Then do Jackie:

  • 50 x Thrusters @ 20kg
  • 30 x Pullups

Results:  125kg was a new 1RM.  Not far from my goal of 2 x BW.  For Jackie:  9:52. In April 2014 did it in 9:58.

Pyramid Scheme from ACF

Inspired by Atomic Crossfit’s workout of the same name.  For time complete one round of the following (time cap of 20 minutes):

  • 10 x Hanging Cleans @ 43kg
  • 20 x Dips
  • 30 x KB Swings @ 24kg
  • 40 x Push Ups
  • 50 x Double Unders
  • 40 x Push Ups
  • 30 x KB Swings
  • 20 x Dips
  • 10 x Hanging Cleans @ 43kg

Then set tabata timer to 30 seconds work / 30 seconds rest for 8 rounds and alternate each round:

  • Hollow Hold
  • Superman Hold

Results:  The metcon took 12:11, even though I think I accidently did 40 KB swings in the first round…

  • 30 x Kettlebell Swings
  • 30 x Box Jumps
  • 30 x Double Unders
  • 30 x Push Press

Results:  New PR for Deadlifts.  For the metcon we all finished between 11:20 and 12:20.

Handstand Work plus Double Unders, Snatches and Burpees

Practice Plate Walks

Then every 2 minutes on the minute for 5 rounds hold handstand for 30 seconds

Then for time do 5 rounds of:

  • 50 x Doubleunders
  • 10 x Dumbell Snatches Right Hand
  • 10 x Dumbell Snatches Left Hand
  • 10 x Burpees

Result:  Best I could manage was 2 sets at a time twice (one set is step up left / step up right / step down left / step down right).  For the hold, started with belly to the wall, then switched to back to the wall.  I think it would be good to also practice dismounts so I don’t have to down the wall at the end after the long hold.  For the Metcon:  15:51, HR ave=160 / max=171
