Crossfit Workout
Today’s workout was a fun one – running and barbell work.
4 Rounds of:
Sprint 250M
6x Hang Power Clean (155# Men / 95# Women)
3x Push Jerk/Press (155# Men / 95# Women)
My time was 6:12 using 77# for the HPC and PP.
Times for each round:
- :41 run / :40 weights
- :51 run / :37 weights
- :54 run / :50 weights
- :58 run / :41 weights
The first and third barbell sets were slower because I accidentally lowered the bar to a hang after the 6th rep and had to re-clean it before starting the presses. I’ll have to throw a little more weight on the bar next time, since I wasn’t having to dip much at all when catching the bar for the clean, and was doing straight push presses. Adding a little more weight will force me to shrug more explosively to get the bar up when cleaning, and make me catch the bar lower on the press. I’ll probably move up to at least 89# next time.
You have nicely explained the importance of crossfit workouts.
