Another early post for all you 5am-ers!

SWOD:
Front Squat 3rm

Metcon:
"21's"
For Time:
20 double unders and 1 abmat sit up
19 double unders and 2 abmat sit ups
18 double unders and 3 abmat sit ups
17 double unders and 4 abmat sit ups
so on and so forth until...
1 double unders and 20 abmat sit ups

Workout Tips: If this is your first time with front squats, there's no need to push the weight. This will challenge your core and force you to stay upright. If you need a weightlifting belt for your heavier sets, bring one. I know I will! Belts are generally discouraged as we want to develop our core strength, but if you're pushing max weight, the last few sets may require it. Avoiding injury should be priority number 1!

For the metcon portion, each round has 21 combined reps in it, hence the name. If you get tired, rest. Half reps do not count, neither do missed double unders! This will be 210 reps of each movement. If you need to scale, start at 15 double unders and 1 sit up, or 12 double unders and 1 sit up. If you can't do double unders, do 3 single jumps for every 1 double under.

Post front squat max weight, metcon time, and if scaled or not to the comments section! bc

  2. Ok 5 and 6 am-ers (especially Fathia and Danyel), Thanks for your patience with me with the rocky start this morning and all the counting and making me think. Dave needs to be the score keeper all the time, it went smoother then.

  8. Awesome morning!! Started with front squats 3x5: 185, 205, 225, 245, 255x2 (couldn’t hack the third rep).

    For the metcon…20 Double unders 1 Sit up, 19 Double unders 2 Sit ups, all the way to 1 and 20…nothing but fun! Trying to bang out the double unders was hard at first but then once I found my rhythm it was a walk in the park.

    Everyone in the 0530 and the 0600 slots did a great job! Especially Dave who was ahead of me in the metcon for a great 1 round for 1 round!

    Double unders came one at a time. I got a couple of two at a time.

    Yes its true I smoked Kyle in the begining. Its the old bull Vs Young bull dealo. But, more important is that Prey was a no-show again. I'm really begining to feel guilty that beating him so badly last time that he's given up. Prey come back I'll let you win (once)

  20. Front Squats: 55, 60, 65, 70
    METCON: the math got very confusing at 5am and I have no idea what my time is!

    I got a great workout and battle scars to prove it. My shoulders are bruised from the bar doing my first front squats ever! I don't know if that is good or bad?? But it was a good workout nonetheless.
