Crossfit Open WOD 17.3 Revisited

The scaling is not exactly the same as the one on the Games site, used full pullups here instead of jumping pullups and lighter weights for the snatch and OHS.

Prior to 8:00, complete  3 rounds of:

  • 6 x Pullups
  • 6 x Power Snatch + Overhead Squat @ 45 lb

Then, 3 rounds of:

  • 7 x Pullups
  • 5 x Power Snatch + Overhead Squat @ 65 lb

Prior to 12:00, complete 3 rounds of

  • 8 x Pullups
  • 4 x Power Snatch + Overhead Squat @ 75 lb

Prior to 16:00, complete 3 rounds of:

  • 9 x Pullups
  • 3 x Power Snatch + Overhead Squat @ 95 lb

Prior to 20:00, complete 3 rounds of

  • 10 x Pullups
  • 2 x Power Snatch + Overhead Squat @ 115 lb

Prior to 24:00, complete 3 rounds of:

  • 11 x Pullups
  • 1 x Power Snatch + Overhead Squat @ 135 lb

Results:  Crushed it this time… 9 rounds plus 10 reps (118 reps/16 minutes). Last time finished 7 rounds + 9 reps (93 reps total/12 minutes).  My overhead squat has improved considerably and at 45lbs I can now do a squat snatch so that speeds things up.

Bench Press and Pullups then KBS and Ring Dips

Based on the CF Mainsite WOD from today…

Not for time do 5 rounds of

  • 10 x Dumbbell Bench Press
  • 5 x Strict L-Sit Pullup

Then for time

  • 50-40-30-20-10 x Kettlebell Swings @ 24kg
  • 21-18-15-12-9 x Ring Dips

Results:  Feels like a really good arm workout.  Used 21kg in each hand for the Bench Press. Metcon 13:44. 


Headstands, Handstands and Pullups then Burpees, Goblet Squats and Row

Take 10 minutes and work on press to headstand and kickup to handstand.  For the headstands, once up, hold for 10-15 seconds then slowly return feet to floor.  Focusing on controlling the press up and back down.  For handstands, kickup against a wall, work on full extension.

Then 3 rounds of

  • 3 – 5 x Strict Pullups
  • 10 x Kipping Pullups

Try to combine the two movements without dropping off the bar.

Then for time do 21-15-9 of

  • Goblet Squats @ 24kg
  • Burpees
  • Calorie Row

Results:  For Pullups did the first two rounds with 5 strict and 10 unbroken kipping, third and forth rounds with 4 strict but had to split the kipping into multiple sets.  For the metcon 13:29.
