Strength

Back Squat @ 12X1

  • x 4 x 4 sets @ RPE 7

Strength Notes

Today’s strength is back squats. Every rep will be performed with a :01 descent and :02 pause in the bottom. You will pause at the top for :01 between reps. Warm up to a weight that leaves you feeling like you could have performed 3 more reps when you finish your first set. You will use that weight for all 4 working sets.

Conditioning

3 Rounds

Complete as many reps as possible in 4:00:

  • 20 Step Ups (50/35, 24″/20″)
  • 60 Double Unders
  • 20 Goblet Squats
  • 60 Double Unders

Rest 4:00

Conditioning Notes

Today’s workout consists of 3 time priority intervals with 4:00 rest in between each. The goal is to stay consistent in your score across all 3 rounds.

The step ups are performed with one dumbbell and you may hold it however you want. You must alternate the leg that steps up each rep. It should be light and 20 reps unbroken should be no problem with the weight you choose.

The double unders should be unbroken and take no longer than :40 each set.

The goblet squats will be performed with the same dumbbell with which you perform your step ups. It should also be light and 20 reps should always be performed unbroken.

0730 Endurance

Every 12:00 for 4 rounds:

  • 50/40 Calorie Bike
  • 400m run
  • 50/40 Calorie Row

Notes

Today’s endurance workout is 4 intervals of biking, running, and rowing. You will start a new interval every 12:00. The goal is to get at least 2 minutes rest between intervals. If the bike, run, or row take longer than about 3:00-3:30 each, adjust the number of calories or distance down. These efforts should feel very repeatable.

The burpee box jump overs will be completed with one person working at a time. You will alternate every 5 reps. Continue until each athlete has completed 4 sets of 5 reps.

1b) Supinated Strict Pull Ups

  • x 6-10 x 4 sets

Strength Notes

Today’s strength is strict press and strict pull ups. You will alternate between the two exercises for 4 working sets. You may rest as needed between exercises.

For the strict press, warm up to a weight that leaves you feeling like could have completed a few more reps after your first working set. You will use that same weight for all 4 working sets.

The strict pull ups are completed with an underhand grip. Use bands or perform ring rows if you cannot complete 6-10 reps.

Conditioning

3 Sets

Complete as many reps as possible in 3:00:

  • 3 Shoulder to Overhead (115/75)
  • 3 Toes to Bar

Continue to add 3 reps every round.

Rest 3:00 between sets.

Conditioning Notes

Today’s workout consists of 3 time priority intervals. You will begin with 3 reps of shoulder to overhead and toes to bar. The next round you will complete 6 reps of each, then 9 reps of each, and continue to add 3 reps every round. You will reset back to 3 for each new interval.

The shoulder to overhead should be at a weight that allows you to complete the set of 12 unbroken. Adjust the weight accordingly.

The toes to bar should also be unbroken through the set of 12. You may perform knee raises or leg raises in order to accomplish this.
