Saturday 6.23.12

Saturday workouts in CrossFit Football are traditionally not strength oriented and are usually circuits designed to challenge you physically in ways the basic lifts and movements we do during the week don't.  Today was definitely an example of that.

Warm Ups:
- 500m Row
- Various KB Power Snatches at incresing weights

Conditioning:
Complete 5 Rounds of the following using a 70 lbs Kettlebell:
-10 one arm KB Power Snatches - right
- Walk 50 yards w/ KB in overhead position - right
- 10 one arm KB Power Snatches - left
- Walk 50 yards w/ KB in overhead position - left
- Rest 1:00

I did this workout by walking 25 yards out and back each round. Shoulder and core stability started to get taxed in round 3. I started the timer but due to refereeing fights between my two young kids, and bathroom trips, etc it wasn't accurate. I'm estimating 3-4 minutes per round.  My strategy was to do 9 snatches, take a short break, then get the 10th snatch and go straight into the overhead walks.  That seemed to work well, and I probably could have attempted this workout with the 88 pounder.
