Notes: This is an interval version of CrossFit Open workout 11.5 which was a continuous 18 minute AMRAP. Why split it into intervals? The intervals allow you to play around with different pacing/strategy and the rest breaks give you an “out” if you get it wrong. My suggestion is that you hit the 6 min. interval as though you were working for 18 min. continuously and see how you feel by the 6th minute. If you get it wrong and go out too hard, you at least have a rest break after 6 minutes to sort it out and if you go too easy you can learn from this and find ways to pick it up in the latter intervals.

7.00am
This session will be run as an indoor/outdoor obstacle course/circuit.
AMRAP in 30 min:
Run from back door to hill (between gym and bridge)
10 x Hill Run (1 = up & down)
30 Box Jumps/Step-ups (under bridge)
10 x Hill Run

Confused? It will all make sense when you get to the gym in the morning – should be a good fun session.

EMOM x 8:
Burpee Box Jump Over 24/20″

Russian Swing 32/24kg

Notes: You get to choose the reps for this one with rx’d being dependent on maintaining those reps for each round (with full range of motion and prescribed weights/heights of course). For example, if you choose 10 wall ball, then you need to do 10 each round for rx’d. You can pick a different number for each movement but it must be maintained. If you fail to maintain your chosen number, your lowest reps in any given round will be your score for that movement.

“Gwen”
Clean & Jerk 15-12-9 reps
*Touch and go at floor only. Even a re-grip off the floor is a foul. No dumping. Use same load for each set. Rest as needed between sets.

Notes: This is one of those workouts where people look at the whiteboard and say “is that it?” – this is where I get a big smile and start to rub my hands together. Let me assure you, if you do this right you will not feel ripped off. I have programmed this workout with barbell cycling in mind, which means getting used to hanging on to the bar when you really want to dump it and experimenting with ways to be efficient at linking reps together. While we want you to go “heavy”, don’t go too far and turn this into a test of whose got freakish levels forearm endurance. The load should cause you to have to pause several times per set but not to the extent where you’re losing the training effect of barbell cycling.

*Check out the demo video – not exactly how I want you to hit it but an impressive effort regardless.
