"31 Heroes"

AMRAP (with a Partner) in 31 minutes

8 Thrusters (155/105 lb)

6 Rope Climbs (15 ft)

11 Box Jumps (30/24 in)

Partner 1 performs the workout listed above. Partner 2 runs 400 meters with a sandbag (45/25). When Partner 2 returns from the run, Partner 1 will grab the sandbag, and begin their 400 meter run, while Partner 2 continues the workout where Partner 1 left off. Mark a round completed following the 11 box jumps. This is an AMRAP workout so score is total rounds and reps at the end of 31 minutes.

The box is on the higher side and the weight on the thruster is on the heavier side. The barbell should be a weight that athletes are able to complete 8+ repetitions unbroken when fresh, but will likely have to break-up into two sets during the workout.

Saturdays at CrossFit Pittsburgh

CrossFit Pittsburgh Grinder PT

The definition of "Grinder" is the concrete-asphalt area at BUD/S where the students do their calisthenics workouts. It is surrounded by Pull-up bars, Dip bars and the Instructor's, Training Officer, and Commanding Officer's offices.

You have the constant feeling of always being watched while you are on the "Grinder." So, put out hard, count loud, and cheer your class through the workout.

AND DON'T CHEAT!
