Note: Weather is supposed to arrive early in the morning.  Check here to see if we are at code red before you head into the gym.

CrossFit Friday

Warrior Athletes,
Very, soon you cadets will be responsbile for planning workouts for your platoons. Here’s a WOD to keep in your back pocket for such an occasion. All it requires is a ruck, an IBA, some weight and pull-ups bars. That being said, bring the first three things and we will supply the pull-up bars. Men, pack 45lbs into your ruck, ladies, 25lbs.
A rucked-up symphony of two movements in two parts (plus a bonus):

Starting in the ’62 room
Part 1 – “G.I. Fran” (wearing an IBA)
21-15-9 reps of:
Rucksack Thrusters (45/25 lbs)
Pull-ups

Rest approximately 3 minutes

In the 4th floor gym
Part 2 – “The Buddy Dragging Club” (Wearing IBA and ruck, with a buddy of similar weight)
As a pair, complete 4 laps of the 4th floor gym with buddy drags (alternate as needed)
In between each round complete 10 push-ups each still wearing the rucksack.

If you dare complete the Bonus Round
Part 3 – “Flip, Push, Carry, Drop. Repeat.” (Wearing IBA, start in the basement)
3 rounds of:
5 Handstand Push-ups
500m run (basement to 4th floor gym loop, wearing rucksack)

25 Wall balls (20/14)
25 Sit-ups
