Cleans and Dips then Deadlifts

I took the first part from CF Invictus.  The idea is to do each clean in the set as an individual movement so that you can put the bar down, reset and then do the next for a total of 4.  This way you can concentrate on form and maybe higher weights than if you did it without rest between the reps.  Increase weights per set.

Every 4 minutes, for 20 minutes (5 sets) of:

  • 1.1.1.1 x Power Clean (rest 10 seconds between each single)
  • Rest 30 seconds
  • Strict Dips x max reps

Then not for time do 5 sets of desdlifts with the following reps per set

  • Set 1 – 5
  • Set 2 – 5
  • Set 3 – 5
  • Set 4 – 5
  • Set 5 – 3

Results:  Disappointed with the cleans since I only got up to 155lbs/70kg.  For the Deadlifts got up to 275lbs/125kg for the last set (all the weight I have right now).

Handstand work then a 30/30 Circuit

Spend 20 minutes working on handstands.

Then do AMRAP working in a 30/30 circuit for 18 minutes (3 rounds) of:

  • 15 x TRX Atomic Pushups
  • 15 x TRX Reverse Rows
  • 15 x Toes to Bar
  • 15 x Man Makers @ 10kg
  • 15 x Deadlifts
  • 15 x KB Swings

Results:  Tripod tuck up worked OK.  Kickup to Handstand as shown did not work as well as I thought.  Needs more work probably.  Total of 222 reps for the metcon.

So, following on to my last post, as a second workout, to keep in shape while on vacation here is the lower body version.  Could also swap Back Squats for Deadlifts.

Not for time do 3 rounds of Deadlift with the following rep scheme:

  • 5 x @ 185lbs/85kg
  • 3 x @ 205lbs/93kg
  • Max Reps @ 225lbs/102kg

Then for time do:

  • Row 2k
  • 50 x Box Jumps
  • 50 x Kettlebell Swings @ 24kg
  • 50 x Air Squats

Results:   For the max reps DL did 6 reps. Metcon in 17:00 (50 Air Squats are way easier than 50 pushups)
