Clean and Push Press Benchmark

Front Squats

5-5-5-5-5 @ 40kg

20 Minute AMRAP

    • 5 x Hanging Cleans @ 40kg
    • 5 x Push Press @ 40Kg
    • 5 Burpees

Results:  A good benchmark workout which I did back in March.  The original post is here. At that time I was able to complete 11 sets plus 10 reps of the AMRAP.  Today I was able to do 14 sets plus 10 reps.  Of course with my March workout I combined it with handstand pushups which probably impacted how many push presses I could do.

Comments Off on Weighted Pullups & Dips then T2B and Burpees

Perform 4 rounds of:

  • 5 x Weighted Pullups with Hammer Grip @ 15kg
  • Rest 60-90 seconds
  • 5 x Weighted Dips @ 25kg
  • Rest 60-90 seconds

Alternating 1 minute work and 1 minute rest perform 8 rounds for max reps Burpees.  So perform both exercises for the first minute, rest for the second minute, repeat for 8 rounds.

  • 8 x Toes to Bar
  • Max reps Burpees

Results:   Pleasantly surprised at how well the dips and pullups went.  Completed full rounds of each.  In part 2 completd 81 Burpees.  Could really feel the abs working on around the 5th toes to bar set, had to make two tries to get the very last T2B rep in.

First part is copied from a CF Invictus WOD.

  • 15 x Deadlift @ 70kg
  • Rest 15-20 seconds
  • Handstand Push-Ups x Max Reps
  • Rest 2 minutes
  • 10 x Deadlift @ 70kg
  • Rest 15-20 seconds
  • Handstand Push-Ups x Max Reps
  • Rest 2 minutes
  • 5 x Deadlift @ 70kg
  • Rest 15-20 seconds
  • Handstand Push-Ups x Max Reps

Then do an AMRAP in 8 minutes of

  • 5 x Push Press @ 45kg
  • 5 x Burpees

Result:  Handstand Pushups – 14/10/8, Metcon:  8 rounds + 5 (total reps: 45 PP, 40 B).  Probably should go higher on the deadlifts since I felt I could have done more per round, but then that is all the weight I have at home.
