Part B: WOD

4 Sets
18/14 Calorie Echo Bike/ 10x25m Shuttle Run/ Row 300m
12 Overhead Squat (60/45kg)
6 Ring Muscle Up (OR 9 Burpee Pull Up)
-rest 1:1 between sets-

 

TARGET SCORE
Intended Workout RPE: 8.5 – 85% – high intensity
Target Time each set: sub 2 minutes
Time Cap each set: 2 minutes 30 seconds

 

STIMULUS and GOALS
How to Pace: CHALLENGE! Push this one from the get go! We have a rep scheme descending so you can move quickly from station to station and hold bigger sets. We’d love for you to start aggressive and stay with the same score, or slightly faster, each set!

How it should Feel: GASSY and MUSCULAR ENDURANCE! The bike will get the lungs going and then you will have the Overhead squats will fatigue shoulders with legs not fresh off the bike. The muscle ups will challenge your pressing capacity at the end of each interval.

 

WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
Echo Bike: Come out ~85% effort each bike and aim to finish these calories in just over a minute.

Overhead Squat: We want unbroken ideally throughout here! If you blow up and need to drop to 2 sets that is okay. Think position is king and the same cadence each rep! Don’t use over 60% of 1RM for these.

Ring Muscle Up: 1-2 sets is the aim! If you need to drop to smaller sets in later rounds that is fine as long as you don’t drop past the time cap.
—or Burpee Pull Up

 

 

Mobility and Maintenance: Choose 1-2 Thoracic Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 5-10 minutes with them. Choose 1-2 Upper Extremity Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 5-10 minutes with them. Choose 2-3 Lower Extremity Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 10-12 minutes with them.

Nutrition Preparation: Ensure that you have quality foods prepared in the appropriate quantities to fuel your efforts for the remainder of the week.

Mental Restoration: Different for everyone – could be quiet time, prayer or meditation or could be gathering with friends; the key is to engage in activities that make your life full and help you recharge your batteries.

WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
Double Under: Smooth is fast. Breathe and just make sure that you are able to keep unbroken sets across the whole workout.

STIMULUS and GOALS
How to Pace: STEADY! This workout blends grip endurance, midline stability, and aerobic capacity while challenging both strength and gymnastics skills. For the first amrap stay consistent and controlled to avoid blowing out your grip. Move smoothly through the rope climbs, keep lunges steady, and breathe through the double unders. Expect a higher heart rate on the second amrap. Maintain a steady effort on the Ski and push the pace on the Devil’s Press while keeping control for the Handstand Walk.

How it should Feel: CARDIO! Fatigue will set in progressively, especially in the grip and shoulders. You should finish feeling challenged but not completely redlined—it’s about sustained effort rather than maxing out early.

 

WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
Rope Climb: Big jump, use legs before arms and get down fast.

Double Dumbbell Front Rack Walking Lunge: Short and sweet, no hesitation, just pick up the weight and get moving.

Double Under: Unbroken! Ensure you lay your rope down every time.

Dumbbell Devil Press: Be efficient and launch the weight up with your hips. Breathe through the motion and don’t stop moving.

Ski: use your total body and breathe through the motion. Pacing should be moderate-fast while aiming to stay under 50 seconds.

TARGET SCORE
Intended Workout RPE: 9.5-10 – 95-100% – near max to max intensity
Target Reps: 180 Reps (1 Round)

 

STIMULUS and GOALS
How to Pace: STEADY into PAIN CAVE! This workout is a gritty test of strength, endurance, and midline stamina. Pace smartly early to have the ability to push towards the end of the amrap.

How it should Feel: LACTIC ACID PARTY, CARDIO and MUSCULAR ENDURANCE! The squat cleans are demanding under fatigue, the shuttle runs elevate heart rate, and the GHDs tax the core. Expect a high heart rate, burning legs, and a fatigued midline by the end.

 

WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
Squat Clean: Weight should be moderate-heavy (under 75% of 1RM). Singles are recommended to maintain efficiency and avoid early fatigue. Stay aggressive with the time between reps and maintain a solid midline.

Shuttle Run: Maintain a consistent pace, around 80-85% effort—not a sprint, but not a jog. Focus on breathing control—this is where you can regulate your heart rate. Slow down the final shuttle run.

GHD Sit Up: Keep a steady rhythm—don’t rush the first half and burn out. Use your arms and hips together to explode up on every rep.

 

 

Mobility and Maintenance: Choose 1-2 Thoracic Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 5-10 minutes with them. Choose 1-2 Upper Extremity Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 5-10 minutes with them.

Use the rest wisely, focus on slow breathing and relaxing your grip to recover for the next effort. After the rest it’s time for unbroken wall balls.

