Double Unders, Clean and Jerk, then AMRAP of HS Pushups, G2OH and Step Ups

I have decided to add a single exercise section to one or two workouts per week for high volume tasks so we can work on stamina.  I noticed that if I don’t do high volume  double unders, rowing, kettlebell swings, kipping pullups, etc. for a couple of weeks I really have problems during workouts.  Will also help to work on form when you can focus on just the one exercise.

Part A: For highest set of unbroken reps do 3 rounds of:

  • 100 x Double Unders
  • Rest 60 seconds

Part B: Then do 3 rounds of

  • 1.1.1.1.1 x Clean and Jerk @ 80% of strict press max (rest 10 seconds between reps)

Part C: Then do AMRAP in 15 minutes of

  • 5 x Handstand Pushups
  • 10 x Sandbag (30lbs/15kg) Ground to Overhead
  • 5 x Box Step Ups with Sandbag (30lbs/15kg)on Left Shoulder
  • 5 x Box Step Ups with Sandbag (30lbs/15kg)on Right Shoulder

Results:  Part A got 100 unbroken in the second round :).   For part B used 115lbs/52kg which was not too heavy and was good for practicing form.  For part C did 6 rounds plus 16 reps.
