24 Aug WOD – Thursday 24 August 2023

CROSSFITREST AND RECOVERY

Strength & Skill

*Do a set every 2 minutes.

14 Barbell Back Rack Step Ups (7 each leg) @ 70%
12 Barbell Back Rack Step Ups (6 each leg) @ 75%
10 Barbell Back Rack Step Ups (5 each leg) @ 80%
10 Barbell Back Rack Step Ups (5 each leg) @ 85%
10 Barbell Back Rack Step Ups (5 each leg) @ 90%

 

WOD: In a 20 minute window
1000m Row

-then-

15 Rounds of Holleyman
5 Wall Balls
3 Handstand Push Ups
1 Power Clean (102/70)

-then-

Max Bench Press

 

SCORE = number of bench press reps (80-85% of 1 rep max)
Target Reps: 40+
Minimum Reps before scaling: 20

 

How to Pace: GRIND!
Hopefully, your partner is ready to go into battle with you because it’s going to be a lot. Be strategic on how things will be split to sustain a consistent, moderate effort across all stations. Use the first part as the primer, grind through the rounds, and make sure to spot each other on the bench.
How it should Feel: MUSCULAR ENDURANCE and CARDIO! We have a 3-course meal today that will fill you and your partner up where seconds won’t even be an option.

 

WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
Row: Use a set time or distance back and forth that allows for a moderate-push pace effort. Whatever you pick ensures that you and your partner get a solid 1:1 work to rest.
Holleyman (30 rounds): We are going to require breaking this up as 1 round back and forth (15 rounds each) today! This will help us recover and keep the intensity.

 

Bench Press: (This weight should not be more than 80% of 1RM) Regardless of the remaining time, approach with caution. You just went through the gauntlet, so be sure someone is spotting. Weight should be moderately heavy while aiming for 3-5 reps back and forth to start.

 

Mobility and Maintenance: Choose 1-2 Thoracic Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 5-10 minutes with them. Choose 1-2 Upper Extremity Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 5-10 minutes with them. Choose 2-3 Lower Extremity Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 10-12 minutes with them.

Nutrition Preparation: Ensure that you have quality foods prepared in the appropriate quantities to fuel your efforts for the remainder of the week.

Mental Restoration: Different for everyone – could be quiet time, prayer or meditation or could be gathering with friends; the key is to engage in activities that make your life full and help you recharge your batteries.

How it should Feel: PAIN!!! These are the 3 movements so many of us “love to hate!” So embrace it today and get it done!

 

WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
Thrusters: Weight should be light enough to go unbroken. Really focus on that hip drive and getting through these with a smooth movement pattern and upright torso.
Bar Facing Burpees: The goal is to stay moving with little to no rest between reps. Pick a pace, stick with it through the majority of the reps and slow down the final 2-3 burpees to allow for a smooth transition to the bar.
Chest to Bar: These are ideally completed in 2-3 sets. Make sure to break these up into smaller, quick sets if needed. Choose wisely when deciding the size of sets you want to take on. Small, quick sets will help prevent burnout from happening in later rounds.

 

 

Mobility and Maintenance: Choose 1-2 Thoracic Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 5-10 minutes with them. Choose 1-2 Upper Extremity Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 5-10 minutes with them.

How it should Feel: GASSY and MUSCULAR ENDURANCE! Everything is getting attacked in this workout. Recover your breathing and shake your arms out during your rest.

 

WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
Double Dumbbell Snatch: This is the start of each set after a break, so try and complete these in 1-2 sets. Keep your chest high while being overly explosive with the hips for each rep. only 1 head of each dumbbell has to touch the ground
Box Jump: Smooth and steady through these. It’s required that you step down (not optional), so just stay moving.
Toes to Bar: Unbroken would be great, but given the magnitude of everything together, don’t be ashamed to break into 2-3 sets to stay aggressive.
GHD Sit Up: Non-stop, steady reps while focusing on breathing to help prepare for the bike.
Row / Bike: Definitely the icing on the cake here so get on the rower/bike, try and ramp it up and settle into a mod-fast push pace effort. The goal should be to finish under 50 seconds every set

 

Mobility and Maintenance: Choose 1-2 Thoracic Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 5-10 minutes with them.

Target Time: sub 8 minutes
Time Cap: 12 minutes

 

How to Pace: STEADY!!
Classic, basic couplet where you either got it on handstands or you don’t. Be smart and break the handstand before they break you. Use the clock and see if you can keep consistent round times.
How it should Feel: MUSCULAR ENDURANCE!
Shake your shoulders early and often cause they will hate you.

 

WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
GHD Sit Up: These are the recovery of the workout. So if your shoulders need time, slow down your cadence and roll the arms on every rep. Stay non-stop and steady.
Strict Handstand Push Up: Goal should be 2-3 sets while the advanced should aim for 1-2 sets. The biggest thing is to not gut through any reps only to reach failure. Shake them out before it’s too late.

