Back Squats plus a 30/30 Metcon

Every 2 minutes on the minute do Back Squats as follows:

5-5-5-5-5 @ 80kg

Then for time complete:

  • Row 30 calories
  • 30 x Wall Balls
  • 30 x Pullups
  • 30 x Box Jumps
  • 30 x Snatches @ 30kg
  • 30 x Burpees
  • Row 30 calories

Results:  16:15.  The original workout also had Toes to Bar as a the second set, but I forgot to do it when I was working out so if you are up to an extra challenge add them into the mix.  Be warned, as written it was already really hard.

Push Press then an AMRAP of Burpee Pullups, Dips and Pistols

Not for time, Push Press:

  • 5 x 30kg
  • 5 x 40kg
  • 5 x 50kg
  • 3 x 55kg
  • 3 x 55kg
  • 3 x 55kg
  • 5 x 40kg

Then AMRAP in 12 minutes

  • 12 x Burpee Pullups
  • 9 x Dips
  • 6 x Pistol Squats (3 per leg)

Results:  4 rounds plus 12 Pullups, 9 Dips and 5 Pistols.

Deadlifts and T2B then Cleans, Front Squats and S2O

Do 8 rounds of the following, rest 2 minutes between rounds:

  • 8 x Deadlifts
  • 8 x Toes to Bar (touch and go)

Then complete as many rounds and reps as possible in 10 minutes of:

  • 1 x Power Clean @ 43Kg
  • 1 x Front Squat @ 43Kg
  • 1 x Shoulder to Overhead @ 43Kg
  • 2 x Power Cleans
  • 2 x Front Squats
  • 2 x Shoulder to Overhead
  • 3 x Power Cleans
  • 3 x Front Squats
  • 3 x Shoulder to Overhead
  • …and so on.

Results:  Great combination… For the touch and go toes to bar I  tried to go as fast as possible touching the bar and then the ground for the 8 reps, so need a bar which lets you touch your feet to the ground, probably at the same height as for jumping pullups (mid-forearm when standing flat on the ground).  For the second part competed 7 full rounds, put the bar down as needed.

Squats and Pullups, then Handstand Hold and L-Sit, then a Metcon
