    15 Pull-ups
    9 <a href='/journal/movements/52'>Box jump</a>s, 30/24″
    

    Buy out: Bear crawl 5 lengths

    After bash: 50 wt’d hip extensions

    Well, I'm back in a box after a year of working out at home. It feels great, and I can't wait to get back to peak condition. This workout was grueling given my current condition...it was devastating on my quads. I also have a cold, which didn't help! I'm definitely starting off in a far better place than I did when I started crossfit in 2011 though.

  • Deads and dips Workout

    Dynamic Warm-up

    WOD

    Tabata mash up: 8 rounds of 20 seconds of work followed by 10 seconds of rest of:

    Deadlifts 225

    Ring Dips

    After Bash: Lacrosse balls (whole body work)

    My legs were burnt from yesterday, before I even touched a weight! I went a little light on the deads, but even 225 felt heavy! It's going to take a while to get my major lift numbers back up to where they were a year ago. I was happy to be able to pound out some ring dips though.

    It's obvious to me that during my year at home I did a much better job of keeping my upper body strength vs. my legs. My legs are scrawny and weak right now...doh.

    20 minute AMRAP

    Destroyed my hands. This workout should be dubbed "The Ripper"

  • CF Invictus Performance WOD - 022213 Workout

    Workout of the Day
    A.
    Three sets of:
    Deadlift x 6-8 reps @ 20X1
    245x4, 235x6, 235x4, 225x6
    I started these at 245, but then lowered them to 235 and 225. My hook grip was really slipping, so I wasn't able to finish a ton of consecutive reps - definitely something I'll need to work on. I threw in an additional set, because I wasn't happy I didn't get 6 reps at 235 and had to stop.
    Rest 20 seconds

    Unbroken Kettlebell Swings x 20 reps
    I did these at 24kg (55#), and was able to complete all of these unbroken - I might even try a 60# dumbbell next time.
    Rest 3 minutes

    B.
    For time:
    Row 1000 Meters
    I was feeling the Deadlifts from Part A, but I was still able to get this done in 4 minutes.

    Immediately followed by . . .
    Three rounds of:
    100/65 lb. Thrusters x 10 reps
    I did these at 95#, and they almost wrecked me. I broke the sets down into two sets of five, and on the third set I did the set of 10 without dropping the weight.

    Pull-Ups x 20 reps
    I scaled these down to 10 reps with a blue band, always my weakness. I did two sets of 5 for each set.

    Immediately followed by . . .
    Run 400 Meters
    This took everything I had to complete, finished the entire 1/4 mile at 7.5mph.

    Final time was around 23 minutes for Part B.

  • CF Invictus WOD - 022613 Workout

    Workout of the Day
    A.
    Four sets of:
    Shoulder Press x 1 + Push Press x 4 reps
    95, 115, 135, then I attempted 155 (my technique was terrible on 155).
    Rest 60 seconds

    Strict Toes-to-Bar x 8-10 reps
    I broke these down into separate sets of 4 or 5, but I'm still swiging and can't seem to get this figured out.
    Rest 60 seconds

    B.
    Complete as many rounds and reps as possible in 8 minutes of:
    135/95 lbs Hang Power Clean x 5 reps
    Pull-Ups x 10 reps
    Hand-Release Push-Ups x 15 reps
    I did the Hang Power Cleans Rx'd at 135, I did the Pull-Ups with the green band, and the Hand-Release Push-Ups I did normally.

    I was able to get through 3 sets of this in the 8 minutes.
