Every 2 minutes for 6 minutes (three sets) do

  • 6-8 x Bench Press @ Bodyweight (currently 165lbx/75kg)
  • 6-8 x Strict Pull ups

Then every 2 minutes for 6 minutes do

  • 6-8 x Back Squat@ Bodyweight
  • 6-8 x Strict Toes to Bar

Then every 2 minutes for 6 minutes do

  • 6-8 x Deadlift @ Bodyweight
  • 6-8 x Dips

Between each round take 8-10 minutes to setup for the next set and to warm up for the lift (Bench Press, Back Squat, Deadlift). Warmed up for each of the lifts with 5 rounds of 5 reps of increasing weight to get up to the working weight.

Results:  Did all 8 reps for each set, except in the first round, so could have gone up with the weight for the Back Squats and Deadlifts. Nice workout after the killer workout from last weekend :-).

Following the programming from CF Invictus this week with some slight modifications.

Five sets of:

  • 3 x Bench Press
  • Rest 30 seconds
  • 8 x Strict Toes to Bar
  • Rest 2 minutes

Then do 3 rounds for time of:

  • Run 400m
  • 40 x Push Ups
  • 40 x Air Squats

Then do one 15 sec work/45 sec rest L-Sit tabata.

Results:  For the Bench Press did 155/170/185/195/200lbs.  Got interrupted for the metcon so only ended up doing 2 rounds in 8:48.  For the L-Sit finished the last 3 tabata sets with bent knees , I thought that was better than drooping legs.
