WOD:

Front Squat 3-3-3-3-3 Heavy!

10 Rounds for time of:

  • 10 Kettlebell Swings
  • 10 Box Jumps

RESULTS:

…-235-265(f)-255(f)
16:35 (7 rounds @ 1.5 pood, 3 round @ 1 pood, 24″ box)

All around… not one of my best days. Didn’t get anywhere near my max front squat (275#). We also some how ended up working with a 35# bar, eventually we switched to the standard 45#.

As for the metcon, I didn’t think I was going that slow… but when everyone else was finishing I was only on round 7. I was ready to give up… but of course nobody would let me. So after a quick rest on my back, I dropped down to 1 pood and finished the last 3 rounds. Thanks guys for pushing me.

Needless to say, after this I spend some time on the foam roller and reverse hyper to help my back out.

Then I spent about 10min or so working on double-unders. Several folks have tried to convince me to sign up for the CrossFit Games Open, but the first WOD includes double-unders which I haven’t quite gotten… yet.

 

WOD:

As a team of 4, you have 15 min to complete:

28-20-12:

  • 225# deadlift
  • Handstand push-up

40-50-60:

  • Commando push-ups
  • Air squat

Max rep thrusters (95#) = scrore

Only two people working at a time.

RESULTS:

110 thrusters

The class was pretty fun, we started off with some Frisbee golf w/ a burpee penalty for missing. Then moved onto dodgeball w/ burpee, push-up, or v-up penalties. And that was just the warm up. Needless to say I got a few of my 110 burpees out of the way. Oh and I did attempt the HSPU against the wall and managed to kinda get them. I’m pretty sure I didn’t get full range of motion, but I’m alot closer than I was.

WOD:

Heavy Deadlifting (no set scheme, just lift heavy objects)

As many rounds as possible in 10 minutes of:

  • 10 SDHP’s @ 75#
  • 7 Sit Ups
  • 5 Burpees

RESULTS:

355#
9 rounds

A little disappointed in my deadlifting, but being that my legs where already dead I’m not surprised that I didn’t get close to my max. But it was still good to lift heavy things again ;-) As for the AMRAP, I was pretty happy with it. The weight was light enough that I didn’t slow down too much. Plus I got to know a few burpees out of the way…

Burpees Day 106:

45 (during WOD) + 61 (post WOD) = 106 burpees done

WOD:

It was the birthday of Austin B  (Jason’s coach) from Crossfit Milpitas, so here is his birthday WOD:

Max Rounds in 32 Minutes of:

  • 3 Power Snatches @ 135#’s/ 95#’s
  • 5 Squat Cleans @ 135#’s/ 95#’s
  • 15 Push Ups
  • 20 Jumping Lunges
  • 35 Double Under’s
  • 50 foot 45# plate carry (plate can not touch your body)

RESULTS:

5 round + 43 (thru lunges) @95#

32 min is a long time.

Overall, not bad. My weak points where jumping lunges and double-unders. My legs were pretty sore from Monday, which made the lunges rough. However, with the double-unders… as much as they suck and I continue to lash my self with the rope… I’m finally starting to get them strung together. I think I got upwards of 7 in a row! But 35 still took a while.
