Classic Clean, Press, Burpee Workout

AMRAP in 20 minutes of:

  • 5 x Power Clean @ 43kg
  • 5 x Push Press @ 43kg
  • 5 x Burpees

Results: I’ve done this workout twice before back in 2014 (11 sets plus 10 reps and 14 sets plus 10 reps) but those times used only 40kg and did some strength work before.  This time as shown above did exactly 15 sets (pushed hard to get the last 5 burpees).

Deadlifts then “Christine”

Not for time do 6 sets of deadlifts increasing weight each set

  • Set 1 – x 5 reps
  • Set 2 – x 5 reps
  • Set 3 – x 3 reps
  • Set 4 – x 3 reps
  • Set 5 – x 2 reps
  • Set 6 – x 2 reps @ 80% of max

Rest as needed between sets.

Then do “Christine” three rounds for time of:

  • Row 500 Meters
  • 12 Deadlifts @ Bodyweight
  • 21 Box Jumps

Results:  80% is 240lbs/110kg so stopped there.  Bodyweight is around 72kg.  Did the metcon in 13:58.

Front Squats, Handstand Hold, L-Sits then Push Presses, Lunges and Burpees

Every 2 minutes for 18 minutes do

  • 6 – 8 x Front Squat @ 75% of max
  • 30 Second Handstand Hold
  • 15 Second L-Sit (accumulated)

Then do AMRAP in 10 minutes of

  • 10 x Push Presses (65lbs)
  • 10 x Alternating Overhead Reverse Lunges (65lbs)
  • 10 x Burpees Over the Barbell

Results:  I was only able to do the first part because I was interrupted. For the front squats, my max was 200lbs so used 150lbst.

Power Cleans and Double Unders

I have been relying on CrossFit Invictus for WODs lately.  Here is another one which seemed to fit well into my routine.

Take 15-20 minutes to build to today’s 1-RM Power Clean.

Then for time:

  • 10 x Power Cleans
  • 100 x Double-Unders
  • 8 x Power Cleans
  • 80 x Double-Unders
  • 6 x Power Cleans
  • 60 x Double-Unders
  • 4 x Power Cleans
  • 40 x Double-Unders
  • 2 x Power Cleans
  • 20 x Double-Unders

Results:  For the 1RM got up to 170lbs/77kg (5 x 65lbs, 5 x 95, 5 x 115, 3 x 135, 3 x 155, 1 x 165, 1 x 170).  For the metcon, used 135lbs/61kg and finished in 12:53.
