7 rounds for time:
2 lying-to-standing rope climbs
7 shoulder press
For the rope climb, the hardest version should be from the floor. Use stacked mats or a bench to "raise" the floor and make it easier. Chalk will help for grip. Use a barbell or pvc with weights for the shoulder press.
Record time, rope climb option, and loading to the comments.
Low-Carb, High-Fat Pancakes
Serves: 2 (makes about 6 small pancakes)
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes
Ingredients
2 large eggs
½ cup full-fat cottage cheese
¼ small ripe banana (about 25g, for subtle sweetness; use less for lower carbs)
2 tbsp oat flour (grind rolled oats in a blender; use sparingly for lower carbs)
½ tsp vanilla extract
1 tbsp almond butter (optional, for extra fat)
1 tbsp coconut oil (for cooking, adds fat)
Pinch of salt
Optional: ¼ tsp baking powder (for fluffier texture)
Instructions
Blend the batter: In a blender, combine eggs, cottage cheese, banana, oat flour, vanilla, salt, and almond butter (if using). Blend until smooth. If using baking powder, pulse it in briefly.
Heat the pan: Melt ½ tbsp coconut oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat.
Cook pancakes: Pour 2-3 tbsp of batter per pancake into the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes until bubbles form on the surface and edges set. Flip and cook for 1-2 minutes more. Add more coconut oil as needed for additional batches.
Serve: Enjoy warm with high-fat toppings like butter, whipped cream, or a sprinkle of crushed nuts (avoid syrup to keep carbs low).
