All the plates are on the floor…

I would get in trouble if I put all the plates on the ground at my house.  Different kind of plates, I guess.  Whatever.  It’s fun to do something different.

But I digress… We did the Crossfit Total tonight (thus, all the plates on the floor).  The “Total” is the combined weight of your 1RM deadlift, back squat and shoulder press.  Simple barbell, flat feet, no fancy movements – and about as good as it gets for a straight-up strength metric.  I’m looking forward to testing it again in 6 months or so and seeing how everyone progresses.

And because I’m a jerk, I threw a METCON on at the end.  Because an hour wasn’t long enough.  Take that, social lives

I) Find: CrossFit Total (combined weight of 1RM deadlift, back squat and shoulder press)

II) 3 RFT

• 15x shoulder press (95/65)
• 30x sit-ups
• 15x overhead squat (95/65)
• 1 minute rest (mandatory)

Score:  deadlift + back squat + shoulder press = total / time
