This is the first time I have actually finished this work out without adding additional rest in.
The last two rounds, I did a slight kip for half the pull ups.

2:44, 2:54, 3:14, 3:13, 3:24, 3:18

If my math is correct, 18:42.

The TTB fell apart after the third round and the wall balls had me deciding to quit crossfit forever. But hey, I finished it.

As much as it sucks, you did great and really consistent throughout. I always crash at the end. Maybe next time.

Luke and I did this as a partner WOD- one person rests while the other one completes a whole round. It was still super hard.
Luke- 3:12/3:27/3:38/3:59/3:38/3:46
Anika- 3:47/4:09/3:47/4:26/4:35/4:20
Our 11 and 8-year-old did a scaled version, also as partners:
Charles- 3:05/2:38/2:40/3:17/4:05/2:45
Anja- 2:43/2:34/2:25/2:50/2:43/3:25

I hate this work out. Every time I’ve done it, it’s destroyed me. Not looking forward to it tonight! Blah! Amazing time BTW. The first time, I got 4 rounds in and gave up.

I hit that wall after 4. Then I said it’s only two more so I sucked it up

Needless to say…today was NOT my day! I was late getting into the gym and then in the warm up everything felt so tired…I should have just trusted my instinct and done something else…but NOOOOO..I had to be a tough girl. Would have been great to do this yesterday when well rested! A. 2:55 / 3:10 / 3:37 / 3:40 / 3:22 / 3:30 = 20:14 ***out of 9 times doing this it is my 3rd worst time! and 1:22 slower than in Feb. Nothing felt like it came together well! I know I can perform better than that! B.… Read more »

That’s 1:57 better than last time and a 1:37 PR. I crashed hard on the last round though! Super encouraging day for me though. Great work everyone!

Correct, 30 reps at each weight – try not to rack it until the set is complete…it burns. Nice job pushing through the suck today.

Warm up done…
Invictus baseline interval test:
had to sub 20# db thrusters for wallballs
3:10, 3:22, 3:40, 3:42, 3:55, 4:15
(My gymnastics suck! I didn’t anticipate the toll the strict PU and TTB would take.

Did some snatches after this in EMOM style for 10 minutes. Worked up to 150# which is a garage gym PR! Felt good. Getting better at staying engaged and punching out at the top.

Did my handstand progression program as well. Week 2 Day 1

Warmup done

A. Baseline test every 5 mins x6 sets
10 SPU’s
15 TTB
20 PU’s
25 WBS @8kg

2’03, 2’09, 2’12, 2’22, 2’29, 2’30
Total 13’45
1’44 quicker than 28/2
Not being able to go UB on the latter sets of TTB is the thing slowing this down now, grip strength certainly disappears quickly on this!

B. Travis’ core workout #9

Good morning all.. looks like maybe I picked the right time to hop back on the invictus train.. been picking my own lifts and wods for a bit. Ready for a bit more stability in programming!

As prescribed
1. 2:40
2. 3:05
3. 3:08
4. 3:35
5. 4:15
6. DNP
Wall balls were nemesis..

Am: 10x
10 assault bike cal
10 row cal
14.36
Hollow rock and plank: 3 min
P.m.
4 rds
10 strict pullup
15 ttb
20 pu
25 box step up 24 inch
2.14; 2.14; 2.07; 2.21

Had to modify wall balls and rounds because of hip pains.
By judging from other times i have done the real baselone test, this was comparable in time. Box step ups take a bit longer, but pushups were faster since not fatigued from the WBs
