Deadlifts, Pushups, Lunges and OH Press

Looks like an interesting workout from CF Invictus …

Every 2 minutes for 40 minutes rotate through the 4 stations (5 rounds of each station). Do all rounds (except at station 2) unbroken and maintain a steady pace to complete all reps in 30 seconds.

  • Station 1 – 6 – 8 x Deadlift
  • Station 2 – Max Pushups in 60 seconds
  • Station 3 – 20 x Alternating Reverse Lunge (total) with Kettlebell in Goblet Hold
  • Station 4 – 6 – 8 x Dumbbell Overhead Press

For station 1 and 4, increase weights each round if you can do all 8 reps

Results: 1.  135/155/170/185/205lbs (updated on Nov17 since my original entries were wrong)  2. 43/33/32/31/28 reps  4.  14/16/18/18/18kg  Next time start at a higher Deadlift weight since even at 205lbs was able to complete the 8.

Kettlebell Swings and HSPU, then BJs and T2B, then Burpees and Reverse Rows

Against running 12 minute clock, for time, do the following ladders

  • 10-15-20-25-30 x Kettlebell Swings
  • 15-12-9-6-3 x Handstand Pushups

Rest with whatever time is left in the 12 minutes, then start another 12 minute clock and do

  • 10-15-20-25-30 x Box Jumps
  • 15-12-9-6-3 x Toes to Bar

Rest with whatever time is left in the 12 minutes, then start another 12 minute clock and do

  • 10-15-20-25-30 x Burpees
  • 15-12-9-6-3 x TRX Reverse Rows (feet on a bench/box)

Results:  The last two rounds of 25 and 30 Burpees were really hard, I was running on empty by that point. For the first set finished in 9:20, second set 8:55, third set 11:21.

Then run 5k