How it should Feel: GASSY and MUSCULAR ENDURANCE! This workout is designed to test repeatable rowing efforts under fatigue, followed by sustained leg and shoulder endurance with a high-volume wall ball finisher.

 

WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW

25 Mar WOD – Tuesday 25 March 2025

CROSSFITREST AND RECOVERY

Part A: Strength & Skill

*Do a set every 2 minutes

 

5 Sets
Pause Clean Deadlift to Mid Thigh + Clean Pull from Mid Thigh + Pause Clean Deadlift to Mid Thigh + Hang Clean from Mid Thigh + Jerk @65-75% 1RM Clean

Part B: WOD

5 sets
15/12 Calorie Echo Bike/ 10x 25m Shuttle runs/ 250m Row
12 Dumbbell Deadlifts (2×22.5/15kg)
9 Dumbbell Hang Cleans (2×22.5/15kg)
6 Dumbbell Shoulder To Overhead (2×22.5/15kg)
-rest 2min between sets-

 

TARGET SCORE
Intended Workout RPE: 8.5 – 85% – high intensity
Target Time each set: sub 2 minutes
Time Cap each set: 3 minutes

 

STIMULUS and GOALS
How to Pace: CHALLENGE! It looks like “DT,” but I assure you this one hits differently. We want an effort that allows for repeatable moderate to high output across all rounds. The first round is all the test pace, so tone it down a little to see how the body feels. Keep transitions aggressive while using the time between for a quick breather. If you have the grip endurance, see if you can stay unbroken on all the dumbbell movements going from one to another without setting them down.

How it should Feel: LACTIC ACID PARTY! And GRIPPY! A little bit of everything with the dumbbell complex, and at the beginning of each round, there is a cardio kick to keep the lungs ignited.

 

WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
AB/ Shuttles: Pacing should be moderately aggressive (80%+) while aiming to finish under 60 seconds every time. Slow down the final 2-3 calories for a smooth transition back to the dumbbells.

Dumbbell Deadlift: Goal is unbroken or at least to the 11th rep before taking a quick break if needed. Hook grip these and move quickly to avoid burning out your grip and lessen time under tension.

Dumbbell Hang Cleans: Unbroken should be the aim for round 1, so don’t pick them up unless you know that you can get all 9 reps down and transition right into the shoulder to overhead. Be aggressive with your hip drive and relax your hands in the catch. If you get completely cooked, then you can set down for a very quick shakeout before the last rep then going into dumbbell shoulder to overhead.

Dumbbell Shoulder to Overhead – Can be Dumbbell Push Press OR Dumbbell Push Jerk: Once the weight is up they are not coming back down until the job is done. Big hips and breathe through the motion.

 

Mobility and Maintenance: Choose 1-2 Thoracic Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 5-10 minutes with them. Choose 1-2 Upper Extremity Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 5-10 minutes with them. Choose 2-3 Lower Extremity Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 10-12 minutes with them.

Nutrition Preparation: Ensure that you have quality foods prepared in the appropriate quantities to fuel your efforts for the remainder of the week.

Mental Restoration: Different for everyone – could be quiet time, prayer or meditation or could be gathering with friends; the key is to engage in activities that make your life full and help you recharge your batteries.

TARGET SCORE
Intended Workout RPE: 8.5 – 85% – high intensity
Target Time each workout: 4-5 minutes
Time Cap each workout: 6 minutes

 

STIMULUS and GOALS
How to Pace: CHALLENGE into SPRINT! Descending rounds, climbing rep schemes with decreasing skill. Ideally, the intensity should slightly increase and speed up each workout. So try to see if your times can get faster as the transitions go down.

How it should Feel: GASSY with some MUSCULAR ENDURANCE! We have a lot of up and down movement with nonstop work. Control your heart rate and stay aggressive.

 

WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
Bar Muscle Ups: Pacing on all 3 sets with these should be smooth and steady. Don’t burn these down so you are completely whipped when going into the box jump overs. Aim for BIG pulls with your feet getting close to your hands even if it slows down your overall speed today.

Burpee Box Jump Over: Height starts off high and then goes down through the last workout. You will obviously be slower to start so try to ramp up the pace on each workout. Aiming to step or hop down on each rep with consistency. Don’t rebound these; it’s not worth the risk of injury.

 

 

Mobility and Maintenance: Choose 1-2 Thoracic Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 5-10 minutes with them. Choose 1-2 Upper Extremity Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 5-10 minutes with them.

21 Mar WOD – Friday 21 March 2025

CROSSFITREST AND RECOVERY

PART A: WOD

5 Sets
5 Ring Muscle Ups (OR 10 Burpee Pull Up)
10 Wall Facing Strict Handstand Push Ups
15 Shuttle Runs (20m)
15 Pistols/ 2 x DB Reverse Lunges 7+7
*Rest 3min between sets.

