Every 2 minutes do:

  • 3 x Weighted Pullups @ 15kg
  • 5 x Seated Dumbbell Press @ 16g per hand

Then do 21-15-9 of scaled “Elizabeth”:

  • Cleans @ 50kg (Rx is 60kg)
  • Dips (Rx is Ring Dips)

Cashout with 1 round of:

  • 3 x Wide Pronated Grip Pullups
  • 3 x Wide Supinated Grip Pullups
  • 3 x Narrow Pronated Grip Pullups
  • 3 x Narrow Supinated Grip Pullups

Results: Did metcon in 6:59 (Ave HR 163 / Max HR 174).  Since I think the normal time cap for these types of workouts is 7 minutes, my scaling was just perfect for me.  Lower the weight as needed to see if you can do it in under 7 ( if not finish anyway 🙂 ).

Then do AMRAP in 15 minutes of:

  • 10 x Thrusters @ 43kg
  • 10 x Burpees

Results: Did 3 TGU per side, 5 Rollouts and 5 Windmills per round.  First time doing Windmills.  Reached down the same side instead of crossing over with my free hand (easier version then shown in the video). We’ll see how my abs feel tomorrow before I can tell how good this one was.  For the AMRAP did 5 rounds plus 10 Thrusters and 7 Burpees.
