Deadlifts then Row, Mountain Climbers, Sandbag Over the Shoulder and Platewalks

Four rounds of

  • 5 x Deadlift @ 75%
  • Rest 2 minutes between rounds

Then for total reps/calories 4 rounds of 30 seconds work / 30 seconds rest of the following:

  • Station 1: Row for Calories
  • Station 2: Mountain Climbers
  • Station 3: Sandbag Ground to Over the Shoulder @ 50lbs
  • Station 4: Ring/TRX Pushups

Results: Deadlifts 225lbs. Metcon Row x 16 – Mt Climbers x 132 – Sandbags x 25 – Pushups x 65 – Total 238.

Row, Run and Cleans

Every 3 minutes for 15 minutes (5 rounds)

  • 1.1.1 x Squat Clean (stop and reset between reps)

Every 6 minutes for 24 minutes (4 sets)

  • Row 10 Calories (should take around 1:00-1:30)
  • 3 x Squat Cleans @ 95lbs/43kg
  • Run 200m
  • 3 x Squat Cleans @ 95lbs/43kg

Results: Squat Cleans 95-115-125-135-145lbs. Metcon 3:43-3:53-3:48-3:40. Probably would have been better to have used only 5 minutes instead of 6 per round since over 2 minutes rest was probably too much.

Snatch and OHS Practice then Run, Row, KBS and BBJO

Took 20 minutes to work on Snatches and Overhead Squats.

Then AMRAP in 20 minutes

  • Run 400m
  • 30 x Kettlebell Swings
  • Row 15 Calories
  • 10 x Burpee Box Jump Overs

Worked on only nose breathing, so kept a pace which did not require me to start breathing through my mouth. Lisa has been trying the same in her workouts. More information on this blog: Rethink Your Breahing.

Results: Overhead Squats and Snatches went well. Even got to a Squat Snatch at 75lbs. Metcon 2 rounds plus 400m/25 KBS.
