“Fran” was on the schedule for today and I just wasn’t feeling it so I made up some stuff…
10 Minutes EMOM
- 2 x Back Squat @ 225lbs.
- Power Clean + Clean @ 165lbs.
Then…
Buy In: 100 Double Unders
12 Minute AMRAP
- 8 Pistols
- 10 Russian Kb Swings (2 Pood)
- 12 Ring Rows
Cash Out: 100 Double Unders
The first set of Double Unders took me 1:30. I lost count on rounds. :/ I think I got 7 or 8 rounds. The second set of Double Unders took me 2:00. They were much harder the second time around.
Wednesday was a rest day, Tuesday I went back and revisited the 2012 Crossfit Games Open 12.2 workout. You remember that, right? The Snatch ladder/amrap?
10 Minute AMRAP
- 30 x Snatch @ 75lbs.
- 30 x Snatch @ 135lbs.
- 30 x Snatch @ 165lbs.
- 30 x Snatch @ 210lbs.
Back during the Open in March, I got 4 super ugly 135lb. snatches. This time around I was able to get 11 “not that bad” power snatches. That’s progress, and I’ll take it. That didn’t take me very long to do, so I jumped into the 6am Crossfit class at Faction for “Tabata Tuesday”:
- A1) Wall Ball Shots
- A2) Double Unders
- B1) Russian KB Swings (70/53#)
- B2) Double Unders
- C1) Pushups
- C2) Double Unders
418 Reps! Nice little added workout there…
On Monday, we went back and did the 12.3 Open workout. I was excited about doing this one, and went to look up my score on the site to see what I needed to get to:
238 Reps. The workout looks like this:
I ended up with 7 Rounds + 10 Box jumps. So a total rep score of 262. Another improvement, so I’m happy with that. I remember when I did it before, I was pretty wiped out afterwards. This time I felt pretty good. I think I could have gone a little harder. I’ll try it again in a few months and see what happens…
