Gorilla Get Overs

Out in the garage at about 10:30. My hips are feeling that 2+ miles of running I did yesterday.

Warm-up

  • 3:00 BikeErg (1,528m)
  • 80′ Lateral Monster Walks
  • 80′ Monster Walks
  • 10 Monster Squats

Strength

Overhead Squats

  • 6×45#
  • 6×75
  • 3×95
  • 3×115
  • 3×135
  • 3×155
  • 3×165
  • 3×175
  • 3×185

Got out the jerk blocks for these and I put on the belt starting with 115. My legs are tired from yesterday.

Conditioning

  • 50 cal BikeErg
  • 5 Rounds
    • 5 Power Cleans (135#)
    • 5 Burpee Box Get Overs (32″)
  • 40 cal BikeErg
  • 4 Rounds
    • 4 Power Cleans (155#)
    • 4 Burpee Box Get Overs (32″)
  • 30 cal BikeErg
  • 3 Rounds
    • 3 Power Cleans (185#)
    • 3 Burpee Box Get Overs (32″)

It was written for 30 inches, but with my jerk blocks, adding the extra 2″ top pieces widens out the space which felt better. Since they were get overs, we could use our hands, so I did something like this Gorilla version. Looking at the workout I was wondering if I could go unbroken. The first 5 rounds felt a little heavy, but I decided to try with the 4 rounds and I made it so when I got to 185 it was a challenge and I was pushing the page on the BBGO too. Tough workout, but it was fun to cycle a heavy barbell again. I finished in 20:30.
