WOD Insights Week of 1/29

Monday
For Part A you are welcome to choose any combo of squat and or power clean, as well as split or push jerk. The cleans do not need to be touch and go, however, if you’d like to work on barbell cycling, touch and go would be a good option for that purpose. Likewise, if you’d like the focus to be on skill and/or strength, opt for singles on the clean. For the finisher, Rx’d and ADV are doing alternating dumbbell snatches. If you plan on doing the CrossFit Open, practice switching below eye level as per the new Open standards.

A.) EMOM for 15 mins
2 Clean + 1 Jerk

B.)

4 Rounds
12 Alt DB Snatch Rx’d:~35/25 ADV: Alternating @ ~55/35 (Beefy: Power Snatch 95/65)
15 Box jumps *Beefy no step ups

Tuesday
We did this workout back in December, compare to Dec 19, 2017. I like this format due to the intensity of the couplet, as well as the change in movement. I remember doing this workout in December and pacing was huge. Keep the intensity up and scale the double unders as needed.  You shouldn’t be spending more than 45 seconds (if doing Rx’d) on them.

Rx’d:
3 rounds of:

10 Power Cleans 95/65
20 Double Unders
— then —
3 rounds of:
1 Rope Climb
200m Run
 — then —
3 rounds of:

20 Row Calories (BEEF: 25)
20 Wall Balls (BEEF: 25)

40 Double Unders (BEEF: 60)

Wednesday

With the new Sweat Shop Record board up, I wanted to give the opportunity put some new 800m scores up. This is an all out run, there will be ample rest (6-8 minutes) before part B so be sure to give it your all. For the AMRAP, the lunge weight should be something you can move through quickly. The limiting factor for most will likely be the shoulder to overhead weight, be sure to pander to that. Beefy folks, hold the dumbbells at the shoulders (2017 open standards). Use the same dumbbells you use for the workout for the carry.

A.) 800m TT Run, Row, Bike or Ski

-rest around 6-8 minutes-

B.)
12 minute AMRAP
12 Lunges 75/55 95/65 Beefy: Dumbbells: 45-55/30-35
10 Shoulder to Overhead 95/65 115/75 Beefy: Dumbbells: 45-55/30-35
70m Carry: Rx’d: 1 Medball ADV: 2 Medball Beefy: Dumbells

Thursday 
Squat day! We haven’t had the opportunity to do overhead squats so I wanted to offer this as the ADV option. Part B is short and sweet. Scale pushups by doing them on a box if need be. Rowing for calories is slightly different than rowing for meters. When rowing for calories, shorter, more intense pulls yield more calories than long passive pulls. Keep in mind the new burpee standard if you’re participating in the open. Both feet must jump back and forward (no more stepping).
A.) Front Squat (ADV Overhead Squat)
      3-3-3-3-3
*Ascending weight
B.)
Buy in: 20 Cal Row (30) (40)
Then 3 rounds of:
5 (10) (15) Push ups
10 (12) (15) Jumping Air Squats
Cash out: 20 Burpees (30) (40)
*ADV & Beefy swap cash in and cash out
Friday
I’m shooting for a time domain of around 14-17 minutes. If you have toes to bar, feel free to do them in place of HKR if you’re opting for Rx’d. I’ll be testing this out early this week so stay tuned for updated feedback. The deadlifts should be light but keep form at the top of you mind when doing light deadlifts quickly.

5 Rounds
20 Double Unders or 30 singles (ADV: 40) (Beefy: 60)
8 Hanging Knee Raises or Sit ups (ADV: 10 Toes to Bar) (Beef: 12)
8 Deadlifts 115/75 (ADV: 10 @ 135/95) (Beefy: 12 @ 155/105)
8 Hang Power Cleans (10) (12)
