HSPU, DL, Ring Dips, Power Cleans, Pullups and Thrusters

Crossfit Mainsite WOD from Feb 8…For time (time cap 20 minutes)

  • 30 x Handstand Pushups
  • 30 x Deadlifts @ 185lbs/85kg
  • 30 x Ring Dips
  • 30 x Power Cleans @ 120lbs/55kg
  • 30 x Pullups
  • 30 x Thrusters @ 65lbs/30kg

Results: Completed only 3 Thrusters at the time cap. Guidance says you should be able to complete this WOD in under 15 minutes, so I guess my scaling was too heavy (had only completed 27 Power Cleans at 15 minutes)… should have gone with the women’s Rx weights…155-95-65lbs (70-43-30kg). Maybe next time.
