06 Feb WOD – Thursday 6 February 2025

CROSSFITREST AND RECOVERY

PART A: WOD

 

Open 12.4
AMRAP in 12 minutes
150 Wall Ball Shots (10/9)
90 Double-Unders/ SU 180
30 Ring Muscle-Ups (BMU/ C2B)

 

TARGET SCORE
Intended Workout RPE: 9.5 – 95% – near max intensity
Target Reps: 255+
Minimum Reps before scaling: 100

 

STIMULUS and GOALS
How to Pace: STEADY into PAIN CAVE!!! The stimulus is moderate-push pace effort with strategic rep schemes to finish each section reasonably, allowing for constant work. Go hard on wall balls and double-unders but leave enough energy for muscle-ups. Check your old scores and try something new if you think it will get a better score.

How it should Feel: MUSCULAR ENDURANCE into PAIN!!!! All legs into all upper body and if you are lucky enough to make it through it, it starts all over again. Don’t stop moving!

 

WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
Wall Balls: The legs and shoulders will fatigue, but strategic breaking will keep you moving. Focus on breathing, My all-time favorite rep scheme for “Karen” (besides unbroken) is 18-17-16-15-14-13-12-11-10-9-8-7, but you have to keep the rest between sets around 5-8 seconds for it to be effective.

Double Under: You won’t know until you get here but take a deep breath and try to go unbroken or 2 quick sets.

Ring Muscle Up: Plan small, manageable sets from the start. Use a strong kip and maintain good technique, fatigue will make muscle-ups feel harder, so don’t rush the rest only to fail.

 

PART B: Strength & Skill

 

*Do a set every 3 minutes.

5 Sets
5 Deadlift + 30 Second Hold after last rep + 5 Deadlift @8-8.5/10 RPE
*Rest as needed in between sets.

 

 

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.

3 Sets (Squat Snatch)
1 Snatch @70-75% 1RM Snatch

 

3 Sets
1 Snatch @75-80% 1RM Snatch

*Don’t worry about hitting specific numbers, just hit a heavy stimulus!

No barbell option x AMRAP
x10 alt DB Snatches
30 sec AB

 

PART B: WOD

For Time:
1000m Row/ 980m Run/ 80/65 Cal AB)
100 GHD Sit Ups (OR 150 Abmat Sit Up)
1000m Row/ 980m Run/ 80/65 Cal AB)

 

TARGET SCORE
Intended Workout RPE: 8.0 – 80% – moderate/high intensity
Target Time: sub 12 minutes
Time Cap: 16 minutes

 

STIMULUS and GOALS
How to Pace: STEADY! We want to alternate between powerful efforts on the Bike Erg and a chip-away pace through the midline-dominant movement in GHD sit-ups. The workout challenges cardiovascular capacity, core endurance, and pacing strategy. Start off moving, but be cautious to avoid going into a cardio deficit early on.

How it should Feel: CARDIO and MUSCULAR ENDURANCE! Expect this workout to feel like a steady grind, with the GHD sit-ups acting as the breaking point for many athletes. Legs will be taxed from the Bike Erg, and transitioning back to the second 2000m will feel challenging due to midline fatigue.

 

WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
Bike erg: Effort is a controlled moderate-high paced effort (80-85%). You want to push the pace but avoid overexerting to keep your core fresh for the GHDs. Save some in the tank for the final bike and then attack.

GHD Sit Up: Smooth, steady pace across all these reps. Purposeful breathing at the top to keep a steady heart rate. Non-stop would be great; however, plan to take some breaks occasionally to avoid blowing up. Have a strategy here going into the workout!

 

 

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.

