At Home Conditioning

With a partner, alternating full rounds, complete as many rounds as possible in 25:00:

  • 75 Double Unders
  • 10 Thrusters
  • 20m Forward Crawl

Notes

Today’s workout is to be done with a virtual partner. Partner 1 will complete 50 double unders, 10 thrusters, and a 20m forward crawl, then rest while partner 2 completes the same. Each time one person completes a round, that counts as 1.

The double unders should take no more than :45-1:00. Adjust the number of reps or perform single unders to stay within this time domain. If you do not have a jump rope, perform jumping jacks or pogo jumps.

The thrusters may be done with one or two dumbbells or kettlebells, a barbell, or an odd object. Whatever weight you choose, they should not be heavy and always performed unbroken.

The forward crawl should be performed with hips low, unlike a bear crawl. If you do not have room for 20m, break the crawl up into smaller segments. For example crawl down 5m and back 5m twice.