WOD: Partner Throwdown Thursday
AMRAP 15 Minutes
Partner 1: 20/16 Calorie Bike/ ROW
Partner 2: Sled Push / DBL KB Walking Lunges 22.5/15

*Switch after each Bike is completed. Score is sled push/ Lunge distance

Round 6+ Sled: (empty)

 

Target Distance: 2000 ft+ (both partners scores combined)
Minimum Distance before Scaling: 1000ft (both partners scores combined)

 

How to Pace: STEADY!
You see the word “MAX,” and you think, all-out effort. That couldn’t be any farther from the truth. We want cosine and sustainable efforts from round to round. Don’t burn out early. While the weight descends, there is still no break for your legs. Set a pace on the bike that can be replicated and aim for a near non-stop push effort of the sled. Ensure you both are communicating when the bike is finished so the partner pushing knows when to stop.
How it should Feel: LACTIC ACID PARTY! As we said above, there is no break for your legs. Grind through each round, put your work boots on, and get to stepping on the sled.

 

WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
Bike: Smooth and consistent pace. Stay upright and breathe while aiming to finish under 90 seconds every time. Slow down the final few calories to help the legs somewhat rest before the push.
Sled push: Weight starts off heavy and will decrease each round. Regardless of the weight, the pacing should remain the same throughout. Aim to keep a steady walking pace that allows for a near non-stop effort through each round.

 

Mobility and Maintenance: Choose 1-2 Thoracic Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 5-10 minutes with them. Choose 1-2 Upper Extremity Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 5-10 minutes with them. Choose 2-3 Lower Extremity Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 10-12 minutes with them.

*You will deadlift the bar up, and then, for the floating clean, bring the barbell back down to just above the ground (do not allow the bar to touch the ground!) and then power clean it.. Pausing in the receive for 3 seconds**

 

WOD: 3-6-9-12-15-18-21
American Kettlebell Swings (32/24)
Box Jump Overs (30/24)

 

Target Time: 8-10 minutes
Time Cap: 14 minutes

 

How to Pace: STEADY!
Ascending rep schemes are always tricky and harder to gauge. Use the first 3 rounds as a primer for your heart rate. Start and stay steady until that final big set, then swing/jump as your life depends on it. Try and keep the rest between the stations, not during.
How it should Feel: GASSY and GRIPPY! It’s pretty much all up-and-down motion. Control your breathing, and don’t get baited into over-pacing off the start with the quick sets.

 

WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
Kettlebell Swings: Heavier weight, but the goal should be unbroken or dang near close to it. Be explosive with your hips and breathe at the top of each rep.
Box Jump Overs: Higher box height, so it might be a good thing so it slows your pacing down. Just be steady and take that slight pause after each rep to gather yourself and reload for the next rep.

Mobility and Maintenance: Choose 1-2 Thoracic Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 5-10 minutes with them. Choose 1-2 Upper Extremity Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 5-10 minutes with them. Choose 2-3 Lower Extremity Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 10-12 minutes with them.

WOD: “Strict Lynne”
5 rounds for max reps of:
Body-weight Bench Presses
Strict Pull-ups
– rest as needed after the pull ups –
** Score Total reps Bench Press and Pullups

 

Target Reps each set: 20+ (bench and strict pull ups combined)
Minimum reps before scaling each set: 10 (bench and strict pull ups combined)

 

How to Pace: STEADY!
This workout is designed to get you to muscle failure. So expect to see a decrease in total reps as sets go on. Don’t be discouraged, it’s the nature of this workout. Just make sure you have a spotter nearby. Once the bench press is completed, give yourself 10-15 seconds before starting the pull-ups. Don’t go to absolute failure on any of the movements. Stop 2-3 reps before the struggle bus arrives, unless you feel the need to nearly empty the tank on set 5.
How it should Feel: MUSCULAR ENDURANCE! Arms, Chest, and pride will be shattered by the end. It’s possible that you could only complete 1 rep by the end at each.

 

WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
Bench Press: Bodyweight is prescribed. We ideally want this weight to allow you to complete 10+ reps when fresh. If you know you can not complete 10 reps off the start, scale the weight down. Breathe through each rep, keep your shoulders depressed back to the bench, and please have a spotter nearby.
Strict Pull-Ups: This will be a real challenge here, so be smooth and steady through the reps and gut out what’s needed but not to the point of failure.

Mobility and Maintenance: Choose 1-2 Thoracic Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 5-10 minutes with them. Choose 1-2 Upper Extremity Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 5-10 minutes with them. Choose 2-3 Lower Extremity Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 10-12 minutes with them.

Nutrition Preparation: Ensure that you have quality foods prepared in the appropriate quantities to fuel your efforts for the remainder of the week.

Row: Similar to the run, get up to speed quickly and keep driving through.
Burpee Bar Muscle Ups: You only have 30 seconds here, so take that first set at a smooth and steady pace and see what you end up with. After that, adjust to keep your reps consistent or slightly increase across rounds (sub to Burpee Pull Ups).
