Take 10 minutes and accumulate

  • 2 minutes L-Sit

Take 15-20 minutes and work on something new…

10 rounds for time (20 min time cap)

  • 6 x Alternating Pistol Squats (3 per leg)
  • 9 x Handstand Pushups
  • 12 x Toes to Bar

Results: Did a 10-15 second L-Sits hold each minute to complete the full 2 minutes. Worked on my Kettlebell Snatches today… went well and I was able to work up to a smooth 20kg x 3 on each arm. Metcon: 8 rounds plus 2 reps at the time cap.

4 rounds of

  • 6 x Strict Press @ 80% of 3RM

Then AMRAP in 12 minutes

  • 3 x Devil Press @ 18kg per Hand
  • 20 x Alternating Reverse Lunge to Step Ups (10 per leg) @ Bodyweight

Results: Used 115lbs for the Strict Press. Went much better this time… got all 4 rounds in. Heavy Devil Presses since it is only 3 reps 😀. Metcon 6 rounds exactly. Not as challenging as I thought it would be, next time add weight to the step up or go lighter on the Devil Press and increase to 6 reps.

3 rounds of

  • 12 x Bench Press @ 90% of Bodyweight
  • 6 x Single Arm Bent Rows @ 24-32kg

Then Death by Pullups… every 2 minutes until failure

  • Bike 400m
  • 4 x Strict Pullups
  • add 2 Pullups per round, break as needed to get all reps in the 2 minutes

Then Death by Dips… every 2 minutes until failure

  • Row 200m
  • 4 x Dips
  • add 2 Dips per round, break as needed to get all reps in the 2 minutes

Results: Used 140lbs/64kg for the Bench Press. Did the Bent Rows with 24kg for the first round, 32kg for rounds 2 and 3. Metcon 5 rounds plus 6 reps and 5 rounds plus 12 reps. Perfect combos… finished bike and rower in around 40-50 seconds each round. Luckily my bike and rower are right next to my Pullup bar. If they are farther away try subbing with 200m run or 75 double unders.
