  • CF Invictus Performance WOD - 050113 Workout

    Complete as many rounds and reps as possible in 8 minutes of:
    Row 250 Meters
    5 Handstand Push-Ups
    10 Thrusters (95/65 lbs)
    Rest 8 minutes
    I wasn't able to find a place to do Handstand Push-Ups, so this became a couplet. I was able to get four sets done, the first set of Rowing I got as fast as a 1:31 pace!

    Complete as many rounds and reps as possible in 8 minutes of:
    40 Double-Unders
    20/15 Hand-Release Push-Ups
    10 Pull-Ups
    Rest 8 minutes
    For these, I did 20 Double Unders instead, as I had a weighted rope. For the Pull-Ups, I used the red strap, and for the Push-Ups, I did sets of 15. Because I struggled with the last set of Double Unders, I only got through 3 sets.

    Complete as many rounds and reps as possible in 8 minutes of:
    20 Box Jumps (24″/18″)
    15 Toes to Bar
    10/5 Ring Dips
    The Box Jumps I broke up into two sets of 10, and for the Toes to Bar I did Knees to Chest on a machine, as the Pull-Up bar wasn't available. For the Ring Dips (because they're one of my worst exercises), I did them on the dip machine, with 75lb of spot, and I only managed to do 5 reps on each set (awful).

  • CFP Women's Power WOD Workout

    Team of 3
    100 Burpees jump over partner
    100 Box jumps, 20#
    100 Wall Balls throwing to partner, 10#
    400m run with 10# wall ball
    FINISH : 20:24

    Got to work out with Chris and Liz and this was so much fun. 1st time burpees felt good, but the wall ball run was so hard carrying that ball comfortably.

  • Lifting: 5/3/1B w3d1 - press Workout

    Presses in the garage. Tried out my new weightlifting shoes.

    Warmup:
    5 min jump rope w/ DU practice; resistance band stretches and pulls; mobility stuff.

    Think I'm getting worse at jump rope again. I didn't jump in the lifting shoes obviously. Whacked myself in the back of the neck with a resistance band at one point, which was a laugh riot.

    PRESS:
    Warmup sets: 5 x 35#, 5 x 40#, 3 x 50#
    Working sets: 5 x 60#, 3 x 70#, 1+ x 80# (7 reps)

    Great but could be better. The 7 reps gives me a theoretical 1RM of 99#, which is still much higher than the 85# I was stuck at for a while before I did Wendler. So I'm happy with that gain. But I could've gotten 8 or 9 reps if my grip wasn't messed up. Wrists were bent, and had to readjust my fingers about 5 reps in. I might need to set the pins one notch higher. The Oly shoes felt very comfortable and was firmly planted on the mats.

    Then supersets:
    5 x 10 @ 40#
    5 x 10 chinups
    Presses felt very easy. Chinups were hard -- had to use bands.

    Then:
    3 clean and jerks @ 85#, 3 clean and jerks @ 65#
    Did some light C&Js to try out the Oly shoes.

  • Hero: Whitten Workout

    Warmup
    3 Minutes Row @ 80-90% RPE

    NFT
    20 each Walking Lunge
    15 Air Squat
    10 Push Up

    Conditioning

    "Whitten"
    5 RFT of:

    22 USA K.B. Swing (2/1.5 Pood)
    22 Box Jumps (24/20″)
    400M Run
    22 Burpees
    22 WallBall (20/14)

    40 minute cap

    3 rounds + 14 wall balls - 12kg kb, 12# wall ball, 10" box + 2 45# plates box jumps


    What a killer. Sprinted on the 3rd 400m because I thought we were capped at 35 min. Kind of bummed I was 8 wallballs short of 4 rounds, but nbd. Can tell that endurance is getting better, especially with burpees.

    For this week, I plan to focus on pushing myself harder - going 1 rep more when I think I can't go anymore.
