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.

Deadlift plus Presses

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.

CF Invictus WOD from 4 Sept. Modified

Dumbbell Lunge

3 x 20 @ 18kg per hand

Rest 1 minutes

Complete as many rounds as possible in 5 minutes of:

  • 20 x Double-Unders
  • 10 x Squats

Rest 1 minute

Complete as many rounds as possible in 5 minutes of:

  • 5 x Man-Makers @ 10kg per hand
  • 10 x Burpees

Rest 1 minute

Complete as many rounds as possible in 5 minutes of:

  • 5 x Toes to Bar
  • 10 x Push-Ups

Result:  Double unders still suck.  Set 1:  3 + 19  /  Set 2: 3  /  Set 3: 6

Note to self: Subbing Burpees for the Box Jumps in set 2 was dumb since a man maker is basically a burpee on steroids.

Crossfit Team Series 2014 Event 4

Deadlift

  • 5 @ 50kg
  • 5 @ 70kb
  • 5 @ 90kg
  • 3-3-3 @ 110kg

Event 4 of the team series was for each member of the team to complete the following for time:

  • 30-calorie Row
  • 30 Burpees
  • 30 Hang Cleans @ 48kg (scaled weight)

Result: Achieved a new PR for Deadlifts 110kg (242lbs).  For the Team Series Event it took about 8 minutes which was in line with the times I saw to not too bad.

Weighted Pullups and Dips plus Metcon

Weighted Pullups

3-3-3-3-3 @ 15kg

Weighted Dips

3-3-3-3-3 @ 25kg

Perform AMRAP in 12 minutes of:

  • 10 x Sandbag Thrusters @ 15kg
  • 5 x Toes to Bar
  • 10 x Burpees
  • 5 x Handstand Pushups

Result:  Weighted dips and pullups went really well.  Metcon:  5 rounds.  I threw in an additional 10 T2B at the end since 5 per round did not seem to be doing it. Alternative distribution of reps would be 12-9-6-3 instead of the 10-5-10-5.
