Russian KB Swings (70/52)
Chin Ups
Post TGU Loads and Workout Time to Comments
For the strength segment, perform 10 Turkish Get Ups on each arm. Start light and work up to the heaviest load you can handle. Finish your ten reps at that load (ie, 25, 30, 35, 40, 44, 52, 60, 70, 70, 70). Take your time with each step of the movement. Remember, that the direction of the “tactical” Turkish Get Up can be reversed at any step along the way.
For the conditioning workout, use an underhand grip for Chin Ups. These will be quite a different stimulus from regular, overhand grip pullups. Note that the KB Swings are Russian…make them heavy. Your grip will be smoked from this, but don’t abuse the chalk! Check out this great post on chalk from CF One World.

Post Back Squat Loads and Workout Rounds Completed to Comments
For the strength segment, perform sets of Back Squats working up to a Max Effort single rep for the day. Make sure to squat all reps below parallel.
For the conditioning workout, scale the Deadlift load as necessary. You should be use a load that will let you do most sets of the DL unbroken. Take care not to hit your head on the bar during the burpees. Sprint each 100m…take a few deep breaths before starting so you can avoid jogging and run as hard as you can each round.

Snatch
5-5-5-3-3-3

3 Rounds For Time:
10 DB Hang Clean & Thrusters
50 Double Unders
Post Snatch Loads and Workout Time to Comments
For the strength segment, gradually add weight to the bar working up to a heavy set of 3 Snatches. If your form is suspect from the floor, work from one of the hang positions (above or below the knee). If your Overhead Squat is where you have difficulty work on Snatch Drops or Balances instead.
For the conditioning workout, use the heaviest dumbbells you can handle. Hang clean can be from above or below the knee, but must be received in a full squat. Sub parallette jumps for Double Unders.
OPEN GYM tonight from 7-7:45pm! Make up a missed workout or work on your lifts!
