Front Squat - Metcon

Tuesday, August 19, 2025

Westbound CrossFit (Coach Rachel)

1630 (9 of us)

Warm Up

Row
Walking lunges
Walking groin stretch
No push-up burpees
Front Squat warm-up

Strength

Every 2:30 x 5 Sets:
 3 Front Squats @ 85–90%
 Keep consistent form under load.

I built up from 95-115-135-155-155 pounds (~75% of 1RM)

Conditioning

RXConditioning:
 2 Rounds for Time:
 30 Wall Balls (20/14)
 20 Burpees Over Rower (lateral)
 15/12 Cal Row
 Rest 3:00 between rounds
 Score = combined working time
Goal: 3:00–4:00 per round
 Cap per round: 6:00

Intermediate:
20 Wall Balls
15 Step-over burpees
12/9 Cal Row

Baseline:
15 Wall Balls (lighter)
10 Step-back burpees
9/6 Cal Row

I scaled to 15 wall balls (10#), 12 step-over burpees and 9 calorie row finishing in 3:49 + 4:03 = 7:53 working time.

This was a good little mover and emphasized that I need to do more burpees.  Maybe I will have to do EMOM style 4 burpees per minute for 20 minutes type of deal?
