2OH and FS, subbed Burpees over the Bar for the BJO.

Back Squats then Wall Balls, Sandbag Thrusters and KBS

Followed the Crossfit Invictus Performance WOD from July 25, 2019.
