3 Rounds of CF Warmup – 10 pass throughs, 10 OHS, 10 pushups, 10 situps, 10 pullups

10 Barbell Lunges (25% of 1RM Back Squat) -5 each leg
10 Dynamic Pushups (onto 45lb plates)

Post Press Loads to Comments
Complete the CrossFit Warmup for 3 rounds BEFORE class begins.  For the strength segment, for the Press follow the reps and % progression up to 3 sets of 2 reps at 85% 1RM.  You can work quickly through the warmups, but rest roughly 3-4 minutes between the 3 work sets.  Work with at least 1-2 other people on your bench.  This will keep you from working too fast.  These are going to be pretty heavy.

During the skill segment, which is to be done after the Press today, perform 3 sets of Dips. Determine the number of reps for each round by taking 80% of your 1 set max.  Rest 2-3 minutes between sets.  Follow this progression scale if you don’t have Ring Dips:  Pushups – Ring Pushups – Bar Dips – Ring Dips.

For the conditioning workout, set a bar with just 25% 1RM Back Squat on your back.  You can take this bar from the floor…a rack is not needed.  Perform your pushups with hands on the floor.  At the top of each pushup, explode so that your hands land on a 45lb plate.  Scale the height of the plate as necessary.

Complete the CrossFit Warmup for 3 rounds BEFORE class begins.  For the strength segment, follow the warmup progression and then complete 3 sets of 3 reps at 80% 1RM.  Rest 2-3 minutes between work sets.  The entire strength segment shouldn’t take longer than 20 minutes.  Work quickly through the three warmup sets so you can maximize rest time during the 4 work sets.

During the skill segment, which is to be done after the Press today, perform 3 sets of Dips. Determine the number of reps for each round by taking 70% of your 1 set max.  Rest 2-3 minutes between sets.  Follow this progression scale if you don’t have Ring Dips:  Pushups – Ring Pushups – Bar Dips – Ring Dips.

For the conditioning workout, sub Ring Dips for Muscle Ups (3:1 ratio).  Do not rebound off the ground on your box jumps.  This poses potential danger for your Achilles tendon(s).  Sub parallette jumps for DUs.

For the strength segment, follow the warmup progression and then complete 3 sets of 4 reps at 75% 1RM.  Rest 2-3 minutes between work sets.  The entire strength segment shouldn’t take longer than 20 minutes. 

During the skill segment, which is to be done after the Press today, perform 3 sets of  Dips. Determine the number of reps for each round by taking 70% of your 1 set max.  Rest 2-3 minutes between sets.  Follow this progression scale if you don’t have Ring Dips:  Pushups – Ring Pushups – Bar Dips – Ring Dips.

This is a CrossFit Hero WOD.  We’re putting a 20 minute time cap on it today.  You are using the same load for all three movements.  Try to complete each round without putting the bar done.  Obviously, each time you put it down you’re creating more work for yourself. 

We are putting together new PR/Ranking Boards!
Please send the following info to Coach Bea (beatrice@crossfitdurham.com):
– your most recent 1RMs for all of your lifts (squat, press, deadlift, clean, snatch, etc)
– your most recent score on any Benchmark WOD you’ve done (don’t worry, we have several more of these coming in the next few weeks too).

During the skill segment, which is to be done after the Press today, perform 3 sets of  Dips. Determine the number of reps for each round by taking 60% of your 1 set max.  Rest 2-3 minutes between sets.  Follow this progression scale if you don’t have Ring Dips:  Pushups – Ring Pushups – Bar Dips – Ring Dips.

For the strength segment, you will establish a 1RM Press for the day.  Follow the reps and % progression up to 90% and then take 2-3 attempts at a 1RM.  Failing is ok, but know your capacity and don’t be stupid.  Also, you should be working with at least one other person at your station.  This will help insure that you don’t work too quickly and also get us working together.  Make sure you ring the Cowbell and write your PRs on the board too!

For the conditioning workout, work with a partner and alternate rounds.  20m is the equivalent of 10 lengthwise mat lengths or 15 widthwise mat lengths.  Working with one arm at a time is going to really challenge your midline stabilization!

ENDURANCE WORKOUT tonight at 6pm!

Post Dips Total, Press Loads, and Workout Time to Comments
Complete the CrossFit Warmup for 3 rounds BEFORE class begins. For the strength segment, for the Press follow the reps and % progression up to 4 singles at 90% 1RM.  You can work quickly through the warmups, but rest roughly 3-4 minutes between the 3 work sets.  These are going to be very heavy.

Then, you will establish a max set of  Ring dips.  These are to be done AFTER the Presses today.  Take no more than three attempts to do it.  Full extension at the bottom and chin over the bar on top.  If you don’t have ring dips, use the following scaling sequence and determine the same:  pushups – ring pushups – bar dips – ring dips.

For the conditioning workout, you are using one loaded bar for each movement.  Every time you set the barbell down before the end of a round count a penalty of 10 burpees (to be completed in total at the end of the WOD).

Post Score to Comments
This workout begins from the standing position with the barbell on the floor and the Athlete standing tall. Every rep counts in this workout. You will enter your score as the total number of reps. See the Scorecard for assistance in calculating the rep total.

The barbell must make contact with the shoulders, such that the lift is in two distinct phases, the clean, and then the jerk. Snatching is not permitted.

A shoulder press, push press, push jerk or split jerk may be used, as long as the elbow, shoulder, hips and knees are fully extended, and the bar finishes directly over the body with the feet in line. If the jerk is missed but brought back to the front rack, the Athlete may re-attempt the jerk from there without taking the barbell back to the floor.

In the toes-to-bar, the Athlete must go from a full hang to having the toes touch the pull-up bar. Both feet must be in contact with the bar at the same time, inside the hands.  The arms and hips must be fully extended at the bottom and the feet must be brought back behind the bar and behind the body.

COMMUNITY WORKOUT today at 11am!  Bring your friends!
