CrossFit Open WOD 15.4



90 REPS

Workout 15.4

Complete as many reps as possible in 8 minutes of:
3 handstand push-ups
3 cleans
6 handstand push-ups
3 cleans
9 handstand push-ups
3 cleans
12 handstand push-ups
6 cleans
15 handstand push-ups
6 cleans
18 handstand push-ups
6 cleans
21 handstand push-ups
9 cleans
Etc., adding 3 reps to the handstand push-up each round, and 3 reps to the clean every 3 rounds.
Men clean 185 lb.
Women clean 125 lb.

Notes
Prior to starting this workout each athlete will need to stand against the wall and measure and mark their foot line for the handstand push-ups (details to the left). At the call of “3-2-1 … go,” the athlete will kick up into a handstand and perform handstand push-ups. Once 3 handstand push-up reps are complete they will move to the barbell for 3 cleans, then back to the wall for 6 handstand push-ups, then 3 cleans, etc. Each round, the number of repetitions of the handstand push-ups will increase by 3. After every 3 rounds, the number of clean reps will increase by 3. Athletes will continue following this pattern for as many reps as possible within the 8 minutes.
Your score will be the total number of repetitions completed before the 8-minute time cap.

Work on your handstand

The most commonly seen handstand pushup is the version facing away from the wall. However, when done incorrectly, this teaches an overextended back position and an incorrect pushup position. The first piece of any handstand progression is developing a hollow body position where you are able to maintain a neutral spine. (hollow rocks anyone?)  Once you can can maintain a neutral spine while on the ground, it is time to start practicing the hollow position while inverted.

Headstand to a Push-up


Shoulders should be actively extended, shoulder angle should be completely open and body should be hollow. As you push into the HSPU, allow your shoulders to shift forward of your hands and let your legs counterbalance this motion. Remember to keep your elbows in.
