W.O.D. 7.30.16

Today is the Annual King and Queen of Prussia, we will not be hosting any regular classes. Spectators and friends and family are welcome to come by to cheer on the athletes.

Our regular class schedule will resume on Sunday 7/31.

WOD 1: “Rampage”

To attain the throne, the members of the court will encounter many trials and tribulations. All will fall but those that are worthy will get up the fastest. The first test of the future royalty is as follows:

50 Deadlifts

21-15-9
Box Jumps
Bar Facing Burpees

50 Deadlifts

For this challenge, there will be a 10 minute time cap. Each rep not completed will add another second to the final time. Lords will lift 135# and leap to a 24” box while Ladies will lift 95# and leap to a 20” box. 

WOD 2: “Bring Out Your Dead”

In the aftermath of the first battle, the kingdom will be in ruins. Before the coronation, the land must be cleared. In the second test of fitness, each member of the court will transfer 1000# of weight down the gym and back. As the field will be covered in dead bodies, the Lords and Ladies may only carry one item at a time. The winner will be determined by how much weight has been returned to the original pile before the time expires. The time limit will be announced at the King and Queen.

WOD 3: “Ascension to the Throne”

As the dust settles, a new dawn arises. Many are distraught but a few are still determined to make their houses proud. Word has spread throughout the kingdom of a document being found in the castle that details how the new King and Queen must be identified. Excited to find out what it is, those that think they are worth rush to the castle, but not without difficulty….
