WOD – Cleans and Double-Unders

WOD:
In 15 minutes:

  • Every minute on the minute perform 2 Power Cleans at 205# (could be squat if necessary).
  • For the rest of the minute perform max double unders.

RESULTS:
135 @ 135#

So I f***ed my right wrist right at the start  (meaning during warm-up sets for the cleans) which really really sucked. For about the last half of the workout, I was completely letting go of the bar at the top and it was just sitting on my shoulders… at least on the right side, my left had was fine.

I unfortunately didn’t get high of score, however, I opted to stick with the double-unders attempts rather than sub push-up/squats since I really want to get them. I was good practice and I did get a few of them strung together, but I am still using the incorrect hop method to do so. Oh and I do have to say, I’ve been pretty good about not getting myself with the new Rogue jump rope I have… but when it does get you, it gets you good and it HELLA hurts. No pain, no gain right? ;-D

Team WOD:

  • Row
  • Push-ups
  • Knees-2-elbows
  • Double-unders

1 team member at each station, rotate every minute until as a team you complete 2k of rowing.

RESULTS:

CHAOS!!! for at least the first few rounds, nobody could seem to keep the rotation in order ;-)

As for our time… no idea as our rower kept resetting. But it was nice workout to come back to after a few days off.  And I got use my new jump rope some more.

WOD – Max Deadlift and Metcon

WOD:
Find your 1 Rep Max Deadlift

5 Rounds for time of:

  • 20 Double Unders
  • 15 Pull Ups
  • 10 2 pood KB Swings

RESULTS:
375# PR
21:28 @ 1.5 pood

So funny thing with the deadlift… my previous PR was 365# and the last time I was only able to get up to 345# (failed at 355#). So I loaded up the bar with 365# and then added 1/2# plates and got a new PR of 366# ;-D Everyone thought it was pretty classic. But then I went and swapped the 1/2# for 5# and got 375#… Woo Hoo!

As for the metcon… it sucked. The double under attempts took me forever and I attempted the 2 pood KB which was a bad idea. Recently KB swings have been bothering my back and that didn’t help. I actually stopped and laid on the floor twice during the workout. They said it should have been a sub 10min workout…. ya not so much for me. But I finished.
