Wednesday 11/25 – FIGHT

When MMA athlete BJ Penn needed to up his conditioning for his fights he turned to CrossFit. Even though the coaching staff had never participated in the sport, they need what the demands of the sport were and created a format accordingly. They asked themselves rather than some footwork and feints what would it be like to actually work for the entirety of the 5:00-round?

After combining 5 different exercise stations and demanding maximum repetition throughout the CrossFit staff put BJ through the workout. At the end of it all they asked him how it felt. He said it was “like a fight gone bad“, and that’s where this staple workout protocol came from.

Fight Gone Weird

Maia and Kyle working some bell-held single-arm kettlebell Z-presses

There are standard movements with equipment in the CrossFit world at the moment. If you’re given a Dynamax medicine ball you assume you’ll be doing wall ball. A pair of dumbbells/kettlebells? Probably some variation of cleans. Low rings? Dips. Boxes? Good ol’ vanilla box jumps.

Today’s goal is to get weird and try some different movement patterns and standards than usual.

CrossFit WOD for Monday 12/30

3 rounds for max total reps:
1:00 med ball cleans, 30/20/10lbs
1:00 z-press, 2×35/25/15lbs
1:00 ring row
1:00 box jump overs, 24/20/16”
1:00 calorie bike/ski/row
1:00 rest

Post score to whiteboard.

Barbell Club

We’ve been in a weird Holiday schedule the past week, and we’ll have some funky timing this week as well. If possible, let’s use a 2:00 EMOM to establish a heavy double snatch and a heavy double clean!

Powerlifters you get a gimme: max out load on one lift, max out reps on another. If you choose one for lower-body, the other has to be an upper-body lift and visa versa.
