100 burpees for time

Thursday, December 12, 2013

Oly total!

Snatch 1 Rep Max

Rest as much as needed

Clean and jerk 1 Rep Max

Score:  snatch weight/c&j weight (bonus points for reporting your weight in kilos)

My intention is for these lifts to be from the ground, full squat depth, split jerk. If you are not comfortable with full oly lifts, you may do power lifts or start from the hang, just please annotate what you performed. Ex. Hang power snatch 135#/clean +  power jerk 170#

Clean=squat clean
Snatch=squat snatch
Jerk=split jerk
Power  jerk=push jerk
Hang=not starting the lift from the floor

You can always search YouTube for video examples.

Don't forget to report your maxes on the Facebook post!

CrossFit Open WOD 11.4

AMRAP in 10 minutes:

60 bar facing burpees
30 overhead squats @ 120/90#
10 muscle ups

Bar facing burpees: body must be perpendicular to the bar. You must jump off of 2 feet and land on 2 feet on the opposite side of the bar. You may step up to the bar and away from it as you need. Watch your face, try not to eat the bar :)

OHS: first rep may be a squat snatch. No racks allowed. You may clean , rack the bar on your back and jerk it up,  power snatch the bar up, or squat snatch it up. Be careful, these are heavy and high reps. As with any weightlifting movement, if the bar gets out of position, do not try to save the rep, immediately dump it.

Muscle ups: if you can't do muscle ups, sub 1 chest to bar pull-up + 1 ring dip per mu. This is a method of scaling and not considered rx.

CrossFit Open WOD 11.3

AMRAP in 5 Minutes
Squat Clean + Jerk @ 165/110#
(see the link below for movement standards and rules for this WOD)

Rest as needed, then

Thruster - in no more than 7 sets, find your daily 2 rep max


http://media.crossfit.com/games/pdf/GamesOpen11-3_Work-outStandardsk3dR6.pdf

*A 5 Minute AMRAP doesn't sound like a lot, but you should work at max intensity. This sucks big time.


*The thruster is a daily max. After the Clean and Jerk AMRAP, you will be fatigued and will most likely not PR your thruster, that's ok! Just find your 2 rep max for the day.
