Time five muscle-ups and 50 box jumps on 20" plyo box.
Stretch/rest 20 minutes.
Time five muscle-ups and 50 box jumps on 20" plyo box.
We're interested in both times and decay rate from first to second effort.
If you can't do muscle-ups, substitute fifteen pull-ups and twenty dips for each muscle-up.
If you can't do pull-ups and dips use assistance device (Cybex, Gravitron, etc.)
If you mix muscle-ups and pull-ups/dips report numbers of each with time.
Scaling:
Today’s workout is in the short-to-moderate time domain. If you can maintain bigger stretches on the L-sit holds and minimize breaks, you should be close to finishing at the 10-minute mark. To stay within that window, find a variation of the L-sit hold that allows you to consistently hold for 10 to 15+ seconds before breaking. If you can hold your option with ease for 45 seconds to 1 minute, try a more challenging option. The box should be a little taller than you want it to be on the jump-overs, and expect your fatigued hip flexors to make jumping a bit more difficult. Consider stepping down from the top of the box. This is not only a safety concern, it is one way to keep yourself moving at a steady pace.
1 Jump on plyo box/ 1 clean pull-up
2 Jumps on plyo box/ 2 clean pull-ups
3 Jumps on plyo box/3 clean pull-ups...
n Jumps on plyo box/ n clean pull-ups
You've got 20 minutes to carry this sequence as far as you can.
The pull-ups need not be within a single set to count. Just alternate
between jumping and pull-ups. Complete the needed number of
pull-ups before the next round of jumps. Pick a challenging height
for the box jump. No jumping on pull-ups.
200 sit-ups no matter how long it takes. Make them nice!
Stretch thoroughly. Used as a rest to slow down pace and come in to the next phase relatively fresh.
Do 50 dips, with or without assistance. This is a 50RM set, i.e., ideally, 51 should be impossible.
Immediately, run for ten minutes on a “windsprint” bike or a stairclimber at max level.
Rest as needed.
Do 35 dips, with or without assistance. This is a 35RM set, i.e., ideally, 36 should be impossible.
Immediately, run for five minutes on a “windsprint” bike or a stairclimber at max level.
Rest as needed.
Do 20 dips, with or without assistance. This is a 20RM set, i.e., ideally, 20 should be impossible.
Immediately, run for five minutes on a “windsprint” bike or a stairclimber at max level.
200 sit-ups no matter how long it takes. Again, make them nice!
Note: Do as many of the dips as you can without assistance on failure jump to Gravitron
(or like) and complete set with minimal assistance. We are exhausting the pushing function
partially with an eye to making the arm supporting contribution on the bike or stairlcimber
very tough
We are due for a little circuit work. Circuit training is an excellent test
of your overall fitness. At CrossFit intensities it becomes debilitating.
We use it sparingly and go all out! This is "combat" or "getting out of
the burning building" fitness.
Decide loads and assistance (if absolutely necessary to get ALL reps)
before starting. Be smart, shelve your ego and shoot for rapid completion
with NO rest. Submit record of total time, weights for each lift, and
assistance (if needed on pull-ups and dips). Set up recording sheet
ahead of time. Rip!!
