Front Squats, Dips abd T2B then DUs and V-Ups

EMOM for 20 minutes of:

  • Odd Minute:  3 x Front Squats @ 50kg + 5 x Dips
  • Even Minute: 5 x Strict Toes to Bar + 5 x Dips

Then AMRAP in 8 minutes of:

  • 40 x Double Unders
  • 10 x V-Ups

Results:  Did the front squats starting on the floor, so had to clean it first.  For AMRAP – 6 rounds plus 40 DU and 4 V-Ups.

T2B then Press, Pullups, Row and Snatch

Part A:  Take 15 minutes and practice kipping Toes to Bar.

Part B: Every 4 minutes for 4 sets (16 minutes):

  • 5 x Strict Press with successively heavy weights
  • Max Reps Unbroken Kipping Pullups

Part C:  EMOM for 20 minutes (another CFI workout).

  • Even Minute: Row for 30 Seconds for distance
  • Odd Minute:  3 x Power Snatch @ 35Kg

Results:  Part A – Finally got the kipping T2B down.  Was able to do 10 unbroken without pausing between. Still a bit inefficient with the kip, since it is still a big movement, but at least now they are quick.  Part B – 5 x 50kg, 5 x 52.5kg, 3 x 55kg, 3 x 55kg and total 37 (8-10-8-11) pullups.  Part C – Distances rowed – 150,149,137,157,150,150,151,150,140,147 – 1’481m total.

Racked Reverse Lunges and Handstand Pushups

Tried to do the Crossfit Invictus workout from October 7, but misread it and then thought I needed to modified it because it was not working, which made it even harder (IMHO).  My modified version is:

Every 3 minutes for 30 minutes (10 sets) do the following:

  • First 2 minutes, 8 x Reverse Lunges each leg with Bar in Front Rack Position @ 45 kg
  • Third minute, 60 seconds Strict Handstand Pushups for Max Reps

Results:  Ended up doing a lot of reverse lunges (80 per leg) plus 51 HSPU (10-5-3-8-5-5-5-5-5-5).

Dumbbell Presses and T2B followed by Pullups, Dips and Squats

Part A:  Three rounds of the following sets, rest 2 minutes between sets.

  • 10 x Single Dumbbell Press Alternating Sides (5 per side) @ 20kg
  • 10 x Strict Toes to Bar

Part B:  The do 5 Rounds for time of:

  • 5 x Pullups
  • 10 x Dips
  • 15 x Goblet Squats @ 24kg

Result:  Part B took 14:26
