2.  OHS
Quickly work up to a heavy single

3.  Snatch Balance

Quickly work up to a heavy single

5.  Front Squat
3x1 - at your 2RM from Tuesday

6.  7 Rounds:
Minute 1: 2-3 Rope Climbs
Minute 2: 10 1-arm DB Push Press, 70/50 - 10 with right arm then 10 with left (20 total per round)
Minute 3: 3 Deads - climb to a heavy set.

This is a 21 minute workout.  On "go" do 2-3 rope climbs and rest the remaining part of the minute.  At the next minute mark to 10 DBPP with right arm, then 10 with your right and rest the remaining time in the minute.  At the next minute do 3 heavy deads and rest the remaining part of the minute.  At the next minute mark start the 2-3 Rope climbs again and continue.

  1. Quickly would be in 10 mins or less?

    1. "Quickly" has more to do with your approach than total time. The difference is that you could get to a heavy single in 10 minutes but take 15 sets to get there.
      Quickly shouldn't take more than 5 or 6 minutes and 3-5 sets.
      For example, if you are going to Snatch PP 225 your approach should look something like this
      5 reps at 95
      3 reps at 135
      2 reps at 185
      1 rep at 205
      1 rep at 225

    1. Dex, we don't have a rope here either. I think I'm gonna go with 5 bar muscle-ups or ring muscle-ups instead.

    2. If its raining out and I cant climb rope ill prolly do some strict MUs

    3. Towel pull ups, 2-3 per rope climb

      Delete
    4. I would suggest towel pull-ups with a knee to elbow on each one. That seems to me closest to a rope climb

      Delete
    5. There is no substitute. If you are looking to compete in the sport of CrossFit you need to be able to climb ropes efficiently. From a strength standpoint towel pull ups work, but rope climbs are technique not strength.

      Get a rope.

    1. Sad news man. Sorry for your loss.

      My brother struggled with heroin for a short time but was smart enough to get away from the situation. I don't know if I will ever be able to fully trust him and not have some level of suspicion about what he's up to because he lives a good 1.5-2 hours away from me. I just keep telling myself to try to set a good example and reach out to him as much as possible.

    3). I was working up in weight and hit 185 then tweaked my tricep. Loaded the bar for 205 and couldn't take the pain.
    4). Skipped
    5). 260 x 3
    6). Done. 2 rope climbs and 315 DL across. On paper the 70lb looks okay, a totally different story after round 3-4

    6. Worked up to 365 on deads ad stopped there didn't want to push to hard on back, and didnt get 10 reps each arm. I think the lowest I got was 7 reps on each arm. All at 70#. Subbed 9 L sit towel pull ups for rope climbs because of the rain down south!

    1. Snatch PP: 205#

    2. OHS: 225#

    3. Snatch Balance: 205# (love this movement)

    4. Hang Squat Snatch: 180#

    5. Front Squat 3x1 OTM: 245#, 250#, 255#

    6. I miss my 15' rope in my backyard... subbed 9 reps of a "pull-up + K2E" movement for the climbs.
    Only option was a 70# KB for the push presses. Did 8+8 each round instead of 10+10. It was a good number to adjust for the added difficulty of the KB.
    Deadlifts went from 255#-315# in 10# increments each round (GOAT!).

    Super fun workout today. I love the "heavy" percentage work. For the past couple years all I practically programmed for myself were 1RM's, 3RM's, and 5RM's. So the low emotional stress of all the 80-95% stuff is so fun and a breath of fresh air. Thanks so much Ben.
