Bench Press then Dips, Push Press and Burpees

I was looking to do Bench Presses and found this as today’s WOD on CF Invictus.

Every 3 minutes, for 18 minutes (6 sets) do Bench Press

  • Set 1 – 5 reps @ 80-85%
  • Set 2 – 3 reps @ 85-90%
  • Set 3 – 2 reps @ 90%
  • Set 4 – 3 reps @ 85-90%
  • Set 5 – 8 reps @ 75-80%
  • Set 6 – 8 reps @ 75-80%

The five rounds for time of:

  • 12 Ring Dips
  • 12 Push Presses @ 95lbs
  • 12 Burpees Over the Barbell

Results:  Bench Press 160-185-200-185-150-150lbs (1RM is around 205lbs). For the Metcon 18:40.

T2B, Squats, Pushups, Row, Situps and Burpees

3 rounds for time

  • 15 x Strict Toes to Bar
  • 40 x Air Squats
  • 20 x Pushups
  • 250m Row (I did 10cal on my rower since it doesn’t do meters)
  • 20 x Situps
  • 15 x Burpee

Results:  22:51.  Nice 20 minute or so cardio workout when time is limited.  Based on a workout from Atomic Crossfit: Temple of your Dreams. Same idea but 4 RFT and Pullups, not strict T2B so if you have the time, throw in another round.