03 Feb WOD – Monday 3 February 2025

CROSSFITREST AND RECOVERY

PART A: WOD

 

21-15-9

Deadlift (100/70kg)
Bar Facing Burpee
-Rest 4min-

15-12-9
Hang Power Clean (70/50)
Burpee Box Jump Over/ Box Step Ups
-Rest 4min-

9-6-3
Thrusters (60/45)
Burpee Bar Muscle Up/ Burpee Pullups

 

TARGET SCORE
Intended Workout RPE: 8.5 – 85% – high intensity
Target Time each set: sub 5 minutes
Time Cap each set: 8 minutes

 

STIMULUS and GOALS
How to Pace: CHALLENGE! Each segment combines a barbell movement with a burpee variation, progressively increasing the complexity and intensity. The built-in 1:1 rest allows for partial recovery, but the workout is designed to feel challenging throughout. Don’t rush between movements, but aim for quick, controlled transitions to minimize downtime. Start steady in the earlier segments to save energy for the thrusters and bar muscle-ups.

How it should Feel: LACTIC ACID PARTY!! Grip, forearms, and legs will burn, and you’ll feel the need to slow down. Resist that urge and keep transitions sharp.

 

WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
Deadlift: Moderate-light load (under 65% 1RM). Most will need to break the deadlifts into 2-3 quick sets to prepare for future fatigue.

Hang Power Clean: Moderate to moderate/heavy weight where you can cycle efficiently in 1-2 sets. Don’t use over 65% 1RM Power Clean. Break into 2 sets to save your grip, if you think you may get fatigued on it heading into the next workout. Hook grip through each rep and relax the hands in the catch.

Thruster: Weight is moderate to moderate/heavy but we’d love for you to grind to stay unbroken across sets. Don’t use over 70% 1RM Thruster. Rest a little more between movements to hang on longer and focus on explosive hips.

Burpees: No matter the variation, the goal should be to move consistently and efficiently while being mindful of fatigue. If you push these too hard, it will put you at a deficit on the barbell. Be smooth on the first and second workout. Aim to find a rhythm you can keep for all 3 rounds in each workout. On the burpee bar muscle ups it will take longer but mentally you can push knowing the reps are much lower!

 

PART B: Strength & Skill

 

Wave 1
1 Power Clean @65% 1RM Power Clean
1 Power Clean @70% 1RM Power Clean
1 Power Clean @75% 1RM Power Clean

 

Wave 2

Wave 4
1 Power Clean @80% 1RM Power Clean
1 Power Clean @75% 1RM Power Clean
1 Power Clean @70% 1RM Power Clean

 

*Rest as needed between waves.
**These waves are all about perfect technique. Note how the percentages go down the last three sets. This is to work speed and fine tune technique to end with perfect sets.

 

 

 

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

-rest 4 minutes between each set-

 

TARGET SCORE
Intended Workout RPE: 7 – 70% – moderate intensity
Target Time each set: 4-5 minutes
Time Cap each set: 7 minutes

 

STIMULUS and GOALS
How to Pace: GRIND! Each round is long and steady, with consistent transitions between movements. The goal is to maintain a sustainable yet challenging pace throughout, while minimizing rest within each round. Actively recover during the 4-minute rest. Focus on slowing your breathing and resetting for the next round.

How it should Feel: GASSY into CARDIO! This is a mental grind. Your legs, shoulders, and grip will feel fatigued, but you should push through with small breaks to finish strong.

 

WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
Double Unders: Aim for unbroken sets or 2 quick sets if needed. Focus on relaxed wrists and steady breathing. Lay your jump rope down every time.

Wall Balls: Break early into manageable sets to avoid burnout. Maybe 2 sets of 10 with a quick break between. Breathe at the top of each rep, and stay smooth and consistent with your rhythm.

Dumbbell Snatch: I like unbroken with a purposeful pause at the top of each rep to breathe and keep the heart rate under control.

30 Jan WOD – Thursday 30 January 2025

CROSSFITREST AND RECOVERY

PART A: WOD

For Time
30-20-10
Deadlift (100/70kg)
Burpee Box Jump Over (24/20)

 

-Directly into-

 

20 Ring Muscle Ups/25BMU (or 40 Burpee Pull Ups)

 

TARGET SCORE
Intended Workout RPE: 9.5 – 95% – near max intensity
Target Time: sub 10 minutes
Time Cap: 15 minutes

 

STIMULUS and GOALS
How to Pace: STEADY into PAIN CAVE!!! Moderate-high intensity (80%+) into a grind, strategic effort on part 2. The overall challenge lies in maintaining consistent pacing through the first part while preserving grip and pulling capacity for the ring muscle-ups. Move quickly between movements but take a breath if needed to avoid rushing into poor mechanics. If the muscle-ups are a strength, push harder on the deadlifts and burpee box jump overs. If gymnastics is a weakness, conserve grip and pulling capacity by breaking the deadlifts into smaller sets.

