Cleans then Row, Burpees, Pullups and Toes to Bar

5 rounds of

  • 10 x Squat Clean @ 50% 1RM
  • 8 x Squat Clean @ 60%
  • 5 x Squat Clean @ 70%
  • 5 x Squat Clean @ 75%
  • 5 x Squat Clean @ 80%

This part is based on the CF New England WOD from today but modified to match my rower better.  Their version uses a 27-21-15 rep scheme.

AMRAP 4

  • 21 Cal Row
  • 21 x Burpees
  • 21 x Chest to Bar Pullups

Rest 4 minutes then AMRAP 4

  • 15 Cal Row
  • 15 x Burpees
  • 15 x Toes to Bar

Rest 4 minutes then AMRAP 4

  • 9 Cal Row
  • 9 x Burpees
  • 9 x Pullups

Results: I think my 1RM for a Clean is 170lbs but that may be high based on how this WOD went.  Squat Cleans 85-100-115-125-140lbs.  Metcon round 1 – 50 reps, round 2 – 1 round, round 3 – 1 round plus 7 calories.

T2B, Squats, Pushups, Row, Situps and Burpees

3 rounds for time

  • 15 x Strict Toes to Bar
  • 40 x Air Squats
  • 20 x Pushups
  • 250m Row (I did 10cal on my rower since it doesn’t do meters)
  • 20 x Situps
  • 15 x Burpee

Results:  22:51.  Nice 20 minute or so cardio workout when time is limited.  Based on a workout from Atomic Crossfit: Temple of your Dreams. Same idea but 4 RFT and Pullups, not strict T2B so if you have the time, throw in another round.

Bear Complex IV

Redoing the Bear Complex again. Last time was almost exactly one year ago, July 24, 2017 and my best was 110lbs/50kg.

Complete 5 rounds of the following. Record max weight in the round where you are able to do a complete set unbroken (in other words, not putting the bar down until all 7 sets are done).

7 sets of the following series of movements:

  • Power Clean
  • Front Squat
  • Push Press
  • Back Squat
  • Push Press

Cash out: Row 1000m

Results:  65-95-110-115-120(3).  Finally got 115lbs, even if I did stop for an extra breath or two at the bottom of the set. Row in 4:40.
