Comments Off on Run, Overhead Lunges and V-Ups

Travelling this week, so this short Streetparking WOD which was posted on Instagram was a good choice.  I modified it slightly since I didn’t have any rope to do Double Unders (Rx had 100 DUs instead of the run).

For time 

  • Run 400m/0.25mi
  • 50 x Single Arm Overhead Dumbbell Reverse Lunges (25 right arm overhead /25 left arm overhead) @ 35lbs
  • 50 x V-Ups (or Toes to Bar if you have a bar)
  • 50 x Single Arm Overhead Dumbbell Reverse Lunges
  • Run 400m

Results:  13:24.

5 rounds of

  • 1 x Hang Power Clean
  • 1 x Strict Press
  • 1 x Front Squat
  • 1 x Strict Press
  • 1 x Hang Squat Clean
  • 1 x Push Press

Increase weight per round.

Then Jackie

  • Row 1000m
  • 50 x Thrusters @ 45lbs
  • 50 x Pullups (Rx is 30)

Results:  Complex 95-105-115-125-130lbs.  Jackie 12:27.  Don’t know why I did 50 pullups, number is just stuck in my mind.  12:27 is not bad for the full 1k on my rower and the extra pullups, compared to Dec 15, 2017.

Work up to a heavy couplet.

Then take 5 minutes and work on Squat Snatches/Snatch Balance.

Then for time 15-12-9 of

  • Power Snatch/Overhead Squats @ 75lbs
  • Toes to Bar

Results:  Power Snatch and OHS went well, got to 95lbs.  Squat Snatches and Snatch Balance were also OK but still need work, used an empty bar.  Was able to do one Squat Snatch at 75lbs.  Metcon 9:36.