How it should Feel: MUSCULAR ENDURANCE into PAIN!!!! It should feel like a full-body grind, where the first part taxes your engine, posterior chain, and lungs, while the second part demands precision, focus, and upper-body pulling strength under fatigue.

 

WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
Deadlift: Moderate weight (70%) but manageable. The weight should feel like something you can confidently cycle for small to moderate sets (6-10 reps), even under fatigue. Keep moving steadily without redlining your grip or lower back.

Burpee Box Jump Over: Move steadily and consistently. This is a “keep grinding” movement—don’t sprint, but don’t stop. Your legs will feel heavy from the deadlifts, so it’ll challenge your ability to stay efficient under fatigue.

Ring Muscle Up: Expect the first few reps to feel heavy and require focus to get into a rhythm. Stick to small, manageable sets to avoid grip failure (5+ reps).
— or Burpee Pull Up

 

PART B: Strength & Skill

*Do a set every 3 minutes.

 

5 Sets
1 Front Squat (as heavy as possible)

 

*This structure can look a couple of different ways:
1. Build in weight each set. Start light and practice BIG jumps.
2. Do a couple of warm up sets (not a lot, we want low volume here) and then hit all 5 singles at the same, challenging weight.
3. Start light and stay conservative with the loading (stay around 75-80%) if legs aren’t feeling great.

 

 

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 Time minutes 11-20: sub 50 seconds
Time Cap minutes 11-20: 55 seconds

 

STIMULUS and GOALS
How to Pace: STEADY! Solid barbell cycling work today as you come out with a moderate-high intensity on smooth and methodical sets. The purpose of this session is to help improve bar path, cycling capacity, leg conditioning, and efficiency to help cut down on time under tension during barbell and capacity on rowing

How it should Feel: GASSY and MUSCULAR ENDURANCE!! Choose your weight wisely, or you will fail miserably during the rest. Focus on controlling your heart rate.

 

WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
Cycling Power Clean + Jerk: Weight needs to be moderate where you can keep unbroken sets across. Focus on being smooth and methodical rather than going as fast as possible and getting sloppy.

Row: Pacing needs to be aggressive (80%+), not a sprint by any means, but a respectable pace that is repeatable across sets. The goal should be to finish around 40 seconds consistently. Remember to stand up and shake out during the break.

 

 

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: 85 – 85% – high intensity
Target Time each set: sub 1 minute 15 seconds
Time Cap each set: 1 minute 30 seconds

 

STIMULUS and GOALS
How to Pace: CHALLENGE! Work fast to complete the work before the next 2:00 mark. Start with a moderately challenging pace and increases to a gritty, high-intensity effort by the later rounds as the weights get heavier. Stay consistent and aim to finish each 2 minute segment with 15-30 seconds to rest and prepare for the next round.

How it should Feel: MUSCULAR ENDURANCE and GRIND! Grip and grit today as your upper body gets pulled around while the lower half tries to fight the lactic acid build.

 

WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
Overhead Walking Lunge: The weight here should be light and allow for 20m unbroken sets. Stay active with your shoulders and keep moving to cut down on time under tension.

Front Rack Walking Lunge: Weight here gets heavier, but still should allow for unbroken sets. Find that comfortable hold, breathe through the motion and stay moving.

Farmers Carry Walking Lunge: This is the heaviest weight, but the easiest hold. If you can go unbroken without frying the legs then go for it. If not, break at the 10m mark for a quick rest.

Rope Climb: Big jump every time and use the legs before the arms. Aim to complete 1 rep every 10-20 seconds.
