WOD:

5 Rounds, Every 3 Minutes:

60′ DB Walking lunge (50/35)

15 Wallballs (20/14)

 

Score is slowest round.

For this WOD, the clock will be continuous.  The sets start on 0:00, 3:00, 6:00, 9:00, and 12:00.  Keep track of the time you finish each set, then do the math after wards to figure out you slowest time. (Ex,and the round from 9:00-12:00, I finish at 10:45, that means my time for that round was 1:45) If there is ever a round where you do not finish the work within 3 minutes, when you  start the next round, cut the wall ball reps down by 5.  Highly suggest setting the DBs on the white line closest to the Wall Ball wall.  Mark off a 30’ turnaround point.  Goal is to keep the DBs in the front rack or on top of shoulders during the lunge.

 

Scaling Options:

DB weight -> 35/25 -> as needed

WB -> 14/12 -> as needed

 

Cool Down:

Couch Stretch – 2 min per side

If completed before 16 minutes, add 4 minutes to the clock and proceed to:
25 toes-to-bars
50 double-unders
7 squat cleans (315/205)

Stop at 20 minutes

NOTES

This workout begins with the athlete standing under the pull-up bar. After the call of “3, 2, 1 … go,” the athlete will have 8 minutes to perform 25 toes-to-bars, followed by 50 double-unders and 15 squat cleans, then perform 25 toes-to-bars, 50 double-unders and 13 squat cleans, this time at a heavier weight. If the athlete does not complete all 178 repetitions within 8 minutes, their workout is over. The athlete will stop and record their score.

If all 178 repetitions are completed within the 8-minute window, the athlete will earn an additional 4 minutes to perform another 25 toes-to-bars, 50 double-unders and 11 squat cleans, again at a heavier weight. If all 264 repetitions (90 from round 1, plus 88 from round 2, plus 86 from round 3) are completed by the 12-minute mark, the athlete will begin another round and the time cap will be extended by an additional 4 minutes. Each round, the weight of the clean will increase while the reps of the clean decrease. Once a round is completed, the athlete may immediately begin the next round. The athlete does not need to wait for the 4-minute round to end before moving on to the next round. This pattern of earning additional time will continue for up to 20 minutes, as long as a full round is completed before the next cutoff.

This workout is over when the athlete fails to complete all the repetitions within the cutoff time for that round. The final round ends at the 20-minute mark. The athlete’s score is the number of repetitions completed up to their cutoff time.

In this workout, another person may assist the athlete in changing the plates on the barbell during the workout, or multiple barbells may be used. Collars must be placed on the outside of all the plates on any bar used during the workout.

TIEBREAK

The scoring for this workout includes a tiebreak. At the end of each set of double-unders, time should be marked. When you submit your final result, your score will be the number of reps completed. There will be another field where you will enter the elapsed time at which you completed your last set of double-unders. In the case where two athletes have the same score (total number of reps), the athlete with the lower tiebreak will be ranked higher.

If all 5 rounds are completed in under 20 minutes, your score is the total time it takes you to complete the workout.

Note: All tiebreak times must be reported in elapsed time, not in time remaining. Do not use a countdown timer.

MOVEMENT STANDARDS

Toe2Bar:

In the toes-to-bar, the athlete must go from a full hang to having the toes touch the pull-up bar. At the start of each rep, the arms must be fully extended and the heels must be brought back behind the bar. Athletes may wrap tape around the pull-up bar or wear hand protection (gymnastics-style grips, gloves, etc.), but they may not tape the bar and wear hand protection. Overhand, underhand, or mixed grip are all permitted. The rep is credited when both feet come into contact with the bar at the same time, between the hands. Any part of the feet may make contact with the bar.

Double Unders:

This is the standard double-under in which the rope passes under the feet twice for each jump. The rope must spin forward for the rep to count. Only successful jumps are counted, not attempts.

