Take 15 minutes to work on Pike lifts from a Parallel Bar with rounds in the following format

  • 3 x Pike Lift Left Leg
  • 3 x Pike Lift Right Leg
  • 3 x Pike Lift

Then, inspired by the Popey WOD from WodWell/BeauBlackwood on Instagram, 3 rounds without putting the Dumbbells down throughout each round… 21-15 9 reps of

  • Curls
  • Strict Press
  • Lateral Raises
  • Hammer Curls
  • Upright Rows
  • Push Press
  • Curls

Then one standard 4 minute Tabata (8 rounds, 20 sec work/ 10 sec rest)

  • Row

Results: Used my low 5cm parallel bars and could only do the single leg pike lifts. Had to sit on the floor for the normal pike lift. Metcon is way outside something I normally do, so used 8kg Dumbbells. Still was a struggle with those last reps. Tabata 50 Cal with damper at 6.

Every 2 minutes for 10 minutes work up to a heavy

  • 5 x Deadlift

Then every 3 minutes for 9 minutes

  • 10 x Deadlift @ 65-75%% from above

Then AMRAP in 12 minutes (modified version of Invictus Boston’s Partner WOD from 13.12.2020)

  • 10 Cal Row
  • 8 x Kettlebell Swings @ 32kg
  • 6 x Toes to Bar

Results: Focusing on form so kept Deadlifts to only 100kg/220lbs. Part 2 used 155lbs. AMRAP 6 rounds plus 1 rep. After this workout and yesterday’s pullups and dips my hands are in need of a break.

Have a new Concept2 rower 🙂 so had to find a WOD to use it. This one is aken from the Ladies Performance version of the “Math is Hard” CF New England WOD...

For time (time cap 30 minutes)

  • 21 x Front Squat @ 85lbs
  • 42 x Abmat Situps
  • 800m Row
  • 18 x Front Squat
  • 36 x Abmat Situps
  • 1600m Row
  • 15 x Front Squat

  • 2400m Row
  • 12 x Front Squat

Results: 54 FS, 108 Situps, 4340m Row (ended at 1940m in round of 2400). Not a and start, next time I need the timer in front of me to push me the last 250m or so… probably could have finished the 2400m round.
