A: Warm-up (No Measure)

3 Rounds for Quality
:20-30s Ring Support

:20-30s Dead hang Hold on pull up bar

:20-30s Superman Hold

B: Clean (Pull Complex - Build to Heavy 5 TNG Power cleans)

3 Sets:

1 Clean Grip Tempo Deadlift (4s up, 4s down)

1 Clean Grip Deadlift

1 Clean Pull

really work on positioning

then

build up to a heavy 5 touch and go power clean

C: Metcon (Weight)

Part 1-

AMRAP 15:

30 Double Unders (sub 60 single unders)

15 Deadlifts (R+115/75, Rx 95/65)

30 Double Unders

15 Hang Power Cleans

30 Double Unders

15 Push Jerks

Part 2-

At the 15 until 23min

Then 8 minutes to find heaviest lift in the COMPLEX of: 3 Deadlifts + 2 Hang Power Cleans + 1 Push Jerk without releasing hands from the barbell.

We have made this workout a little CrossFit Open-Esg. Workout…then lift heavy.

It is 23 minutes total – Pt 1.15:00 AMRAP, straight into 8:00 of Lifting.

Scoring – number of rounds and reps completed in the 15:00 AMRAP, plus the Heaviest Load in the ‘Complex’.

DOUBLE UNDER

This will take less than :30. The shoulders will feel it in latter rounds.

30 reps are just enough to make the barbell feel a little more uncomfortable.

DEADLIFT

15 Deadlifts at will take ~:30.

Light loading for a lower body pull. Athletes shouldn’t need to break-up 15 reps, but likely will to save grip for the Hang Power Clean. A lot of athletes should think of a loading that they can break into 2 sets by choice.

HANG POWER CLEAN

we start to move into a light-medium loading. However, like the Deadlifts athletes should be considering 2-3 sets across the board.

Movement starts with athlete standing up and taking a bow to the "hang".

Possibly the movement that will cause the most difficulty…..and increase the grippy-ness!

PUSH JERK

Although not typically categorized as the "moderate" load, for 15 reps in a 15:00 AMRAP, will definitely start to feel on the heavier side.

Log Rounds & Reps for each separate AMRAP

POWER SNATCH

This will be a GRIP-FEST for AMRAPS 1 & 2, and steady singles for AMRAP 3. Use a HOOK GRIP!

The lower back is likely to feel it too. Lots of bending at the hip today!

We have increasing loads and descending reps across each AMRAP.

Time spent here will fall between 1:00-2:00 for each.

BURPEES (all three variations)

Each AMRAP presents a more challenging variation, but the good news is…the reps go down!

Each variations of Burpees will average ~:90 give or take :30.

CALS

1st AMRAP Cals = 2:00-3:00

2nd AMRAP Cals = 1:30-2:00

3rd AMRAP Cals = ~1:00

There’s not much to say about this, outside of…yikes! Choose your calories wisely and a number that will push you to finish within the 5:00 AMRAP. This will be a harder option than selecting too many calories and not getting close (less incentive to push).

MODIFICATIONS

12/9 Calorie Bike

HANG SQUAT SNATCHES

Decrease Load

5 Hang Power Snatches + 5 Overhead Squats

There is a lot of ‘jump and land’ between the Box Jump Over & Hang Squat Snatch, which keep the heart rate high.

Your legs are going to go!

Athlete can shoot for 2-2:30 minute rounds.

Goal: 4-5 Rounds

BOX JUMP OVER

A very familiar movement that will elevate the heart rate considerably.

HANG SQUAT SNATCH

A jump and land in an overhead squat – from the hang! This will demand a lot of the lower back and lats.

Let’s keep a close eye on loading for this movement. It’s another sneaky one that could have some athlete breaking way more than needed for this time domain. Lighter is better here!

C: Metcon (Time)

400m Double DB Farmer’s Carry (R+60/40, Rx 50/30)

FARMER’S CARRY (DB’s or KB’s)

The Farmer’s Carry is a phenomenal tool for grip strength, which is what we need if we want to pick things up.

After the workout, allow athletes a few minutes to recover, then start the 400m Farmer’s Carry together.

Expect this to take between 3:30-4:30. 5min time Cap

Athletes will use two DB’s and can walk, jog, or run.

Holding wt OH with a high heart rate is challenging.

Going "full throttle" is an obvious approach, but for "practice" we can spend a certain amount of time under tension going for distance.

Scoring – total time to complete the workout.
