Freddy's Revenge
For time.
5 rounds of:
5 x 185lb** overhead anyway (press, push press, push jerk, split jerk)
10 x Burpees
In this workout it it does not matter how you get the weight overhead but for the rep to be complete you must be locked out, with active shoulders, head through the window and hips open and legs fully extended. I'll demonstrate in the morning for those who are still unsure.
Burpees include a clap at the top, feet must leave the ground and also hips must be fully open before going to the next rep.
**Rx'd weight for Freddy's Revenge is actually 185lb. I copied it incorrectly on the initial post and put 155lb. Scale this as needed. Remember it is better to maintain intensity. This workout was designed by and for a very elite group of CrossFitters to include Jason Kalipa, the winner of the CF Games last year.**

As many rounds as it takes to complete 50 pull ups. Do as many pull ups as you can in a set, once you drop from the bar you must do 1 rope climb before starting next set. For example, you do 15 pull ups and drop from the bar. Then you do one rope climb. The next set you do 10 pull ups and drop for a total of 25. Then do one rope climb. Continue this until you have reached 50 total pull ups..

On this workout, you need to be constantly moving. If you are standing around looking at the weight, you need to scale down. If you are doing this in a big group, I recommend setting up a few bars. Set one at 155lb, 185lb, 205lb and maybe 225lb. Then pick which bar is closest to your weight. For example, I am 175lb. I may think I am a real fire breather and decide that I am going to go 10 pounds heavier or maybe 30. But on round 2 I'm doing 1 or 2 dead lifts at a time and it is taking me time to recover. In this case, I need to drop down to the 155lb bar and get after it. I will get more out of the workout by making my heart explode for 10 minutes than I will by continually putting the weight down. There is a place in CrossFit for heavy weights but an AMRAP is not it. Same goes for Dumb bell press. 35lb is the prescribed weight, if you have to scale down or go heavier then so be it. Just keep moving as fast as you can for 10 minutes. If you do not have cotton mouth at the end of this workout, you did not do it with enough intensity. That should the what is prescribed.