 

Squat Clean:

The barbell begins on the ground. Touch and go is permitted. No bouncing or dropping and catching the barbell on the rebound. Once dropped, the barbell must settle on the ground before the athlete begins the next repetition.  The athlete must pass through a full squat with hips below the knees. Receiving the barbell in the bottom of the squat is not required; a power clean or split clean followed by a front squat will be permitted, but a deadlift followed by a hang clean is not allowed.  The rep is credited when the athlete’s hips and knees are fully extended, and the bar is resting on the shoulders with the elbows in front of the bar.

 

Scaling Options:

Beginning on an 8-minute clock, complete as many reps as possible of:
25 hanging knee-raises
50 single-unders
15 squat cleans (95/55)
25 hanging knee-raises
50 single-unders
13 squat cleans (115/75)
If completed before 8 minutes, add 4 minutes to the clock and proceed to:
25 hanging knee-raises
50 single-unders
11 squat cleans (135/95)
If completed before 12 minutes, add 4 minutes to the clock and proceed to:
25 hanging knee-raises
50 single-unders
9 squat cleans (155/115)
If completed before 16 minutes, add 4 minutes to the clock and proceed to:
25 hanging knee-raises
50 single-unders
7 squat cleans (185/135)

Stop at 20 minutes.

S/S/S:

Strict Press

Increase weight ea set

Video courtesy of CrossFit HQ.  Last time hitting the Strict Press before we re-test our 5X5.  Higher reps mean we’re pushing muscular endurance today.  Don’t get sloppy!

WOD:

Every Minute On the Minute for 15 Minutes:

Min 1 – 10 Pull Ups

Min 2 – 8 Burpees

Min 3 – 6 Box Jumps (24/20)

Any time left over in a given minute is rest.  If at the end of any given minute, you haven’t finished the required reps, move on to the next movement. The rep count is low as to help you concentrate on perfect movement per rep.  Don’t let form break down.  Be efficient!

 

Scaling Options:

Reduce reps to finish within the minute

Pull Ups -> Buddha Pull Ups

Box height -> 20-16

 

Cool Down:

Increase weight ea set

Video courtesy of Catalyst Athletics.  Last time hitting the segmented clean deadlifts before re-testing our 5X5.  Not looking for a 1RM on the singles, but heavier than any weight you have used in the previous weeks.  Keep the core tight throughout!

WOD:

18 Min AMRAP:

15/10 Cal Row

15 Deadlifts (135/95)

30 Ab-Mat Sit Ups

For the deadlifts, the goal should be breaking up no more than once per set.  If you can go unbroken throughout the WOD, great, but trying to go 8/7 each round for deads may save the back as the WOD goes on.

 

Scaling Options:

Bar weight -> 115/80 -> 95/65 -> as needed

Ab mat sit ups -> feet anchored

 

Cool Down:

WOD:

19.1

Complete As Many Rounds as possible in 15 Minutes of:

19 Wall Balls (20/14) Men- to a 10′ target, Ladies- to a 9 ‘ target

19 Cal Row

NOTES

The workout begins with the medicine ball on the ground and athlete standing tall. After the call of “3, 2, 1… go,” the athlete will pick up the ball and perform the wall-ball shots. After 19 reps are complete, the athlete will move to the rower and pull 19 calories. The monitor must read 19 calories before the athlete can unstrap and move back to the wall-ball shots for the next round.

The athlete’s score will be the total number of repetitions completed within the 15-minute time cap. Each calorie completed on the row will be equal to 1 rep.

There is no tiebreak for this workout.

Movement Standards:

Wall Balls:

In the wall-ball shot, the medicine ball must be taken from the bottom of a squat, hip crease below the knee, and thrown to hit the specified target.

The rep is credited when the center of the ball hits the target at or above the specified target height. If the ball hits low or does not hit the wall, it is a “no rep.” If the ball drops to the ground from the top, it cannot be caught off the bounce to begin the next rep. The ball must settle on the ground before being picked up for the next rep.

Row:

The monitor on the rower must be set to zero at the beginning of each row. The athlete may have assistance resetting the monitor. The athlete must stay seated on the rower until the monitor reads 19 calories.

 

Scaling Options:

Wall Balls -> 14/10
