Spend 15 minutes working on slow press to HEADstand. See this YouTube Video for what I mean.

Then

  • 3 x 10 second Frog Stand Hold
  • 2 x 10 second Wall Facing Handstand Hold (wall walk up until very close with wall)
  • 3 x Frog Stand Press to Handstand (against wall)

Then 4 rounds of

  • 6 x Dip to L-Sit (from Bars, all in one movement, first a dip then into an L-Sit then back to Dip…, etc.)
  • Rest as needed

Then as finisher, Crossfit WOD from 08 Jan… 3 rounds for time

  • 15 x Hang Power Snatch @ 65lbs/30kg
  • 10 x Pullups

Results: Metcon 6:20.

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.

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…
