  • Accumulate up to 3 minutes Superman

Then for time:

Taken from two different Crossfit Invictus WODs.

Part A – Every 2 minutes for 20 minutes

  • 1-3 x Snatch Lift Off + Snatch

Build over the course of the 10 sets to something heavy. A Snatch Lift-Off is the first portion of the snatch, from the ground to the knees. Keep your torso angle consistent through all phases of this lift-off, and pause 2-seconds at the knees each lift-off. After your lift-off, reset and perform a full snatch.

Part B – Then AMRAP in 5 minutes of

  • 15 x Snatch
  • 5 x Burpees over the Barbell

Part C – Rest 5 minutes then AMRAP in 5 minutes of

  • 150m Row
  • 15 x Kettlebell Swings

Results:  For part A got up to 115lbs.  Reps per round 3,3,3,3,3,3,2,2,1,1.  For the two AMRAPS – part B 2 rounds plus 10 Snatches and part C 3 rounds plus 150m Row.
