Crossfit Open WOD 23.1

This is a slightly modified version of the Mens base WOD. AMRAP in 14 minutes of

  • 60 Calorie Row
  • 50 x Toes to Bar
  • 40 x Sandbag Thrusters @ 20kg (Rx is Wall Balls @ 10kg)

Results: At 14 minutes 161 reps (got to 11 Cleans). Continued and finished whole WOD in 21:20. Nice one. The weight above is for the normal men, which is what I used. Noticed later that for the 55-59 age group the Rx weight is only 115lbs. Maybe another time I’ll try the lighter weight and include Muscle Ups.
