Split Squats and Thursters, T2B and Power Cleans

Every 3 minutes for 12 minutes (4 rounds)

  •  5 x Split Squats

Then for time per round do 4 rounds of (taken for CF Invictus WOD from Aug 17):

  • 20 x Sandbag Thrusters @ 30lbs (or Wallballs @ 20lbs/9kg)
  • 10 x Toes to Bar
  • 5 x Power Cleans @ 125lbs
  • Rest 2 minutes

Results:  Split Squats – 65/80/95/115lbs.  Metcon:  1:48/1:50/1:59/2:06

Deadlifts, Kettlebell Swings, Weighted Dips and Pushups

Another CF Invictus inspired WOD which I improved on.

5 rounds of

  • 5-7 x Deadlift
  • Rest 30 seconds
  • 20 x Kettlebell Swings
  • Rest 1 minute
  • 5-7 x Weighted Dips @ 30lbs
  • Rest 30 seconds
  • 10-15 x Plyometric Pushups
  • Rest 2 minutes

Cash out with 200 Double Unders for time.

Results:  For the Deadlifts, started with 205lbs/93kg for rounds 1 – 3 then increased to 220lbs/100kg for the last 2 rounds.  Completed all 7 reps of Deadlifts and Dips in each round.  Had to drop to 12 Pushups in the 3rd round.  Completed the Double Unders in 4:44.

Double Unders, Dumbbell Deadlift, Dumbbell Front Squat and Handstand Pushups

Crossfit mainsite WOD from 2013….

For time do

  • 100 Double Unders

Then 5 rounds of

  • 10 x Dumbbell Deadlifts @ 20kg per hand
  • 10 x Dumbbell Front Squats @ 20kg per hand
  • 10 x Handstand Pushups

Then

  • 100 Double Unders

Results:   17:45. Good shoulder workout.  20kg Dumbbells are a lot harder than a 40kg bar (would have probably finished in half the time)!

Split Squats then Pullups, Double Unders and Front Squats

Four sets of

  • 4-6 x Bulgarian Split Squat
  • Rest 3 minutes

Go heavy on these!

Then do three rounds for time of:

  • 15 x Pullups
  • 50 x Double Unders
  • 15 x Front Squats @ 95 lbs

Then, not for time do

  • 30 x Barbell Situps with empty bar

Results:  For the split squats did 65/95/105/115lbs.  Metcon in 9:47, probably the worst set of double unders I ever did.
