Double Met-con
#1
3 rounds for time of:
10 Dead-lifts @ 315/220
10 DB Push Press @ 50/35
If you can't go prescribed, a good place to start is 70% of your 1RM dead-lift
rest 5 to 10 minutes
#2
3 rounds for time of:
Bear Crawl 20 meters (approx. 9 mats and back)
30 Double Unders
5 Granny Toss Wall Balls, 20#/14#
For bear crawls, you must get your entire body across the turnaround line and finish line before beginning the double unders.
For granny toss wall balls, take the med-ball from the floor behind the marked lines and toss it to a spot on the wall above the red, ten-foot wall ball line with an underhand throw. It must hit the wall above the red line and be executed with an underhand throw from behind (the ball behind) the marked lines for the rep to count.
There is a 7 minute cut-off for both workouts.
Post time for both workouts to comments.
What if we still had to dead-lift in that kind of attire? Nevertheless, a massive lift.
5:56 Rx'd for second metcon. DU's weren't very good; several misses before getting any in a row and never got more than 15 in a row during any rounds.
Great job 6 a.m. once again!
Metcon #1 - 5:10 @ 230#/50#. I broke up the last round of push press 7/3, everything else was unbroken, I just took too much time between each exercise to catch my breath.
Metcon #2 - 6:06 rx'd. I could not for the life of me string together any double unders today. It didn't help that the rope I was using kept coiling up tighter than a boa constrictor, and the stupid $#&^ing bear crawls only made things worse, but bottom line is I just didn't have it today and I didn't like this metcon at all.
Nice job 6am.
dnf not rx'd. if 10' could only be 9'11" I would have been rx'd. damn. great job 4:30! danielle, you are a beast!
5:46 rxd this one was fun
5:22 for the second. This one felt much better, probably only because my double unders are pretty consistent (only one miss).
Big class today at 5:30!
#2 6:16? rxd
After the first one, I was sure I was going to hurl. Spent most of the rest time going back and forth to the bathroom. The second one felt pretty good, but the bear crawls were SLOW in order to maintain control of my stomach contents. Still wasn't feeling well enough until a couple hours after. Hungry Addi = Cranky Addi.
