Not for time 3 rounds of:

Then AMRAP in 10 minutes of (inspired by Crossfit Invictus WOD from 8. December):

  • 5 x Toes to bar
  • 10 x Sandbag Thrusters @ 15kg
  • 15 x Pushups

Result:   No problems with the TGUs.   Next time 18kg.  AMRAP: 6 rounds.  I originally planned for the pushups in the AMRAP to be TRX Pushups (CFI calls for Ring Dips)  but they were too hard and so I had to switch to normal pushups.  Something new to work on.   Even dips would have been challenging after the TGUs and Thrusters.

Comments Off on T-Getups, Empower WOD plus L-Sit Hold

A. Turkish Getups with Dumbell

3-3-3 – do 3 on one side then 3 on the other side for one round

B. Then “Empower” WOD… Complete as many rounds and reps as possible in 14 minutes of:

  • 9 x Burpees
  • 20 x Kettlebell Swings
  • 20 x Air Squats

C: Then EMOM for 5 minutes hold L-Sit for 15 seconds

Result:  Part A:  10kg/14kg/16kg;  Part B:  6 rounds (54 burpees, 120 Kettlebell Swings, 120 Air Squats); Part C: L-Sit very improved over last week.  Next week can up the first two rounds to 20 seconds.

A. Overhead Squats

5-5-5 @ 35kg

Then

B. Complete as many rounds as possible in 12 minutes of:

  • 5 x Handstand Pushups
  • 10 x Deadlifts @ 50kg
  • 15 x Situps

Then

C. EMOM for 5 minutes hold L-Sit for 15 seconds

Result:  For part B, ended up with 6 rounds (I think, may have been 7).  It might have been better to replace the deadlifts with 24 – 28kg sumo deadlift highpulls with a kettlebell to get a more intense metcon out of it.

Comments Off on Weighted Pullups & Dips then T2B and Burpees

Perform 4 rounds of:

  • 5 x Weighted Pullups with Hammer Grip @ 15kg
  • Rest 60-90 seconds
  • 5 x Weighted Dips @ 25kg
  • Rest 60-90 seconds

Alternating 1 minute work and 1 minute rest perform 8 rounds for max reps Burpees.  So perform both exercises for the first minute, rest for the second minute, repeat for 8 rounds.

  • 8 x Toes to Bar
  • Max reps Burpees

Results:   Pleasantly surprised at how well the dips and pullups went.  Completed full rounds of each.  In part 2 completd 81 Burpees.  Could really feel the abs working on around the 5th toes to bar set, had to make two tries to get the very last T2B rep in.
