Weighted Pullups and Dips then Toes to Bar, Snatches, Deadlifts and Burpees

Not for time do 5 sets of:

  • 3 x Weighted Pullups @ 15kg
  • 3 x Weighted Dips @ 15kg

Then do AMRAP in 7 minutes of:

  • 7 x Deadlift @ 185lbs
  • 7 x Burpees over the Barbell

Rest 3 minutes then do another AMRAP in 7 minutes of:

  • 7 x Dumbbell Snatch Right Hand
  • 7 x Dumbbell Snatch Left Hand
  • 7 x Toes to Bar

Results: For the first AMRAP did 4 rounds plus 6 reps. For the second did 5 rounds plus 2 reps.

Classic Clean, Press, Burpee Workout

AMRAP in 20 minutes of:

  • 5 x Power Clean @ 43kg
  • 5 x Push Press @ 43kg
  • 5 x Burpees

Results: I’ve done this workout twice before back in 2014 (11 sets plus 10 reps and 14 sets plus 10 reps) but those times used only 40kg and did some strength work before.  This time as shown above did exactly 15 sets (pushed hard to get the last 5 burpees).

Front Squats then Thrusters, Burpees and RRows

Not for time do 5 sets of:

  • 3 x Pause Front Squats (Stop for a 3 second pause at the bottom of the squat.  The idea is to focus on form at the bottom; elbows up, core tight.)

Increase weight each round working up to the weight for the next part (so don’t try and get to a 3 rep max).

Then two sets of the following, rest 3 minutes between sets:

  • 8 x Front Squats @ final weight from above

Then do AMRAP in 12 minutes of:

  • 10 x Burpees over the Barbell
  • 15 x  Thrusters @ 75lbs
  • 20 x Renegade Rows @ 14kg

Results:  For the Front Squats did 65, 95, 115, 125, 135lbs.  For the AMRAP did 3 rounds plus 10 Burpees, 15  Thrusters, 10 RRows.   75lbs Thrusters is a killer weight, heavy enough to be hard but not too heavy that I couldn’t do the first round unbroken.

Front Squats, Handstand Hold, L-Sits then Push Presses, Lunges and Burpees

Every 2 minutes for 18 minutes do

  • 6 – 8 x Front Squat @ 75% of max
  • 30 Second Handstand Hold
  • 15 Second L-Sit (accumulated)

Then do AMRAP in 10 minutes of

  • 10 x Push Presses (65lbs)
  • 10 x Alternating Overhead Reverse Lunges (65lbs)
  • 10 x Burpees Over the Barbell

Results:  I was only able to do the first part because I was interrupted. For the front squats, my max was 200lbs so used 150lbst.

Bench Press and Pullups then a Chipper

Every 2 minutes for 10 minutes

  • Minutes 0, 4, 8, 12, 16 – 5 x Bench Press @ 165lbs
  • Minutes 2, 6, 10, 14, 18 – Pullup Variations.. for example:  Minute 2 – 5 x Weighted Pullup, Minute 6 – Max Effort Chinup, Minute 10 – Max Effort Pullup, Minute 14 – 5 x Weighted Pullup, Minute 18 – Max Effort Pullup

Then for time do:

  • 30 Calorie Row
  • 30 x Ring Dips
  • 20 x Snatches @ 75lbs
  • 20 x Burpees
  • 10 x Front Squats @ 95lbs
  • 10 x Pull-ups & 10 x Hand-Release Push-ups

Results: For the metcon finished in 16:03.  I don’t think my new rower measures calories like a Concept2.  It took me around 4 minutes to complete the 30 calories which when comparing to other workouts is too long.
