3/19/2014 – WOD

Strength
EMOM for 10 Min
ODD = 3 Snatches (full) @ 80%
EVEN = 1 Rope Climb 20′ (count the # of pulls it takes to get to the top)

Conditioning
For Time
2-4-6-8-10-8-6-4-2 – Push Jerk 135/95lb
1-2-3-4-5-4-3-2-1 – Muscle-Ups

WOD Notes: Push Jerk weight should be light so that you can move quickly through this WOD. Scaling for MU are doing only 1 or 2 reps each round, MU progresssions on the ground, MU attempts on the high rings, or 10 burpees each round (90 total).

3/18/2014 – WOD

Strength
EMOM For 10 Minutes
ODD = 3 Hang Power Cleans (80%)
EVEN = 5 Strict Pull-ups (weighted)
—Pull-ups should be heavy, but not quite a 5RM each round

Conditioning
3 Rounds For Time
50 Double Unders
15 C2B Pull-ups
500m Row
—Rest 5 minutes
30 GI Janes For Time

Midline
Accumulate 3 min GHD Sit-up Hold (weighted)

WOD Notes: Scaling for DU, is 125 singles or 25 DU each round. You may scale to chin over bar if C2B is too difficult without a band. Make sure to push the pace on the row each round (80% effort) then sprint the last round. The 30 GI Janes for time should be approached as a sprint (1-3 minute WOD).

3/17/2014 – WOD

Strength
Back Squat – 5×3 @ 90%
—Rest 2 minutes between sets

Conditioning
15 Min AMRAP
15 Wall Balls 30/20lb
12 Bar Facing Burpees
9 T2B

WOD Notes: Rx’d for WB is 10′ (black line) men & 9′ (red line) for women & masters 55+. You must face the bar on the burpees. I think you will see at least two of these movements in 14.4, so I wanted to make sure you could practice them early this week. You should be going a little heavier than normal on the WB, but if you want to use same weight you normally do to move faster that’s fine.

WOD Notes: Rx’d for GI Janes is using a pullup bar that’s at least 4 inches above reach. Scaling for DU are 125 singles each round.

Open Annoucement: There are many of you who are repeating 14.2 tonight. I would prefer if you do it before the 4pm class or right at 7pm as I’m warming up the 7pm class. I think it will be beneficial if we can group most of you together to create a high energy atmosphere. Rage is doing well as a team so far, so let’s keep this up & RAGE all over 14.2’s face!!
