CrossFit Workout - Monday 03/29/10

The Dirty Dozen

12 pushups
12 squats
12 sprint strokes on the C2 rower

12 rounds for time, Post time to Comments

This is a partner workout. Partner B rests while the Partner A does the 12/12/12 reps. Once Partner A finishes the 12th stroke on the rower Partner B starts the pushups. Partner A rests while Partner B finishes the 12/12/12, that ends round one. Time is called when Partner B finishes the 12th round. If you don't have a partner, you rest for any period you choose. It's recommended to rest as long as you worked during the previous round.



If you prefer to run outside instead, substitute the row for a 40 yard sprint each round. This wod is awesome done barefoot on a sandy beach.

Fast!  You can do 100 pushups, 125 box jumps and 175 squats, or 200 box jumps and 200 pushups, or do 10 reps of each until you hit 400, or you can do all 400 squats if you want, I don't care.

Crossfit Skill & Skill Work - Friday 3/05/10

We turn off the clock this week (except for the cool downs) and work on improving form and technique on a handfull of exercises.


Today's skill work: summo deadlift high pulls


10 reps and rest 2 minutes - 7 rounds

75-95lb men, 45-65lb women. Work to correct any core to extremity violations. The major fault is pulling too early with the arms.  Drive the weight upward with a powerful leg and hip extension, followed by an upward shoulder shrug and then and only then flex the elbows and pull the bar or kettlebell up under your chin. Quickly lower the bar while maintaining a neutral back, rinse and repeat.

Cool down: Turn the clock back on and do 300M row and 15 wall balls, 4 rounds for time. Cheers!

Warmup: CrossFit Warmup - 2 rounds, 12 reps each movement

Wednesday, March 3, 2010

Crossfit Skill Work - Thursday 3/04/10

We turn off the clock this week (except for the cool downs) and work on improving form and technique on a handfull of exercises.


front squats, 15 reps x 7
2-3 minutes rest between rounds


95lb men, 65lb women, scale weight down if needed


Work on perfect form for each rep, weight on heels throughout the entire movement, bar resting on the front of the delts with elbows out front and up high. Controlled decent and a powerful drive from the bottom up to full hip extension.


Warmup: 1 round of the CF Cleveland warmup plus 100 box jumps
Cool down: 100 mountain climbers, non-stop, for time...left and right equals one rep

Tuesday, March 2, 2010

Crossfit Skill & Skill Work - Wednesday 3/03/10

We turn off the clock this week (except for the cool downs) and work on improving form and technique on a handfull of exercises.


handstand pushups on paralletes, 5 reps with two spotters, rest 3 minutes, 5 to 7 rounds


Your head should break the plane of the parallete for each rep, spotters use as much assistance as needed for athlete to complete a full range of motion for all five reps. Advanced athletes should touch the top of their heads to the floor during each rep. Maintain a hollow body throughout the movement and keep your cervical spine aligned with your thoracic spine...that means don't arch your back and keep your back and neck in line -  do not look down at the floor!


Cool down: 100 situps, for time

Crossfit Skill Work - Tuesday 3/02/10

We turn off the clock this week (except for the cool downs) and work on improving form and technique on a handfull of exercises.

Concept 2 Rowing sprints - 100 meters, record fastest 500M pace achieved per sprint



Perform 1st 100m sprint without using any arm pull what so ever, only leg/hip extension and back pull followed by a 2nd 100m sprint using everything you have.
This equals one round. Rest for about one minute each round.


Repeat for a total of 10 rounds = 100M sprint with no arm pull + 100M all out row sprint

Record the lowest 500M pace attained per 'all out' sprint


The primary focus is on using the large muscle groups as much as possible, and maintaining a strict core-to-extremity movement pattern throughout the pull.  If you don't know what that means now, you will by the time you are finished with this WOD.



Warmup: CF Cleveland Warmup x 2 rounds
Cool down: 100 ball slams, for time. Keep your own time and record on the White Board.
