Kettlebell hell

Went to the 10am class this morning expecting to set a new 1RM deadlift and then complete a brutal WOD with 40kg cleans, push press and front squats along with 30 DUs.

When I arrived the board had something different.. (Taken after the WOD).



A gentleman who lives above the gym has been complaining about the noise so barbell movements have had to be modified as a temporary measure.

Whilst initially disappointed that I wouldn't have a shot at a potential 3rd ever RX workout, I understand the position the gym is in, and believe it's good to sometimes do other workouts (the point of crossfit!), so went with it!

Nice practice on clean pulls with 3 second lowering, and then a kettlebell based WOD.

AMRAP 15min
28kg OH kettlebell swing x 5
20kg kettlebell push press x 5 each side
28kg kettlebell goblet squat x 5
30 double unders

4 rounds and 10 reps - exhausting but powered by my new favourite summer coffee - cold brew coffee.

Finished up with mobility and 5x5 of chest to bar pull-ups and ring dips.
