Front Squats and T2B plus Power Cleans, Push Press and DUs

Not for time do 5 sets of:

Based on a workout from Crossfit Invictus. Every 4 minutes, for 32 minutes (8 sets) do:

  • 25 Double Unders

Results:  For the front squats did 30kg(65lbs), 48kg (85lbs), 52kg(115lbs), 61kg (135lbs), 61kg.  4 minutes was a long time to wait so if you want, you could increase the Double Unders to 50 (original workout was 250m row).  By the end, the 10 push presses were very hard, so be careful shortening it :-).

Open Workout 16.2 – Modified into a normal WOD

The original workout, if done as prescribed, would have only lasted 4 minutes since I cannot manage the second round weight.  Also since I wanted a decent workout for Sunday, I modified the workout to be 3 sets at the lowest Rx weight.  After the first 4 minutes I recorded my score then just continued to complete the 3 sets for time.

  • 25 x Toes to Bar
  • 50 x Double Unders
  • 9 x Squat Cleans @ 62.5kg (135lbs)

Results:  After 4 minutes, 82 reps.  For the complete 3 sets – 18:06.
