For weight.

Thruster

5 x 3 x 3 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 1 x 1 x 1 x 1.

Try and increase weight on each round through the sets of 2 in an effort to reach and maintain your 1 rep max on the last four rounds.

Post loads to comments.

If you have a 20lb med ball or a 53lb kettle bell, bring them to this workout so we can have max through put. First folks in go down to Hayes and get the big blue boxes for box jumps.

As many rounds as possible in 20 minutes of:

1 x 24"Box Jump
2 x 53lb Kettle bell swing
3 x 20lb Wall ball

Increase each exercise by one rep each round.

Example, round 2 is 2 x box jump, 3 x KB swing, 4 x wall ball. Round 3 is 3 x box jump, 4 x KB swing, 5 x wall ball etc...

For weight.

Clean and Jerk

1 x 1 x 1 x 1 x 1 x 1 x 1

You can use power clean or squat clean and you can use push jerk or split jerk. The bottom line is it is the same amount of work.

On a side note, I noticed a small decrease in numbers this morning. Don't fall into the trap of not coming in or else all of your work will be for nothing. You won't have the option of sleeping in once you are in the "real" Army, so don't start bad habits.

Additionally, we have also had a sharp decrease in posting. Again, do not let your ego get in the way of posting. Sometimes your workouts are strong and sometimes not but the posting serves as an online journal from which you can measure your performance. Measuring increased work capacity is one of the key elements of the CrossFit program. Bottom line, post your numbers.

Enough of my ranting.

3...2...1...Go!
