Crossfit Games Workout 15.3

Since the scaled version  Crossfit came up with for this workout was too lame and we actually wanted a workout, we scaled this workout ourselves…

Rx Verion is to perform AMRAP in 14 minutes of:

  • 7 x Muscle Ups
  • 50 x Wall Balls
  • 100 x Double Unders

A better scaled version is to perform AMRAP in 14 minutes of:

  • 7 x Strict Pullups
  • 7 x Ring Dips
  • 50 x Wall Balls
  • 100 x Double Unders

Results:  I did a slightly modified version of the Rx Version… Bar Muscle Ups instead of Ring Muscle Ups.  Still was able to do 2 Rounds plus 3 Muscle Ups (317 reps).

Deadlifts and Jackie

Not for time do the following 9 sets of Deadlifts.  Rest as needed between sets.

  • 5 x 60kg
  • 5 x 90kg
  • 3 x 110kg
  • 3 x 110kg
  • 2 x 120kg
  • 2 x 120kg
  • 1 x 125kg
  • 1 x 125kg
  • 5 x 110kg

Then do Jackie:

  • Row 1000m
  • 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.
