YR3 WK23: WOD #1-3
I started off this last week with an older workout from Invictus, which was:
3 Rounds
10-Handstand Push Ups
15-Deadlifts (65% of 1RM)
20-Pull Ups
I used 210lbs for my deadlifts in this workout. Even when I was warming I did not feel comfortable with my technique or with deadlifting in general and it definitely effected me during this workout. Later in the workout my grip was pretty shot and...

YR3 WK22: WOD #2-4
The 2nd workout I did last week I started off with the Split Jerks:
Split Jerk
3-2-1-1-1
I wanted to work up to a new 1RM since my workout afterwards had heavy overhead anyway. So I started with 225lbs for 3, then I decided to go up to 240lbs but I just did that for a single rep. I then moved up to 250lbs and that was good, so I moved up to a new 1RM of 260lbs and I got that which was...

YR3 WK22: WOD #1
For my first workout of the week I decided to do two. The first one was from OPTs site which was:
6 Rounds
250m-Row
6-Burpees
The workout didn’t seem all that hard or intense and it looked like it was be a good fast rowing workout. But I forgot to take into account how sore my legs were from the previous days OHS workout. I probably should’ve decided on a pace that I wanted to go...

YR3 WK21: Workouts
My last week of break before school started with a workout from Crossfit Los Gatos
Hang Squat Snatch (115lbs)
Burpee Box Jumps (24”)
Pull Ups (C2B)
Rep Rounds of 10,8,6,4,2
Before starting the workout I wanted to do some heavy Hang Squat Snatches just to do some strength and technique work. I previously did a workout and found my 3RM for this was 165lbs, so I just wanted to work up to a...

YR3 WK20: WOD #1,2 & 3
This week I’ve been doing all of my training at Port Crossfit, which is owned by two of my HS friends. The cool thing is they follow a lot of the same training that I do in their Box, so this whole week we’ve been doing Invictus WODs. Monday started with:
Take 12-15 minutes to work on technique and build to a heavy, but not 1-RM, Split Jerk;
I went pretty easy with the jerks I knew...

YR3 WK19: WOD #3
The last workout I did last week was:
Nate (Modified)
2-Bar Muscle-Ups
4-Handstand Push Ups
8-KBS (75lbs DB)
I’m really good with Bar muscle ups so I knew that I was going to move quite easily with those. I knew eventually the HSPU were going to get really tough, but I was most worried about the KBS cause my back was shot from the previous days workout. Every time I do 2pood KBS I have...
