Couldn't help myself today and I had a "cheat workout". Kevin, if you're reading this just stop reading now!!...
Was supposed to do another long strength training workout but I did a classic CrossFit beatdown instead. This is a workout called "Cassius Clay" that CrossFit Vancouver came up with several years ago. I have been wanting to try this forever it seems! So, here it is...
5 Rounds of...
3 Deadlifts @ 315#
3 Muscle-Ups
3 Squat Clean & Jerk @ 185#
2 15' Rope Climbs
1 Box Jump @ 36"
300M "Hill Climb" (I live in the flatlands so, I had to use my imagination and pretend I was running up a steep incline!
Time was 21:00. I definitely didn't feel like I crushed this one but my time was considerably better than the people in the YouTube video. In fairness, I had no hill to climb so that worked in my favor. I honestly didn't feel like this one was as bad as it sounded. Squat Cleans (not the Jerks) got tough because I suck at them but everything else was not much of a problem and I took little rest between reps. Muscle Up sets were all easy and unbroken and I was happy about that. I am starting to really favor the no hook grip/ginormous kip approach to Muscle-Ups!!
