Started going to Crossfit Interlaken on Fridays when we have no plans to go anywhere. Today’s workout was…

5 rounds, increase weight per round for a 1RM…

  • 8-5-5-3-1 x Back Squat

Between each round 30 second Handstand Hold.

Then for time, the Ellen benchmark WOD.

  • 20 x Burpees
  • 20 x Alternating Dumbbell Snatches ( Rx is 21 but then one arm gets one extra Rep, so we modified)
  • 12 x Dumbbell Thrusters

Results: Got up to 105kg on the Back Squat. Used 17.5kg for Ellen (1 DB for the Snatch, 2 DBs for the Thruster) 11:45.
