Deadlifts and Strict Presses then SDHP, Power Cleans and Push Press

1 round to warm up of L-Sit Complex using low paralettes…

  • 10 second Seated Forward Fold (Yoga)
  • 10 x Pike Lifts with hands at knees
  • 10 x Pike Dips (Lift your butt)
  • 10 x Press to L-Sit (Lift you butt and legs)
  • 15 second Bent Knee L-Sit Hold (if possible extend legs before lowering)

Then accumulate 30 seconds, breaking as needed

  • L-Sit Hold

5 rounds of

  • 3 x Deficit Deadlift @ 1.6x Bodyweight from 10cm Step

Then, inspired by multiple WODs, AMRAP in 10 of

  • 20 x Hang Sumo Deadlift High Pull @ 85lbs
  • 20 x Hang Power Clean
  • 20 x Push Press

Results: Used 245lbs for the Deadlifts. Brpke L-Sit into 6 x 5 second rounds. Metcon 2 rounds. Serious arm pump.

Weighted Dips and Ring Rows then KB Swings, Overhead Press and Pullups

5 rounds of

  • 8 x Weighted Dips @ 10kg
  • 8 x Ring Rows

Then 2 sets of

  • Max Dips
  • Max Ring Rows (feet closer to rings than before)

Then AMRAP in 15 minutes

  • 9 x Dual Kettlebell Swings @ 14kg per hand
  • 12 x Kettlebell Overhead Press @ 14kg per hand
  • 15 x Kipping Pullups

Results: For the Ring Rows put my feet on a bench for the first part, on the floor for the second. Maxes were 15/10-15/11. Metcon 5 plus 22. Arms were done after this one.

G2OH, Reverse Lunge and Row

Continuing my quest for the 30 second L-Sit…3 rounds of L-Sit Complex using low paralettes (see this post from Coach Dan)…

  • 10 second Seated Forward Fold (Yoga)
  • 10 x Pike Lifts with hands at knees
  • 10 x Pike Dips (Lift your butt)
  • 10-15 second Bent Knee L-Sit Hold (if possible extend legs before lowering)

Then AMRAP in 20 minutes

  • 10 x Sandbag Ground to Overhead @ 20kg sandbag
  • 15 x Sandbag Reverse Lunge @ 20kg Left Leg step back/Sandbag on Right Shoulder
  • 15 x Sandbag Reverse Lunge @ 20kg Right Leg, Left Shoulder
  • 25 Calorie Row

Results: 4 rounds plus 25 reps. Try and start with your weaker leg for the lunges. That way, if you end up only getting half done, that leg gets the extra reps.

Overhead Press, Ring Pullups and Row

3 rounds of

  • 8 x Seated Dumbbell Press @ 16kg
  • 3 x Weighted Ring Pullups @ 10kg

4 rounds of AMRAP in 3 minutes, rest 2 minutes between rounds

  • Row 400m
  • 3 x Ring Pullups
  • 6 x Strict Press @ 65% of 3RM from last time
  • Max Effort Push Press

Results: Used 95lbs for the Presses. Metcon – Total Push Presses 23 reps (6-8-6-3).

Strict Lynne (again) then DB Snatch, Situps and Burpees

Lynne Benchmark WOD, as many reps as possible in 5 rounds of (rest as needed between movements and rounds)

  • Max Unbroken Body Weight Bench Press
  • Max Unbroken Strict Pullups

Then AMRAP in 13 minutes (Inspired by Danny memorial WOD which is AMRAP in 23 minutes)

  • 12 x Alternating Dumbbell Snatch @ 20kg
  • 10 x Burpees
  • 12 x Abmat Situps

Results: I prefer Strict Pullups but might be interesting to do high volume kippping next time and see how that goes. Used 165llbs for the Bench Press since that is what I used last time, eventhough body weight is more like 155lbs. 8/10-8/10-6/10-5/9-6/8…80 reps, so same as last time. Metcon 5 rounds plus 13 reps.
