Not for time do 5 rounds of:

  • 5 x Racked Split Squats @ 40kg

For time complete the following while EMOM doing 5 Bar Hop Burpees (inspired by Atomic Crossfit’s Family is Forever).

  • 25 x Sumo Deadlift Highpull (30kg)
    10 x Plate Pushups
    20 x SDLHP
    15 x Plate Pushups
    15 x SDLHP
    20 x Plate Pushups
    10 x SDLHP
    25 x Plate Pushups

Results:  AMRAP took 13:54 (that was 65 burpees!).  HR max = 174 / ave = 165.  This was amazingly hard.  Maybe because on Atomic Crossfit they only had 3 burpees and I messed up and did 5.

Not for time, perform the following:

  • 5 x Front Squats @ 40kg
  • 5 x FS @ 50kg
  • 5 x FS @ 53kg
  • 5 x FS @ 60kg
  • 5 x FS @ 63kg

Then, for time do 1 round of:

  • 21 x Burpees
  • 15 x Thrusters @ 43kg
  • 9 x Strict Pullups
  • 200 x Double Unders
  • 9 x Strict Pullups
  • 15 x Thrusters
  • 21 x Burpees

Results:  Front Squats went so well, tried to make 68kg (bodyweight) but was unable to clean that weight at the end of the round.  For the Metcon 14:58 HR max = 175 / ave = 165. Brutal, thrusters suck on the wrists (funny that the front squats above did not).  Graph below is interesting… long plateau in the middle must be the double unders and the plateau at the end the final 21 burpees.
