Inspired by Regionals Event 2 (Linda), but since I only have one bar modified it to be more of a strength workout.

For time do the following (time cap 10 minutes)

  • 10-8-6-4-2 x Deadlifts @ 185lbs
  • 20-16-12-8-4 x Dynamic Plate Pushups

Take 2 minutes to move weights, then for time do (time cap 10 minutes)

  • 10-8-6-4-2 x Bench Press @ 155lbs
  • 14-10-8-4-2 x  Dumbbell Squat Cleans @ 10kg per hand

Take 2 minutes to move weights, then for time do (time cap 10 minutes)

  • 10-8-6-4-2 x Squat Cleans @ 125lbs
  • 20-16-12-8-4 x Kettlebell Swings @ 24kg (total)

Results:  Had a lot of issues with the original version of the WOD so adapted it to work better.  Above is the modified version, below is the original.  With the original, the first part worked well, the second and third parts were too hard and I couldn’t finish even the first round in the 2 minutes, so switching to a time cap made it better.  For the last round finished in 9:19.

  • 10-8-6-4-2 x Bench Press @ 155lbs
  • 20-16-12-8-4 x  Dumbbell Squat Cleans @ 14kg per hand

Take 2 minutes to move weights, then E2MOM for 10 minutes

  • 10-8-6-4-2 x Squat Cleans @ 125lbs
  • 20-16-12-8-4 x Kettlebell Swings @ 24kg (total)

Take 15-20 minutes and work up to a heavy

  • 3 x Back Squats

Took the next part from CF New England WOD from April 3, 2018.

AMRAP in 4 minutes of

  • 7 Cal Row
  • 21 x Toes to Bar
  • 21 x Front Squats @ 95lbs

Rest 4 minutes then AMRAP in 4 minutes of

  • 7 Cal Row
  • 15 x T2B
  • 15 x Front Squats @  115lbs

Rest 4 minutes then AMRAP in 4 minutes of

  • 7 Cal Row
  • 9 x T2B
  • 9 x Front Squats @ 135lbs

Results:  For the Back Squats got up to 205lbs/93kg.  For the rowing part I picked a target which I can do in around 1 minute even though the real WOD used 21, 15 and 9 calories for each (not sure how you fit that into 4 minutes unless the goal is not to complete the first round).  Using my version I ended up with, 1 round plus 3 calories, 1 round plus 3.5 calories, 1 round plus 6 calories.
