Warmup:

8 Hang Muscle Clean to Press

Then…

Barbell warmup: With an empty bar and in clean grip, perform 3 reps of the following: strict press, shrugs with bar locked out overhead, behind the neck press, pause strict press (2-sec pause at bottom of press)

S/S/S:

Strict Press

5X3

Increase weight ea set

Video courtesy of CrossFit HQ. Third attack on Strict Press for our current cycle.  The reps per set drop to three, so aim to go heavier than the 3X5 week.  Also, really lock in the core throughout the lift to keep yourself steady.

WOD:

Every 4 Min for 12 Min, complete:

50 Double Unders

15 Power Clean & Jerks (65% of 1RM)

10 Burpee Over Bar

Score = Slowest round

When thinking of the best strategy on attacking this WOD, I would say, smooth-fast-smooth.  Have a smooth, consistent pace through the dubs, et fast (yet safe) in the C&Js, and smooth on the burpee over bar.  If you are not able to get all 15 C&Js unbroken, aim to at least get 5 touch and go before letting go of the bar.

Scaling Options:

Dubs -> 2X Single Unders (ELITE: 100 Dubs every round)

Bar weight -> 50% of C&J 1RM)

Burpee over bar -> burpee to bar step over

Cool Down:

Scorpion Stretch – 1 Min per side

Warmup:

200M jog

WOD:

5 Rounds For Time:

10 Cal Ski Erg

20 Wall Balls (20/14)

400m Run

Video courtesy of Team Misfit.  Some good Wall Ball efficiency tips here!

Think of going from movement to movement as going from one gear to another in a car.  As you move to that next gear, your speed increases.  Start with a steady pace on the ski erg, turn it up a little on the wall balls, and then give the run a good pace.  Maybe open up a bit of a sprint to finish the last run.

Scaling Options:

MB weight -> 14/10 -> as needed

Run -> 500M row

Couch Stretch – 1Min per side

Thread the Needle – 1 Min per side

Little bit of a down-and-up the valley with our rep scheme today.  Look to hit manageable chunks of reps as you chip away at each round.  Don’t go too big and hit a fatigue point.  Knowing when to take that really quick breather to allow you to go right back in on the attack will be important today to get under the cap.

Scaling Options:

HSPUs -> Pike push up off box or floor -> High-kneel dual DB press (ELITE: Deficit HSPUs)

Box height -> 20/16 -> as needed (ELITE: 30/24)

Videos courtesy of Rogue Fitness and CrossFit HQ, respectively.

Looking to get as far as possible in 17 min with this WOD.  The Thrusters and GHDs will stay the same throughout, but your Dubs will go up by 10 every round.  Stay as steady on those as possible. On the GHDs, make sure to “fire” the legs as you come up, otherwise you’re only coming up using the low back.

10 Push-Ups

15 Wall Balls (20/14)

*At start of WOD and every 3 Min, 200’ shuttle run

Time cap: 30 Min

Video courtesy of CrossFit HQ.

Best way to handle this WOD is set up a 25’ section for your shuttle run.  200’ will mean you’ll go down and back the 25’ section 4 times.  Would have the start/end line close to where you will do the rest of the work so you’re not spending a lot of time in transition from shuttle runs to the movements in the WOD.  Remember, the WOD begins with the shuttle run, and then every 3 minutes thereafter.

S/S/S:

Snatch Grip Deadlift

3X5

Increase weight ea set

Video courtesy of Untamed Strength.

Second time hitting our Snatch-grip Deadlifts this cycle.  Focus on keeping the knuckles facing the ground through the lift.  This will hopefully translate to the same habit when hitting snatches, as the knuckles-down helps prevent early arm bend.  Also, keep your back flat!

WOD:

“Isabel”

For Time:

30 Power Snatches (135/95)

Compare to 20190719

Video courtesy of Noah Ohlsen.  Classic CrossFit Benchmark today!  The snatches can be Power (actually, suggest this so you can move through faster!).  Even though I want you going fast, don’t let your form go downhill for the sake of speed.  Rather you have a slower time than injure yourself.

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

Cool Down:

Video courtesy of Kristi Eramo O’Connell.

Today we want to take some time to hone in some bodyweight skills and strength pieces.  On the pistols, work to keep the body in a good position through the squats.  For the strict pull ups, look to go into a scap pull up before pulling the body up. Really drive the ribs into the ground on the Hollow Hold, and lastly keep a tight core as moving through the Handstand Push Ups.

Scaling Options:

Pistols -> Banded pistols -> pistol to target

Strict pullups -> banded strict pull ups -> Buddha Pull Ups -> Ring Rows

Hollow Hold -> Tuck hold

HSPUs -> Pike push up off box or floor -> High-kneel dual DB press
