Four sets of

  • 75 x Kettlebell Swings @ 24kg

Cash in with Max effort Pushups (goal is to do 40 unbroken).

Inspired by Crossfit New England’s WOD from April 2, 2019.

AMRAP in 4 minutes

  • 15 Cal Row ( 21 on a ConceptII )
  • 15 x Power Clean @ 110lbs
  • 15 x Box Jump Overs

Rest 4 minutes then AMRAP in 4 minutes

  • 15 Cal Row
  • 15 x Power Clean @ 95lbs
  • 15 x Box Jump Overs

Rest 4 minutes then AMRAP in 4 minutes

  • 15 Cal Row
  • 15 x Power Clean @ 75lbs
  • 15 x Box Jump Overs

Then 3 rounds

  • 5 x Weighted Dips @ 30lbs

Results:  Cashed in with 50 unbroken pushups.  For the Metcon, it was partly a fail since I couldn’t finish one round as shown above.  Succeeded in getting a high intensity workout though so that was good.  Results:  33-34-42 reps.

15 Cal row on my machine takes 2:00 to 2:15 so didn’t leave a lot of time for the rest.  Next time either go with lower weights for the Power Cleans, e.g. 95-75-65lbs, or change the rep scheme to 9R-15RC-21BJO.

5 rounds of

  • 5 x Strict Press @ 75% of 1RM
  • Rest 30 seconds
  • 3-5 x Strict L-Sit Pullups

This part is inspired by the Crossfit Open WOD 19.1. I modified the row for my rower so that I could finish each round in around 60-90 seconds. AMRAP in 15 minutes

  • 19 x Sandbag Thrusters @ 30lbs (Should be 19 Wall Balls)
  • 9 Calorie Row (Should be 19 calories)

Results:  Used 105lbs for the Presses.  Metcon 5 rounds plus 25 reps (165 reps total)
