A “chipper” is a longer workout, typically one round for time, that you just “chip away” at. Some say it’s a workout that, at the end, makes you feel like you feel like you were fed through a chipper. This is a scaled-down version of a mainsite chipper:

For time:
20 Wall ball shots, 15/8
20 Sit-ups
20 Box jump, 24/20″ box
20 Push-ups
20 Double-unders
20 Thrusters, 35/15 lb dumbbells
20 Pull-ups
20 Kettlebell swings, 1.5/1 pood
20 Dips
20 Burpees
20 Walking lunge steps
20 Knees to elbows

In-class GWOD:
3 rounds for quality:
10 Strict handstand push-ups on wall (progression: Use AbMats)
10 L-hang pull-ups (progressions: curled legs; strict pull-ups; with bands)

 

Team WOD: Watch and Burn
In teams of 4, complete (in any order):
50 dips
50 knees-to-elbows
50 front squats 95/65
50 box jumps

On each team, only one person can be doing these reps at a time, and their reps only count while the other three team members are doing the following: 1) bottom-to-bottom air squats, rep for rep (rest at bottom); 2) hollow body hold; 3) holding a plate overhead (45/25). Team members can switch out however they want, but again, the reps only count while all three of the other things are happening.
At end, team must run as a group from the field house to the road between the field house and the soccer field and back, with two team members carrying a third by the hands and ankles, like a stretcher. Swap out as necessary.
