After a general warm up, begin with 3 rounds of the the following complex, start with an empty/light bar and increase weight per round.

  • 1 x Deadlift
  • 1 x Hang Clean
  • 1 x Strict Press
  • 1 x Back Squat
  • Repeat for a total of 3 consecutive sets

Then for the main WOD, the goal is to cycle through the three exercises to reach a 1RM of each.  Start each round fairly heavy so that for the 3 singles you are already close to the 1RM.  Every 2 minutes for 34 minutes (10 minutes per exercise)… 

  • 3 x Back Squat
  • 2 x Back Squat
  • 1 x Back Squat
  • 1 x Back Squat
  • 1 x Back Squat
  • Rest 2 minutes,  reset weights
  • 3 x Strict Press
  • 2 x Strict Press
  • 1 x Strict Press
  • 1 x Strict Press
  • 1 x Strict Press
  • Rest 2 minutes, reset weights
  • 3 x Deadlift
  • 2 x Deadlift
  • 1 x Deadlift
  • 1 x Deadlift
  • 1 x Deadlift

Results:  Back Squats 135-165-185-215-230lbs.  Strict Press 115-135-145-155 (failed)-150(failed).  Deadlift 185-225-255-275-295lbs.

3 rounds for time

  • 15 x Strict Toes to Bar
  • 40 x Air Squats
  • 20 x Pushups
  • 250m Row (I did 10cal on my rower since it doesn’t do meters)
  • 20 x Situps
  • 15 x Burpee

Results:  22:51.  Nice 20 minute or so cardio workout when time is limited.  Based on a workout from Atomic Crossfit: Temple of your Dreams. Same idea but 4 RFT and Pullups, not strict T2B so if you have the time, throw in another round.

Taken from CF Invictus’ Get a Grip partner WOD.

For time do 50 rounds of the following complex

  • 1 x Deadlift @ 95lbs
  • 1 x Squat Clean @ 95lbs
  • 1 x Front Squat @ 95lbs
  • 1 x Push Press @ 95lbs

Every time you put the bar down (longer than a touch and go), run 400m.

Results:  34:29.  Broke it for the most part into 5 rounds between runs (7-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-4-4), so came to around 3600m total run.

Do 9 sets of Back Squats resting 2-3 minutes between sets, with the following rep scheme for max unbroken reps in set 9:

  • Set 5 – 2 reps
  • Set 6 – 2 reps
  • Set 7 – 1 rep

  • Set 9 – Max Unbroken Reps @ bodyweight (one full breathing cycle at the top of the lift – exhale, inhale, brace and descend – once more rest is taken at the top, the set is over)

Results:  115-135-155-185-205-225-235-240lbs/109kg (new 1RM!).  For the last set 10 reps @ 165lbs.
