“Meter Maid” could be considered a shorter version of the CrossFit benchmark workout “Kelly”, which is 5 Rounds for time of a 400 Meter Run, 30 Wallballs, and 30 Box Jumps. The weight on the medicine ball should be something that athletes are confident in completing the first 27 repetitions unbroken if they needed to. Within the workout, these bigger sets will likely be broken up once or twice. If unable to run, complete one of the following:
250 Meter Row
20/14 Calorie Schwinn Bike
14/10 Calorie Assault Bike
Notes: Workout at Brandywine Y - used 20lb ball and 20-inch foam box. Did box jumps here - not step-ups. Wall balls were unbroken and box jumps were broken once each set. Row was done at 1:50/500m pace.

15:00 Recovery Assault Bike
On the 3:00, 6:00, 9:00 and 12:00: 15 abmat situps
Notes: Something to consider here is the pace of the first ride. Athletes should look to push the pace here, but at a speed that they are confident in immediately getting off the bike for an unbroken set of sit-ups. Look to empty the tank with whatever is left on the last bike interval knowing there is nothing to follow.
Held 250+ average watts across all intervals.

Reverse Annie
10-20-30-40-50 reps for time:
ab-mat situps
double unders
Notes: Annie was the first benchmark workout developed by the main site and it is a really fun one, but also quite challenging due to the intensity it should be performed at, and because of the high skill of the double under. The added challenge today is the rep scheme is reversed so the end of this workout will get really tough. On top of that, the movement pattern is flipped making the dubs a bit more od a challenge than they already are.
Scale the dubs as follows: lesser volume, pick an amount of time per corresponding volume to try and get as many as you can, or singles. If doing singles, double the volume each set.
Note: Timer was messed up after initial round although I was moving at a pretty good clip. I subbed heavy rope singles at 3:1 for double unders - I need to read more carefully as the sub was 2:1. No ab-mat since I was not at home so standard for situps was hands touch ground behind head and in front of feet at top of situp.

Barbell Conditioning
With a running clock…
A. At the 0:00
Complete 12 rounds of 1 Power Clean at 60% every 40 seconds (this set is 8 mins)
B. At the 12:00
Complete 12 rounds of 1 Power Snatch at 60% every 40 seconds (this set is 8 mins)
C. At the 24:00
Complete 4 rounds:
15 unbroken HSPU
A: 120 (200lb clean)
B: 95 (155lb snatch)
C: Was able to get rounds 1,2 & 4 unbroken. 3rd round was broken 9 & 6.
CashOut: 100 Band Pull-Aparts (red band)
Notes: The Power Cleans and Snatches listed below are part of a progression. Follow the designated percentages and time constraints exactly. These are not heavy lifts – they are fast. Olympic lifting is equal parts (1) Strength, (2) Technique, and (3) Speed. Use today to build the SPEED. Much like max-effort 10m sprints produce incredible speed even though they aren’t too taxing on your muscle or lungs, these lifts will do the same. Give them everything you have.

Bench press 3-3-3-3-3 reps
5 attempts at a max set of triple-unders
Bench press 3-3-3-3-3 reps
5 attempts at a max set of triple-unders
DB OHS: 45-55-65-75-85lbs.
Bench Press: 185-205-225-235-245lbs.
Subbed 5 mins of DU practice instead of the triples.
Notes: Start heavier on the OHS. Would try this again starting at 70lb. with goal of 100lb. for last set. I was able to snatch the DB from the ground pretty easily, even at 85lb. The bench was an easy set of 3 through the 235lb bar. I was arching my back on the last two reps at 245lb bar. The standard from 2018 Regionals Linda is that the athlete's feet must remain in contact with the floor and the athlete's glutes must remain in contact with the bench for the duration of the rep. With that standard, these were good reps.

5 rounds for time of:
1 sub-0:48 250m row
100 unbroken single unders
Notes: I scaled to sub-0:50 and 75 heavy rope singles. If the row takes longer than allotted time or if you trip up on your single unders, redo that segment before moving back to the other exercise. Due to time constraints, took a 5 burpee penalty to be paid at the end of the workout instead of redoing.
Row was 52.4, 51.7, 51.0, 51.6 and 52.5. Jump rope was unbroken each round -- should have stayed with 100 even with the heavy rope. I owed 25 burpees at the end of this workout #PayTheMan
