400m sandwich met con

400m run
15 - 10 - 5:
Kettlebell swings (20 kg)
Push-ups
Pull-ups
400m run

Rx'd was 24 kg swings, and 25# dumbbell thrusters instead of push-ups. I'd like to do this one again.

Jerk 1rm, met con

Worked up to a 125# jerk, but it was messy (press-out). Need to work on getting my front foot farther forward on the split stance, and toe straight ahead instead of turned in.

Met con:
1 min double-unders
1 min pull-ups
45 seconds of each
30 seconds of each
Total reps: 131

Lame met con. I'm jealous of Scott's CFE WOD this morning
800m- 400m - 200m run
18 -15 - 12 Fight Gone Bad exercises
(Wall ball, sumo DLHP, box jump, push press, row)

Maybe I'll his this tomorrow...

Cindy-ish + thrusters

On the minute for 10 minutes:
3 pull-ups
6 push-ups
9 air squats
Thrusters until the minute is up (65#): 10 - 3 - 3 - 4 - 4 - 4 - 4 - 3 - 4 - 3

42 thrusters total (Score is 65# x 42 = 2730#)

Putting the bar next to the pull-up rack would have improved my score significantly!

Couldn't finish the last set of double-unders - my right calf got injured. My 3rd set was unbroken though!

Back squat, running, c&j

Part 1: Back squat 5 x 3.

Part 2: 4 x 400m run, 2 min rests
1:30 - 1:30 - 1:27 - 1:28

Part 3: 3 x 10 clean & jerks (95#), 2 min rests

I really liked this WOD. I rested maybe 10 minutes between each part?
