1 Round of "Cindy"

4 Power Clean and Jerks

100m Run

1 Round of "Cindy"

6 Power Clean and Jerks

[Add 2 Power Clean and Jerks Per Round]

This is an interesting one!

It’s hard to tell how far we can get in 25:00.

What we do know is that it should take ~1:00 for Cals & 1:00 for 1 Round of "Cindy".

It’s possible to do in 1:00 we can be looking at anywhere between 5-10 Power Clean & Jerks.

So, perhaps we are looking to get somewhere between the round of 12 to 18??

Who knows!??! We are excited to find out.

"CINDY" & POWER CLEAN AND JERK

For "Cindy" rounds, we encourage you to scale to options that allow for constant movement. Decreasing reps or modifying the movement (i.e., ring row vs. banded pull-up) to allow constant movement, is going to be the right call for today.

For the C&J – the load should feel manageable for 10 unbroken reps on any given day.

MODIFICATIONS

RUN

Reduce meters

18/12 Calorie Row/ski or 10/7

CLEAN & JERK

Reduce Load

Hang C&J (For simplicity or injury)

Injury: Only Clean or Only Jerk

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.

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).
