I hate overhead squats with a passion. It’s just something about them that destroy me. But, knowing my weakness I have been working hard to improve. This people is why I love crossfit one day you are kicking ass the next crossfit is kicking your ass. It’s a beautiful thing. Recently I saw a young gentleman destroyed by thrusters couldn’t finish the workout struggled with every rep the following day was double unders and sit ups he destroyed it – beautiful.
So my birthday workout was as follows….
Special round……. 2 minutes double unders, 1 minute handstand push ups, 1 minute deadlifts @ 135lbs. Each rep got you 1 second off your finish time. I gave everything in the bonus round. 15 handstand push ups and 34 deadlifts where I let myself down was with double unders…. yes my other weakness.
21 Overhead squats
21 burpee pull ups
row 500m
15 overhead squats
15 burpee pull ups
row 500m
9 overhead squats
9 burpee pull ups
It was a great workout and I was glad I got to work out with my lunch time class.