 

TARGET SCORE
Intended Workout RPE: 8.5 – 85% – high intensity
Target Time each set: sub 3 minutes 30 seconds
Time Cap each set: 4 minutes

 

STIMULUS and GOALS
How to Pace: CHALLENGE! Come out moving with a high-intensity through this multiple-set gymnastic chipper. The first two movements are upper-body dominant, and then it flips into all legs. The first set should be a little light on the pace, and then start to ramp it up until selling out on the final. Be aggressive on transitions with a slight hesitation going to the handstand push-ups, as this will have the highest potential for muscle failure.

How it should Feel: MUSCULAR ENDURANCE and GASSY! Total body on this workout, so be ready to roll out everything.

 

WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
Ring Muscle Up: The goal is unbroken across all sets, so be explosive on your Kip. To start, do two sets at most. Otherwise, scale back the number.

Wall Facing Strict Handstand Push Ups: unbroken is the goal here as well, but don’t force if only to reach failure. Be smart and breathe through the motion.

Shuttle Run: just stay moving and don’t sprint, but don’t slack off. (80-85% pacing)

Pistol Squat: keep moving and be safe on these. Make sure you meet the standards on every rep.

 

 

PART B: Strength & Skill

6-8x Single arm KB/ DB Strict Press
6-8x Single arm KB/DB Bent over Row
*Perform both the press and the row on one side, then change sides

 

Complete 3-4 heavy sets each side

100m Front Rack Carry, Bear Hug Sandbag Carry (2×32/20)(KB or DB)

TARGET SCORE
Intended Workout RPE: 7 – 70% – moderate intensity
Target Time: sub 22 minutes
Time Cap: 30 minutes

 

STIMULUS and GOALS
How to Pace: GRIND! It’s smooth and steady with a slight push-pace effort on the bike. After that, it’s time to roll up your sleeves and go to work. This is all grunt work, and you just need to know your limits and when to break to avoid long rest periods.

How it should Feel: CARDIO and MUSCULAR ENDURANCE! After the leg pump on the bike it switches to heavy breathing, broken-down shoulders and swelling forearms.

 

WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
Bike Erg: This is a moderate push-pace effort with a heavy emphasis on relaxing your upper body and grip. Slow down the final 100m to get your heart rate under control.

Sandbag Bear Hug Carry or Double Kettlebell Front Rack Carry: Unbroken should be the goal on all descending distances. Get some chalk and find a comfortable hold that allows you to breathe. Steady steps and rest in transition before and after the carry.

Handstand Walk: if you got it in you then unbroken is what we are looking for. Take an extra second before flipping up. If you can’t do unbroken, then just chip away at it and aim to finish in consistent chunks each set.

 

 

Mobility and Maintenance: Choose 1-2 Thoracic Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 5-10 minutes with them. Choose 1-2 Upper Extremity Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 5-10 minutes with them.

TARGET SCORE
Intended Workout RPE: 8.0 – 80% – moderate/high intensity
Target Time: sub 15 minutes
Time Cap 18 minutes

 

STIMULUS and GOALS
How to Pace: STEADY! This is a gritty mix of conditioning, gymnastics, and midline endurance. You can push the pace a little early on and then settle into a nice groove once you hit the GHD Sit Ups. From there you are just going to want to chip away at the movements and reps.

How it should Feel: GASSY and MUSCULAR ENDURANCE! This is a midline- and stamina-heavy workout with big demand on grip and muscular fatigue. Pace smart, stay efficient, and don’t redline too early!

 

WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
Ski/Row: The Ski/Row should be a steady, moderate effort, not a sprint. This should feel tough but sustainable, keeping your heart rate elevated but not spiking.

Box Jump: Smooth and steady , no rebounding and just focus on being explosive with little rest between reps.

Rope Climb: Big jump every time and focus on using the legs before the arms.

GHD Sit Up: Use this as the area to get your heart rate under control. Non-stop, but smooth and controlled with a slight pause at the top to breathe.

Wall Balls: Only area of the workout where you will likely have multiple breaks. Breathe through the motion and don’t get caught resting more than 15-seconds.

 

Mobility and Maintenance: Choose 1-2 Thoracic Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 5-10 minutes with them. Choose 1-2 Upper Extremity Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 5-10 minutes with them. Choose 2-3 Lower Extremity Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 10-12 minutes with them.

Nutrition Preparation: Ensure that you have quality foods prepared in the appropriate quantities to fuel your efforts for the remainder of the week.

Mental Restoration: Different for everyone – could be quiet time, prayer or meditation or could be gathering with friends; the key is to engage in activities that make your life full and help you recharge your batteries.
