Last time I did Linda I did it with Power Cleans in 24:25 which is much easier so I am really happy with my time today.
Then:
Help move my ex out of my house: 1 hour 30 minutes…this was a PR for sure!!!
Melissa, thanks for the idea on using the plyo boxes as a bench. I noticed they interfere with your elbows a little, but otherwise looked like a great solution.
Jakub, only 1.5 minutes longer for full squat cleans is definitely an improvement. I guess you definitely had some motivation to get through with your second WOD as quickly as possible. I bet you hope that WOD doesn’t come around again for a while.
As Rx’d 25:12, body weight = 168 lb
DL: 250 lb, BP: 165 lb, C: 125 lb
Sure thing. Most men will have an easier time with the plyo boxes in place of a bench since they have wider shoulder frames, but it works in a pinch. Make sure to put a cloth over the edges of the sides of the box or you will get a nasty burn on the insides of your upper arm.
Jakub… I am highly impressed with your second WOD of the day… that will be a PR hopefully for awhile 🙂
Everyone did really well yesterday on the WOD!!!
Did a home workout:
4 rounds for time:
20 – Deadlift pullups (kettle bell 20lb)
20 – American Kettle bell swings 20lbs
20 – situps without securing my feet
400m run
Time:19:57 — goal was to keep it under 20 mins — barely made it!
35:45
155lb deadlift
115lb bench
75lb squat clean
The cleans were tough because my legs were still weak from the walking lunges, and I had to take a lot of breaks. I feel like that was a good weight, but I could have moved faster with fresh legs.
