Deadlifts, Kettlebell Swings, Weighted Dips and Pushups

Another CF Invictus inspired WOD which I improved on.

5 rounds of

  • 5-7 x Deadlift
  • Rest 30 seconds
  • 20 x Kettlebell Swings
  • Rest 1 minute
  • 5-7 x Weighted Dips @ 30lbs
  • Rest 30 seconds
  • 10-15 x Plyometric Pushups
  • Rest 2 minutes

Cash out with 200 Double Unders for time.

Results:  For the Deadlifts, started with 205lbs/93kg for rounds 1 – 3 then increased to 220lbs/100kg for the last 2 rounds.  Completed all 7 reps of Deadlifts and Dips in each round.  Had to drop to 12 Pushups in the 3rd round.  Completed the Double Unders in 4:44.

Strict Press then Man Makers, Double Unders. Deadlifts and Burpees

Spend 20 minutes working up to a heavy

  • 3 x Strict Press

Then AMRAP in 7 minutes of

  • 7 x Man Makers @ 12kg
  • 35 x Double Unders

Then AMRAP in 7 minutes of

  • 7 x Deadlifts @ 165lbs
  • 7 x Burpees

Results:  135lbs/61kg for the strict press.  For the metcons, 3 rounds plus 5 reps and 5 rounds plus 6 reps respectively.

Bodyweight 6 Ways

Every 2 minutes for 6 minutes (three sets) do

  • 6-8 x Bench Press @ Bodyweight (currently 165lbx/75kg)
  • 6-8 x Strict Pull ups

Then every 2 minutes for 6 minutes do

  • 6-8 x Back Squat@ Bodyweight
  • 6-8 x Strict Toes to Bar

Then every 2 minutes for 6 minutes do

  • 6-8 x Deadlift @ Bodyweight
  • 6-8 x Dips

Between each round take 8-10 minutes to setup for the next set and to warm up for the lift (Bench Press, Back Squat, Deadlift). Warmed up for each of the lifts with 5 rounds of 5 reps of increasing weight to get up to the working weight.

Results:  Did all 8 reps for each set, except in the first round, so could have gone up with the weight for the Back Squats and Deadlifts. Nice workout after the killer workout from last weekend :-).

Double Unders, Dumbbell Deadlift, Dumbbell Front Squat and Handstand Pushups

Crossfit mainsite WOD from 2013….

For time do

  • 100 Double Unders

Then 5 rounds of

  • 10 x Dumbbell Deadlifts @ 20kg per hand
  • 10 x Dumbbell Front Squats @ 20kg per hand
  • 10 x Handstand Pushups

Then

  • 100 Double Unders

Results:   17:45. Good shoulder workout.  20kg Dumbbells are a lot harder than a 40kg bar (would have probably finished in half the time)!
