    WOD

    AMRAP in 20 Minutes

    5 Power Snatch 115/85 lb
    100M Run
    30 Double Unders

    Workout notes

    Today’s workout is a long duration triplet with two very difficult movements.  We have a moderately loaded power snatch and a set of 30 double unders every round.  Advanced athletes can try to perform the snatches in sets of 5 using the 100M run as a little bit of recovery prior to knocking out the double unders. If you are still working mastering double unders, scale the volume to a number of reps you can achieve in about 45-60 seconds.

    Skill

    Tabata knees to elbows

    For today’s skill work we’ll be attempting knees to elbows using the Tabata timer.  We’ll have 8 total rounds of 20 seconds on and 10 seconds off.  For most athletes that will mean trying to perform one set during every round.  We often have skill work like this on the minute timer so this should be quite a challenge as you will have two attempts every minute.  If you are new to kipping swings practice alternating between arch and hollow while hanging from the bar and eventually work on driving your knees up to your elbows.

    WOD

    10 Rounds of
    30 Seconds deadlifts 225/155 lb
    30 Seconds rest
    30 Seconds burpees
    30 Seconds rest

    Workout notes

    Today’s workout is an interval style workout with thirty seconds of work at two stations.  The total workout time is twenty minutes so even though we have short bursts of work remember that when are choosing your load for the deadlifts.  The potential is here for a large number of repetitions so limit the total volume and go easy early if you are new to CrossFit or either movement.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
