Today was a really solid workout ... I really enjoyed getting this in and training my RC / HSW. This was a class workout, but I modified the movements slightly to target my weaknesses.
A.
AMRAP 35:
250m Bike Erg*
2 Rope Climbs (15’)
80’ HSW
60m Farmer’s Carry (2x70/53#)
Rest 1:00
*Bike increases by 250m each round
-5 Rds ... solid aerobic movement, lots of time on my hands, which I need. Mostly unbroken sets of 20' for each set of 80' ... definitely got a bit slower HSWing on the 5th set and actually came down around 10' on two of the sets to break up the segments of 20' ... overall still great training and I was happy to get this in.
B.
Every 2 for 12 (6 sets):

Did the class (A and B) and then added in some extra cardio. Overall a solid crossfit session.
A.
On a 14:00 clock
Back Squat - work up to a heavy triple

B.
6 Rounds:
10 Lateral Bar Burpees
10 Overhead Squats (95/65 / 135/95 / 165/115 - increase weight every 2 rds)
Rest :60

C.
AMRAP 20:
30/25 Cal Row
10 Lateral Burpees Over Rower

AM Workout (0500)
A.
10 RFT:
2 Thrusters (155/105#)
3 Bar Muscle-ups
4 Box Jump Overs (30/24”)
-8:57 ... all sets unbroken, fairly consistent pace ... thrusters were by far the hardest part, but overall felt decent.
B.
On a 12:00 Clock:
Build to 3 RM Push-Press
-155#, 185#, 205# ... didn't really push the loading here, this was a lot on my wrist after the thrusters and just kept the weights manageable and got good reps.
C.
AMRAP 15, with 20# vest:
200m Run
8 Strict Pull-ups
16 DB Box Step-Overs (2x50/35# to 24/20”)
-3 Rds + 3 DB Box Step-Overs ... this was fun / different ... good aerobic training, box step-overs were by far the most challenging part, all sets slowly done with 10/6. Stepping over a box with 120 extra lbs isn't exactly easy or safe, so just moved with intention and flowed through this at a consistent pace.
