Every 2 minutes for 12 minutes work up to a heavy single – Weighted Pullup

  • Set 1 – 3 reps
  • Set 2 – 2 reps
  • Set 3 – 2 reps
  • Set 4 – 1 rep

Then inspired by the CF Invictus WOD from July 24.

  • 20 x Toes to Bar
  • 30 x Kettlebell Overhead Reverse Lunge @ 14kg per Hand

For the reverse lunges, use two Kettlebells.

Results: Since I didn’t know my 1 RM for a weighted Pullup so played it by ear. 30-35-40-42.5-45-47.5lbs/21kg. Probably could have gone heavier. Metcon 15:04.
