Well, a 40 Minute AMRAP huh, well ummmm okay!!!

I knew this was going to suck before I started mainly because I have never did a 40 Minute AMRAP and was not sure how to pace this if I needed to.  the following is the movements that I did as I had to replace a couple due to equipment.

165 LB or 75 KG Squat Clean Thruster
70 LB or 31.18 DB Farmers Carry (each arm)
Double Unders
DB Push Press
Double Unders
Burpees
Pull-Ups
Run.

Completed almost three rounds as I was at running when the 40 minute mark came. I think what slowed me down the most was the Squat Clean Thrusters and the Burpees. My 1RM on Clean and Jerk at the moment is 225 so it's just under 75% of my Max really and well I just suck at Burpees or I just need to mentally get through them more than physically. Either way, I was somewhat satisfied with the results. But do wonder what I would have got if I had the right equipment as I like tire flips!!

I kept the rep and distance format the same as prescribed on RAW if you are wondering. Can't wait tell tomorrow to try the Relay part of the METCON, should be fun!!!


Hope everybody in the RAW and CrossFit family is well and keep up all the good work.

thanks
Greg.
