| Not just a pretty face - Jessica Ennis, winner of 2012 Olympic Heptathlon |
5 Rounds for time
3 Power Snatches - 135
5 Box Jumps holding 12kg kettlebells - 24 inches
7 Handstand Pushups
Time: 11:57
GHD Situps - 3x10
I liked that one too it was fun, it seems my snatches were strongest at the beginning (duh) and at the end, the middle struggled a bit but I avoided pressouts by the end. The box jumps holding the weights is a brande new way to do that exercise. It definately adds a new component to it, they were obviously much tougher than box jumps would typically be at that height. The handstand pushups were broken after round 2, I wonder if that one will ever not be a weakness....freakin long ass frame. Fun workout though!
Round 1 and 5 can be seen here.

Looks like Canada had a golden day at the Olympics yesterday, too. You came first on the trampoline. And yes, I'm laughing while I type this.
ReplyDeleteBox jumps with kettlebells; is this something I have to look forward to?
hah potentially, it forced me to go slower, 24 inches was still kind of low, but it was a nice challenge.
