Not for time perform 3 rounds of:

  • 5 x Pistol Squats each leg
  • 2 x Turkish Getups each side @ 18kg

For time perform 7 rounds of:

  • 10 x SDHP @ 43kg
  • 10 x Sandbag Thrusters @ 15kg
  • 10 x Kettlebell Swings @ 24kg

Results:  Got in 1 x Turkish Getup with the 24kg kettlebell to start… wasn’t pretty but counts :-).  For the Metcon:  19:33, HR max = 174 / ave = 159 … we’ll see how sore I am tomorrow since 70 x 43kg high pulls was a lot.  Had to break into two sets of 5 after the 3rd round.

For form and timing, every two minutes on the minute for 8 rounds:

  • 5 x Thrusters @ 43kg

For time perform the following:

  • 50 x Sandbag Thrusters @ 25kg
  • 30 x Toes to Bar
  • 40 x Sandbag Thrusters
  • 20 x Toes to Bar
  • 30 x Sandbag Thrusters
  • 10 x Toes to Bar

Results:  Skill portion went OK.  Video taped it ans seemed good.  Metcon: 16:27.  Might have over done it with this one.  First 25 thrusters and first 15 T2B were Ok, the rest was very painful. Forgot my heartrate monitor… would have probably been a new high.

Not for time, perform the following:

  • 5 x Front Squats @ 40kg
  • 5 x FS @ 50kg
  • 5 x FS @ 53kg
  • 5 x FS @ 60kg
  • 5 x FS @ 63kg

Then, for time do 1 round of:

  • 21 x Burpees
  • 15 x Thrusters @ 43kg
  • 9 x Strict Pullups
  • 200 x Double Unders
  • 9 x Strict Pullups
  • 15 x Thrusters
  • 21 x Burpees

Results:  Front Squats went so well, tried to make 68kg (bodyweight) but was unable to clean that weight at the end of the round.  For the Metcon 14:58 HR max = 175 / ave = 165. Brutal, thrusters suck on the wrists (funny that the front squats above did not).  Graph below is interesting… long plateau in the middle must be the double unders and the plateau at the end the final 21 burpees.
