The Three Musketeers

A)  3 Sets of:

Max Rep Pull Ups
Rest 3 Minutes between sets

OR

Weighted Pull Ups – 5-3-1-1-1  (Go for a 1 rep max)
Rest as needed between sets

B)  15 minute AMRAP of:

1 – Deadlift
1 – Hang Power Clean
1 – Front Squat
1 – Split Jerk
5 – Barbell Roll Outs

(Prescribed Weight is 115# for Men 75# for Women – Scale accordingly!!).  Be sure to separate the movements for the first 10 rounds. If you have additional time left after completing 10 rounds you can combine the Deadlift, Hang Power Clean, and Front Squat into a Full Clean but keep the Split Jerk a separate movement throughout the 15 minutes.  Barbell rollouts are performed from the knees with arms extended and barbell touching the thigh.  Roll the barbell out with straight arms until your chest touches the floor, then roll the barbell back with straight arms until it re-touches your thighs.  This movement can be scaled by bending the arms when rolling the barbell back to your thighs.

Thanks to all 14 members that participated in the Mothers Club 5K this weekend (not pictured Dave Crescenzo and Matt Mull).  And congratulations to the age group winners, Angelica, Cindy, JT, and Kellie.  Way to kick ass!  Brittany’s Run is next on August 24th so get ready and save the date!

“CROSSFIT TOTAL”

Back Squat, 1 Rep
Shoulder Press, 1 Rep
Deadlift, 1 Rep

Copy and paste into your browser and Read this first! – http://library.crossfit.com/free/pdf/52-2006_CFTotal.pdf

You will get 3 attempts at your max weight at each of the three lifts in the order that they are listed.  Your CrossFit Total Score will be the the sum of your heaviest of each lift.

New members or those who have not done a significant amount of ‘heavy’ lifting at these three lifts are not ready to do 3 max lifts in one day and will be doing the following workout instead of the CrossFit Total:

5 Rounds For Time Of:

Run 400 Meters
15 – Box Jumps
15 – Wall Balls

Do not be upset if I suggest that you are not ready to do the CrossFit Total, as I am only concerned for the safety of everyone.  It takes some time getting used to heavy lifting to get enough strength not only in the muscles themselves, but in all the connective tissue and ligaments associated with each muscle group in order to safely attempt a maximum weight lift.  Also, if you cannot do a ‘full range of motion’ lift you are not ready to max out at that lift. A ‘quarter squat’ or a ‘three quarter squat’ is not a squat.  You have to be able to maintain good form with your hip crease getting below the top of your knee or you are not really doing a full ‘squat’.  In the shoulder press you can not use your legs or hips to get the bar started, and you must finish by locking the elbows out with the bar over the center of your feet.  Deadlifting with excessive ’rounding’ of the back will only increase your chances of injury to your lower back and is not worth the risk.  So ‘Don’t be stupid!’, ‘Don’t be greedy!’, and ‘Don’t be pig headed!’.
