With a partner, AMRAP 25
100-120 calories
90 wall balls
600m run
Notes
Today’s workout will be done with a partner and will consist of 100-120 calories, 90 wall balls, and a 600m run. You will get as many rounds of this as possible in 25 minutes.
The calories will be done OPWAAT style and should be completed in about 6 minutes or less. Switch partners often enough to maintain a high intensity. If you cannot reach at least 100 calories in 6 minutes, consider slightly reducing the target amount.
The wall balls will also be OPWAAT and should be done in sets of 10-15 before switching partners.
The runs will be completed together and shouldn’t take any more than 3-3:15. Reduce the distance if necessary.

Conditioning
15-12-9
toes to bar
burpees
x2 rounds, rest=work
15 minute cap
Notes
Today’s workout is a couplet of toes to bar and burpees. You will perform 15 reps of each movement, then 12 reps of each movement, then 9 reps of each movement. You will then rest for the same amount of time it took to complete this work before doing a second round through the whole thing. Your score is the total time it takes to complete both rounds, including the rest.
The toes to bar should be completed in no more than 3 sets per round. This means you should be able to get at least 5 reps at a time for multiple sets with short breaks. You may substitute straight leg raises, knee raises, v-ups, or sit ups.
You should be able to complete burpees at a pace of atleast 15 per minute. If you are significantly slower than that, consider slightly reducing the amount of burpee reps.

Frankenstein front squat 3-4 sets of 3-5 reps @ 31×1 tempo
3 wall bridge rotations per side between sets
Conditioning
4 rounds for max reps of:
1 minute of snatches
1 minute of rowing for calories
1 minute of dumbbell box step-ups
1 minute of rest
♀ 85-lb (38 kg) barbell, 35-lb (15 kg)
dumbbells, 20-inch box
♂ 135-lb (61 kg) barbell, 50-lb (22.5 kg)
dumbbells, 20-inch box
Notes
Today’s workout is Quarterfinals workout 24.1. You will spend 1 doing snatches, 1 minute rowing for calories, 1 minute doing dumbbell box steps ups, and 1 minute resting. You will go through these for four total rounds, with your score being the total number of reps completed across the entire workout. Write your scores down during the rest minutes so you can keep track.
If you cannot perform the Rx snatch weight for relatively quick singles, pick a moderate weight that you can repeat quick singles on. Do not do touch-and-go reps.
Row at a fast but repeatable pace that will prevent you from redlining
Try to go unbroken for the entire minute on the steps ups. If you cannot do this with the Rx weight, choose a moderate weight set of dumbbells that allows you to, though it should not necessarily feel “easy” (especially on the grip). If you need to set your dumbbells down, set them on the ground, not the box.

Teams of 3
400m burden run
8 sandbag clean relay
16 wall ball relay
100-120 calories*
400m burden run
90 pushups
120 jump squats
6:00 sandbag hold*
400m burden run
25 minute cap
Notes
Today’s workout will be done in teams of 3. You will start with a 400m burden run, followed by an 8 sandbag clean relay, a 16 wall ball relay, and 100-120 calories to be performed simultaneously. After completing all of this you will do another 400m run, followed by 90 push ups and 120 jump squats, with a simultaneous 6:00 sandbag hold. The workout finishes with a final 400m burden run. Your score is the time it takes to complete all of the work, or the amount of work you completed before the 25 minute time cap.
A burden run means your team will run together, sharing the burden of a sea bag carry throughout the run. You may switch which partner is carrying the sea bag as necessary. Don’t let 400m take more than 2:45. Reduce the distance if necessary.
A relay means one partner will complete all of the prescribed reps for a given movement before the next partner starts. So Partner 1 will do 8 sandbag cleans in a row, then partner 2 will do 8 sandbag cleans in a row, and finally partner 3 will do 8 sandbag cleans in a row. Then partner 1 will do 16 wall balls in a row, followed by partner 2, and then partner 3. While all of this is happening, teammates will rotate on and off of a single machine, working towards 100-120 calories.
The sandbag weight should be moderate-heavy. Go unbroken on the wall balls. Don’t take much more than 6:00 on the calories.
The pushups and jump squats will be OPWAAT. Switch partners as necessary. Choose a pushup variation that allows you to get 6-10 reps at a time before switching partners. Jump squats can be done in sets of 15-20. One person must be holding a sandbag for 6 consecutive minutes while the pushups and squats are completed. Switch partners as necessary.
