3 round of

  • 8 x Dumbbell Deficit Split Squats* @ 16kg per hand, left leg forward
  • 8 x Dumbbell Deficit Split Squats @ 16kg per hand, right leg forward

For the Split Squats, put both front foot and back foot on 20kg plates, bring knee to floor.

Then 4 rounds for time

  • 4 x Deadlift @ 100kg
  • 8 x Goblet Squats @ 24kg
  • 16 x Alternating Goblet Lateral Lunges @ 20kg (8 per side)*

* Have never really done these so be careful and go with a weight that is comfortable. Worried I’d pull my groin or something.

Then 3 rounds of

  • 3 x Single Leg V-Up (L+R=1 rep)
  • 2 x V-Ups
  • 1 x Laying Windsheild Wiper (L+R=1 rep)
  • Repeat the above for 3 sets (that is one round)

Results: Metcon 7:42. Deadlifts were harder than normal… Hamstrings/Lower Back really feeling it today.

5 rounds of

  • 3 x Back Squats @ 95% of 3RM

Then 3 rounds of

  • 12 x Front Foot Elevated Reverse Lunge @ 95lbs/43kg
  • 8 x Strict Pullups

Then 6 rounds of

  • 3 x Kettlebell Swings @ 24kg
  • 3 x Goblet Squats
  • 2 x Kettlebell Swings
  • 2 x Goblet Squats
  • 1 x Kettlebell Swings
  • 1 x Goblet Squats
  • Rest 30 seconds

Results: Used 220lbs/100kg for the Back Squat and held the bar in Front Rack and stepping from a 10cm step for the reverse lunges. Metcon 5:31 (could also do it as an EMOM since the work part took about 30 seconds).

Tried the new Whoop Strength app for the first time, worked pretty good…

EMOM for 16 minutes alternate the following movements (8 rounds of each)

  • 2 x L-Sit Ring Muscle Ups
  • 30 second Handstand Hold

Then 3 rounds of

  • 10 x TRX Tricep Extensions
  • 5 x Tuck Front Lever

Finisher, 8 rounds of 30 seconds on / 30 seconds off

  • Row

Results: Didnt get the full 30 seconds on some of the handstand holds since I was trying to be really close to the wall and as straight as possible…kept falling away from the wall. Probably need to face the wall instead of back to the wall. Row 80 calories including the extra slop between rounds.
