LBBR3 – 15.1 “Activated FRAN”

This WOD has been designed play to the strengths of the larger athletes and the small athletes.  Mass moves mass in the thruster, but the mass will be alittle harder to move in the bodyweight pull-up strength.  This may sway the final score.

 

Group A and B :

Group C : 

Part A. 6min to establish Part A. 6min to establish

2RM Thruster

+ Max unbroken set of Strict Pull-ups

Score = Thruster weight + (2x Number of Unbroken pull-ups)

example: 70kg Thruster and 15UB strict pull-ups = 70 + (2×15) = 100

Then take :60sec to set your weight for part B.

2RM Thruster

+ MAX chin over the bar hold

Score = Thruster weight + second of hold with chin over the bar

example: 50kg Thruster and :32sec above the bar = 50+32 = 82

*As soon as their chis is below the bar the rep is over.

Then take :60sec to set your weight for part B.

LBBR3 – 15.2 “Down & Back v2.0”

This WOD is very similar to the “Down and Back LBBR3 2014” workout.  A great mix of simple and effective CrossFit movements and a fair test of aerobic fitness.

Final score will be 180-140 =40.  10min + 40sec = 10:40
