12/5/2014 – WOD

Strength
Front Squat – 15 Min to Work up to a 1RM

Conditioning
4 Rounds For Time
15 Thrusters 95/65lb
1 Rope Climb 20ft
15 Cal Ski/Row

WOD Notes: You should be doing this WOD if you were here everyday this week, if not you may make-up another WOD. Thruster weight is very light to where you should be able to do all 15 reps unbroken every round. This WOD is designed for you to move the entire time, unlike some of the WOD’s earlier this week that involved a heavier barbell. Scaling for RC are 3 up/downs or 10 slam balls.

Reminder: No classes this Saturday! We will be over at CrossFit Kazam (75 Industrial Parkway, Unit C, Pottstown, PA 19464)

12/4/2014 – WOD

Strength
Clean (tempo) – 10×1 @ 75-80%
—Same as yesterday for the Snatch. Slow pull off the ground, build speed, & stay over bar while bringing it to hips.

Conditioning
12 Min AMRAP
2 Deadlifts 365/225lb
10 Burpee Box Jumps 24/20″
5 Strict C2B Pull-ups

WOD Notes: DL weight is 75-77% of 1RM. Take extra time if necessary to setup properly before each DL & focus on neutral spine. You may scale C2B to Chin over bar.

12/3/2014 – WOD

Strength
Snatch (tempo) – 10×1 @ 75-80%
—Pull to above the knee must take at least 2 sec. Build speed throughout lift. This will force you to be patient, engage hamstrings, & not pull early with arms. Full squat is preferred.

Conditioning
6 Rounds (each round is 95%+ effort)
5 Power Snatch (75% 1RM Power Snatch)
15 Wall Balls (unbroken) 30/20lb
300m Row
—Rest 90 seconds between rounds

Assistance
Accumulate 3 minutes in a reverse GHD Sit-up Hold

WOD Notes: Power snatches must be touch n go. There is a 10 burpee penalty for each time you break up the wall balls that you will do after the workout if necessary. Rx’d height is black line for men & women. Score = total time minus 7.5 minutes.

Handstand fun!

12/1/2014 – WOD

Strength
Back Squat – 20 Min to Work up to a 1RM

Conditioning
5 Rounds For Time
8 DB Snatches (altnernating) 100/70lb
10 Goblet Squat (w/DB) 100/70lb
12 Burpees

WOD Notes: You must go right into the goblet squats after the last DB Snatch. I would recommend holding the DB (horizontally) with both hands. DB Snatches should be a little heavier than normal.
