100 Meter Run
50 Heavy Rope Double-Unders or 70 Double-Unders
10 Alternating Dumbbell Squat Snatches (70/50 lbs)
2 Handstand Obstacle Course Traverses or 100-Foot Handstand Walk

B.
Back Squat
*Set 1 – 5 reps @ 70% of 1-RM
*Set 2 – 3 reps @ 80%
*Set 3 – 1 rep @ 90%
*Set 4 – 10 reps @ 77%
Rest 2 minutes between sets

C.
“CrossFit Games Open Event 11.3”
Complete as many rounds and reps as possible in 5 minutes of:
Squat Clean (165/110 lbs)
Jerk (165/110 lbs)

Rest 10 minutes until the running clock reaches 15:00, and then…

D.
For time:
30 Calorie Row
30 Toes-To-Bar
30 Handstand Push-Ups*
30 Bar Muscle-Ups
30 Handstand Push-Ups
30 Toes-To-Bar
30 Calorie Row

*If you are not interested in competing in the Open or other online qualifiers, we would advise substituting the kipping handstand push-ups for 20 strict handstand push-ups – the pounding on your cervical spine isn’t worth the risk unless you’re preparing for the movement to be tested in competition.

E.
Four sets of:
30 second Chin-Over-Bar Hold
50-Foot Plate Pinch Walk (35/25 lbs)
100-Foot D-Ball or Sandbag Bear Hug Carry (HEAVY)
20 Reverse Hypers @ 40-45% of 1-RM Back Squat
Rest 2 minutes

*If you don’t have access to a reverse hyper please perform band pull-throughs.
*If you do not have access to a D-Ball or Sandbag please perform Double Kettlebell Front-Racked carry.

Decided to rest my knee some this week- it was sore after being on it all day at work and it was sore after I squatted and snatched on Wed. But, no pain at all when I worked out today! ? I made up some things from throughout the week…
Back squtats- 175/200/225/190. Felt awesome
Clean and jerk complex- 130/140/150 felt good too
Then conditioning from wed- 10:08 Rx and 10:17 Rx

Thanks Tino!! Hope your weekend is awesome!

C. Rx 15 rounds

A. 3 rounds. Assault runner and used the drag rope for the first time (just bought it). Liking it! DB squat snatches with 35, then 40s. Shoulder issue + mobility = 50s weren’t happening today. Practiced walking to the wall. Not sure what happened but I’ve felt like I’ve gotten worse on HS practice. B. 155/175/198/168 C. 25 rounds. Was really aiming for 30 but it wasn’t happening today. Just off and rested too long. Did 5 extra after the 5 mins. Honestly not sure why, maybe I anticipated that Part D wasn’t going to go well and wanted to… Read more »

B) 62/71/80kg then 10x68kg
C) 16 Squat Cleans + 15 Jerks @ 100lb (85%). My goal was 20 but it wasn’t happening today ?

How does it actually work by the C? I have to do 5’ amrap sqcl and then from 5-10’ amrap jerk from block or?
Just 5’ amrap squat clean and jerk together? 😀

One round includes a squat clean and a jerk. You must complete the squat clean before moving on to the jerk and you must complete the jerk before moving on to the next squat clean. If you miss a jerk you may power clean the bar to set up your jerk attempt. You will enter your result by the number of rounds completed, plus an additional squat clean if the final round is incomplete.
