Crossfit in 100 words

Eat meat and vegetables, nuts and seeds, some fruit, little starch, and no sugar. Keep intake levels that will support exercise but not body fat. Practice and train major lifts: deadlift, clean, squat, presses, c&j, and snatch. Similarly, master the basics of gymnastics: pull-ups, dips, rope climb, push-ups, sit-ups, presses to handstand, pirouettes, flips, splits, and holds. Bike, run, swim, row, etc..hard and fast. Five or six days per week mix these elements in as many combinations and patterns as creativity will allow. Routine is the enemy. Keep workouts short and intense. Regularly learn and play new sports

A.
Three sets for times of:
15 Chest-to-Bar Pull-Ups
50 Double-Unders
Rest 3-4 minutes

(These are sprint sets, you’re going to have to be quick as well as unbroken to give yourself an edge on other athletes . . . this is your chance to practice how to do that when the workout includes elements that most athletes can do unbroken. Are there ways you can speed up your pull-ups or double-unders without losing rhythm if you are required to do so in competition?)

B.
Complete as many rounds and reps as possible in 20 minutes of:
4 Muscle-Ups
8 Handstand Push-Ups
16 Kettlebell Swings (32/24 kg)

L-Sit x Max Hold
Rest as needed
