Take 15-20 minutes and work up to a heavy

  • 1 x Strict Press

Then 5 rounds for time

  • 10 x TRX Atomic Pushups with Pike Press
  • 15 x Box Jumps
  • 20 x Kettlebell Swings

Results:  For the strict press ended up at 155lbs (new 1RM).  Rep scheme was 5-3-3-3-1-1-1.  Really felt it in my lower back like it was cramping or really fatigued.  Nothing a little stretching didn’t fix, but something to work on.  Metcon 12:57.

5 rounds of

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

  • 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)
