Workout:

This weekend is the Crossfit games and we have decided for the SB bootcamp to replicate the games workout and format, abiet modified timing and scaling of weights as an option.

Crossfit Games standards

The intent is for us each to do the following on the weekend:

Workout 1

Three rounds, 21-15- and 9 reps, for time of:
Thrusters @ 42kg
Pull-ups

and then within the hour complete

Workout 2

Five rounds for time of:
5 Deadlifts @ 125kg
10 Burpees

combine the times and post on the blog........

On Wednesday Bootcamp the format will be

Workout 3 in-lieu of the 750M steep uphill run

Start at the bottom of Kokoda, run up and touch the war memorial note time +
Jog back down to bottom of Kokoda +
Run up again touch the war memorial note time


Workout 4 (propose the undercover area at the womans memorial park)

30 x Clean/Squat/Jerk at 70% of body weight for time

It matters little on the final result compared to others in the group and no winner will be declared. The time will serve as a reference only to ones individual progress on this path of training.

part 2 (workout 3 & 4) was awesome but hard, hard, hard!

not sure if these times are correct (light headed for most of the session):

Kokoda run 1- 2:17
Kokoda run 2- 2:58
30 c&j @ 45kg- 6:14

second run was well slower, gassed out going up kokoda then again ascending the grassed hill toward the war memorial - damo smashed it. sore legs (calves, quads, glutes) after both runs.

c&j pretty mental, form was more akin to power clean, front squat, thruster rather than squat clean, jerk. tough going but i'm not unhappy with the time, 70kg is a massive amount of weight; damo did a helluva job eventually getting through 30. lvoe the power movements.

those guys in the cf games are absolute animals.
