CrossFit AFK


5 rounds (Through the 15 reps, had about 12 seconds left on the clock. 12-ft rope climbs, so I did a small climb after the full climb. In round 3 I missed the top of the truss in the barn, so I did a little extra on the small climb for that round. The L-sit was pretty difficult, held the legs straight and feet together tight, but basically held my breath the whole ascent. Overhead squats were wobbly. The midline was pretty thrashed after the running and deadlift/sit-ups.)

Scaled to 2 legless rope climbs, from seated to 8 ft.  OHS as rx’d.  Got through the round of 18 OHS, plus rope climbs, plus 5/21 OHS reps.


Even with the scaling, I had to cheat here and there on the legless climbs when my grip fatigued.  Still, I’m happy I didn’t just dodge these; the grip work alone is killer.  OHS were unbroken through round of 15, then 12-6.  They felt pretty good, was glad to get through so much unbroken.  Left wrist and shoulder smarted a bit though.

Had to reset a couple of times due to cramping in the back of my left shoulder. Assume that’s not uncommon.

Couldn't maintain form on the L-sit climbs, specially on the descents.

Still a lot of back pain (butt hurt) from Monday's fall. Subbed like this:


8 L Pull-ups

+2x 1-arm dumbbell lunges, 33lbs, left arm (2-4-6- etc.)

+2x 1-arm dumbbell lunges, 33lbs, right arm

  • lunged backward for max balance, min back stress


6 round + 8 pull-ups + 4 lunges

= 56 L pull-ups + 46 left-arm + 42 right-arm

= 144 total reps

Haven't done OHS in forever, a yuge weakness for me as is. Chris'd this one the first few minutes. Started 3 weighted pull-ups (12lbs); 3 OHS (12lbs dumbbells). Did a few variations and ended with 3 weighted pull-ups (20lbs); 24 goblet squats (24kg KB)


Chris'd: when you try out different variations during the workout.
