Lower Body Vacation Workout

So, following on to my last post, as a second workout, to keep in shape while on vacation here is the lower body version.  Could also swap Back Squats for Deadlifts.

Not for time do 3 rounds of Deadlift with the following rep scheme:

  • 5 x @ 185lbs/85kg
  • 3 x @ 205lbs/93kg
  • Max Reps @ 225lbs/102kg

Then for time do:

  • Row 2k
  • 50 x Box Jumps
  • 50 x Kettlebell Swings @ 24kg
  • 50 x Air Squats

Results:   For the max reps DL did 6 reps. Metcon in 17:00 (50 Air Squats are way easier than 50 pushups)

Back Squats, then KB Swings, Burpees, Rowing and BJ Overs

Taken from Crossfit321 in Brunswick, ME.

Every 2 minutes for 10 minutes (5 rounds), do:

5 x Back Squats @ 185lbs / 85kg

Then for time do 21-15-9 of:

  • Kettle Bell Swings @ 24kg
  • Burpees

Rest 5 minutes, then for time do 21-15-9 of:

  • Row for Calories
  • Box Jump-overs 24/20

Results:  For the first part 3:51, for the second part 5:31.

Deadlifts then an AMRAP

Part A: Not for time do Deadlifts with the following rep scheme, scale weight as appropriate:

  • 5 x @ 135lbs
  • 5 x @ 185lbs/84kg
  • 5 x @ 235lbs
  • 3 x @ 285lbs
  • 2 x @ 295lbs
  • 1 x @ 300lbs/136kg
  • 1 x @ 300lbs
  • 10 x @ 185lbs

Part B: First do AMRAP in 4 mins, rest 3 minutes, then do AMRAP in 6 minutes, rest 3 minutes, then do the complete set for time (taken from Atomic Crossfit’s When Pigs Fly):

  • 100 x DUs
