"AIR FORCE" CrossFit WOD -

The classic CrossFit "AIR FORCE" benchmark WOD: wodwell.com/wod...

This is a workout where it's easy to look at the burpees and think "oh, it's just four of them." But after a few rounds, when those burpees start eating up 20-25 seconds of your 1-minute round, it doesn't leave much time for the barbell work. Max and Greg were pretty neck and neck all the way through, even though they broke the reps up differently. Max was flying on the front squats at the end and pulled away for a fast finish, then Greg mis-counted* and accidentally another full minute to his time.
*Actually, both athletes mis-counted at least once or twice during the workout. This is the kind of workout where it's helpful if you have someone else counting for you.

The flop at the end is the most understood movement in all of crossfit...i felt your pain my friends!!

[@wodwell]

Haha shared language of the flop

[@joshsuarez1852]

People don't realize how hard this workout is, the volume is insane

[@garethlewis9180]

I started crossfit 6 weeks ago I tried this today with a 10kg olympic bar and x2 15kg discs either side so 40kg in total. This took me 29 mins to complete and I had to reduce the weight with the overhead squats. I was dead at the end, I've got a long way to go, but I love it

[@wodwell]

6 weeks in! Good stuff. Smart of you to scale the weights down when you needed to. This will be a great benchmark for you to re-test in the future. 🏋️‍♂️

[@liljohnnotbigjohn]

hats off to Greg for finishing! I hate losing count >.

[@wodwell]

Totally! This is a tough WOD to keep your own count on. Every minute you're keeping track of the four burpees while trying not to lose track of your other movement count.

[@sc00ts]

I just did this one on Monday. 15:34, thought I was gonna die! 😵🏋

[@wodwell]

Nice work not dying!

[@blackcat7588]

[@wilneliarivera3722]

red shirt guy. those are some weird sumo deadlift high pulls! lol

[@maxcantube]

yeah.. i had no idea how poorly I was doing those until I saw this video

[@sezerarslan604]

I appreciate your video and hard work! I only can tell that, those burpees and some of SDHP looks no rep.

[@ThePerfectWorkoutShow]

ooh, looks like a good one!

[@user-cd2kn9gx6t]

Классный wod

[@dabcorp]

most if not all of the push jerks don't look like push jerk. it's more like push press. just a small detail

[@thanktheuniverse9438]

Great workout... The old 'breathe' advice / cajoling 😂... No, you know what, I think I'll just hold my breath... 🙄

[@wodwell]

Wouldn’t want you to forget!

[@delgadojh61]

Where u guys at I've been waiting for another video for so fucking long

[@wodwell]

Haha, next video is coming this month. With four more already scheduled after that. Not able to do new vids as frequently as we used to right now but definitely committed to keeping them coming.

[@paulbrown3259]

11:57 but can’t do overhead squats so substituted back squats

[@wodwell]

👊 Good sub. Overhead mobility issues?

[@bigbadwolf200335]

What makes these weights and bar add up to 95lb

[@bhiei]

I tried this this morning very hard, are you guys using 95pounds?

[@wodwell]

95 lb yes - tough workout!

[@wagner27william54]

The guy in the red has poor thoracic mobility

[@maxcantube]

no argument but i'm working on it

[@a_fuckin_spacemarine7514]

I can no do overhead squats.

[@SabineW]

Someone please tell Max he needs to get his elbows high instead of his wrists with SDHP

[@maxcantube]

yeah.. mentioned above. I had no idea how ugly mine were until I saw the video.

[@entrepreneurworldwide]

how much total weight on those bars?

[@wodwell]

95 lb bar for "AIR FORCE". There's also a 135 lb version of this workout called "TOP GUN": wodwell.com/wod/top-gun/

[@Gojimaru]

those aborpees

[@zaka0001]

All these guys moaning about max cantor and his form, atleast hes working not eating chips

[@carlosronachumacero6835]

muy lentos

[@rayraymartineziii]

😲😱

[@sickhorror]

The execuiton really sucks guys, you're putting speed over a good form, you look so bad

[@wodwell]

That’s awesome that you’ve developed an eye for quality of movement. It definitely matters. Thanks for pointing that out. 👊

[@sickhorror]

@@wodwell anytime guys =)

[@2inverse469]

Max's form is NOT good sadly.

[@adamaleto3857]

5:33 my time, I basically threw up afterwards!

[@jreither]

That is a really solid time. How'd you partition the work?

[@adamaleto3857]

Jeremy Reither uh go as fast as possible and do all sets unbroken, little to no rest.. finish thrusters in first minute and also did 9 sdhp before burpees, finished the sdhp and started on pp in second minute, third minute I finished ohs and rested for 10 sec that's were I went wrong, I should've done a couple FS before the 4th minute of burpees, did 18 front squats before my legs couldn't push anymore so I fell backwards then had to do 4 more burpees on the 5th minute and finish with 2 FS.

[@OLLITEALE]

Video proof or it didn't happen.
