Bodyweight EMOM, 3 Ways

EMOM perform 6 rounds of the following sets (one round is all three sets for a total of 18 sets/18 minutes).

First minute (4th minute, 7th minute, etc.) –

  • 3 x Deadlifts @ Bodyweight (70kg)
  • 9 x Kettelbell Swings @ 24kg

Second minute (5th minute, 8th minute, etc.) –

  • 3 x Toes to Bar
  • 9 x Burpees

Third minute (6th minute, 9th minute, etc.) –

  • 3 x Handstand Pushups
  • 9 x Pushups

Repeat for the 6 rounds…

Results:  Made this one up on my own and it seems like it worked really well.  Got the last pushup in the last round with 3 seconds to go, had to even breakup the handstand pushups.  Be careful and try and use more core with the burpees and less arm or your pushups will be really hard.  Right combination of keeping good controlled form since you have a whole minute, but also a good metcon because the volumes are high enough to get the blood pumping.

Snatches, Toes to Bar and Thrusters

Not for time perform 5 rounds of:

  • 5 x Heavy Dumbbell Snatches per Hand

Then for time perform a reverse ladder (10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1) of the following:

  • Toes to Bar
  • Dumbell Thrusters @ 14kg per hand

Results:  For snatches, used 28kg dumbbell.  For the metcon around 8:30.

 

Handstand Work then Kettlebells and Bourbon (Atomic CF)

Perform 3 Rounds of:

  • 60 Second Handstand Hold with back against the wall
  • Rest 1 minute
  • 60 Second Headstand Hold
  • Rest 1 minute

Then do a Kettlebell ladder EMOM beginning at 8 Reps and adding 2 reps per minute (taken from Atomic Crossfit)

  • 8-10-12-and so on…until you cannot complete the total number of reps in the minute

Rest one minute after failure then begin a Push-up Ladder beginning at 6 reps

  • 6-8-10-12 and so until  you cannot complete the total number of reps in the minute

Rest one minute after failure then begin Toes toBar  ladder beginning at 4 reps

  • 4-6-8-10-12 and so on until  you cannot complete the total number of reps in the minute

Results:  Was only able to hold 60 second handstand in the first round, after that only around 30 seconds.  Headstand was the opposite, kept falling in the first round but by the last one was able to hold 60 seconds without touching the wall. Kettlebell Swings – 8 rounds + 14 reps (114 total)/Pushups – 6 rounds + 12 reps (78 total)/T2B – 5 rounds + 6 reps (46 total).

Crossfit Games Workout 15.1 and 15.1a

15.1 AMRAP in 9 minutes of:

  • 15 x Toes to Bar
  • 10 x Deadlift
  • 5 x Snatch

15.1a Immediately following 15.1 with the same running clock find 1RM in 6 minutes for Clean and Jerk.

Scaled weight for 15.1 is 38kg/25kg. Note that scaled toes to bar is hanging knee raises but we missed that part  :-P….

Results:  C:  132 reps / 70kg.   P:  120 reps / 62.5kg.  J:  122 reps / 45kg.  At first I thought it was not very intense but looking at my heartrate graph I guess I was wrong.  Cool to see that my heartrate climbs after a big lift, since 15 minutes  (plus a few seconds since I started my watch early) was the end.
