The Moose Is Loose

I thought I’d share a workout I did today down at the local Crossfit Gym.

Warm Up:
Run or Row 100m @ 60% intensity
50 Jumping Jacks
Run or Row 100m @ 70%
40 Mountain Climbers
Run or Row 100m @ 80%
30 Air Squats
Run or Row 100m @ 90%
20 Push-Ups
Run or Row 100m @100%
10 Pull-Ups

Main Course:
100 Over-Head Squats (Rx’d @ 40kg) For Time

At the top of every minute do 3 burpees while the clock is still running and then with the remainder of the minute you will do as many squats as possible. Repeat until you reach 100 squat reps.

Dessert:
8 Sets of Tabata Rows 20 seconds on 10 seconds rest

“300”

for time:

25 pullups
50 deadlifts
50 pushups
50 box jumps
50 floor wipers
50 medicine ball cleans
25 pullups

10 pullups

75# DB deadlift, 5 reps

135# push press, 8 reps

Sometime this coming week, all sophomores must complete one of the following workouts—your choice. I would recommend the more advanced athletes go for the second option:

Option One: Helen
3 RFT:
400m run
21 kettlebell swings, 1.5/1 pood
12 pull-ups

Option Two: Cindy
As many rounds as possible in 20 minutes of:
5 pull-ups
10 push-ups
15 squats

Either post here or e-mail Mr.H. with which workout you did and your time.

In teams of four or five, divided approximately evenly between men and women:

Five stations, 2:30 at each station with 30 seconds rest between each, of:

Row (calories) + push-ups (two people rowing at a time, everyone else doing push-ups)
Pull-ups (band-assisted if necessary; no jumping pull-ups)
Medicine ball cleans (sophs: 30,25/15; frosh: 15/8)
Double-unders
Power cleans (sophs: 115/75; frosh: 95/65) – one men’s bar, one women’s bar

Total score = total number of reps completed; row = number of calories
In sophomore class, we multiplied the score for the teams of four by 5, and the teams of five by 4—except for the row, which score we multiplied by 4 for every team.

Tabata Row
Rest 1 minute
Tabata Squat
Rest 1 minute
Tabata Pull-up
Rest 1 minute
Tabata Push-up
Rest 1 minute
Tabata Sit-up

The Tabata interval is 20 seconds of work followed by 10 seconds of rest for 8 intervals.
Tabata score is the least number of reps performed in any of the eight intervals. Unit for the row is “calories.”

I did this one tonight. After taking a week off to finish a remodel and prepare for the big weekend, I needed some basic movements to ease back in…

SCORE: 6,20,10,9,10 = 55

My arms were smoked after the pullups; the pushups were extremely weak.
