Then for total reps, 3 rounds of 1 min on/1 min off…

  • 1 minute Goblet Squats @ 24kg
  • Rest 1 minute
  • 1 minute Kettlebell Swings @ 24kg
  • Rest 1 minute

Crossfit Open WOD 23.1

This is a slightly modified version of the Mens base WOD. AMRAP in 14 minutes of

  • 60 Calorie Row
  • 50 x Toes to Bar
  • 40 x Sandbag Thrusters @ 20kg (Rx is Wall Balls @ 10kg)
  • 30 x Clean @ 135lbs
  • 20 x Pullups (Rx is Muscle Ups)

Results: At 14 minutes 161 reps (got to 11 Cleans). Continued and finished whole WOD in 21:20. Nice one. The weight above is for the normal men, which is what I used. Noticed later that for the 55-59 age group the Rx weight is only 115lbs. Maybe another time I’ll try the lighter weight and include Muscle Ups.

Results: 8 rounds plus 44 reps. Had to reduce the weight on the lunges to 24kg after round 6 since my hands were too sweaty and I was feeling like I was going to drop the 32kg KB.
