WOD
"Freddy's Revenge"
5 rnds for time of;
85kg Overhead Anyhow, 5 reps (Can be pressed, push pressed, jerked, split jerked)
Burpees, 10 reps
Time: 12.15mins
This WOD was on the CFJ the other day. It was a video article with some of CrossFit's fire breathers hitting it up. CrossFit Games winner Jason Khalipa did it in 5mins and change and Freddy C of CrossFit One World finished in a bit over 11 mins.
I knew this would be tough as 85kg is 85% of my jerk 1RM and a touch over bodyweight and I suck at burpees!
I wasn't let down. It was bloody tough and after banging out the first set of 5 jerks and burpees in pretty quick time, I was reduced to doing the jerks as singles. Getting it overhead was ok. Lowering under control was the tough part! I just couldn't manage to lower it into a position that would enabled me to bang out another one without using up all my energy.
I taped it so after I download it and play around with it a bit, I'll see if I can post it.
