Conditioning
Teams of 2, 5 rounds for time
50 calories
20 power cleans
15 synchro high five burpees
*30 minute cap*
Notes
The team workout this Saturday will be done in teams of 2. Calories and power cleans will be done opwaat style (one person working at a time) and the burpees will be done synchro with your partner. Your score is the time it takes to complete all five rounds, or work completed at the 25 minute cap.
Calories should be completed at a pace of at least 12/minute. If this pace sounds overly aggressive for you and your partner, consider lowering the calories to 40-45.
The power clean weight can be moderate. You should switch with your partner every 1-3 reps.
You will synchronize your burpees by being on the ground at the same time and giving a high five with your teammate at the top. These burpees should not take any longer than about 1:30 or so. If this pace sounds unsustainable across 5 rounds, consider lowering the burpees to 12 or so.

Strength
Cyclist Squat
3-4 working sets of 6-8 @ 31×1
Notes
Build to a working weight and then perform all 3-4 sets at that weight. Aim to reach 8 reps on each set. If you are able to do that this week then you may go heavier next week.
Conditioning
Every 3:00 x 5 rounds
18 wall balls
12-15 calories
9 toe to bar
*2:30 cap each round*
Notes
Today’s metcon is five intervals of wall balls, calories, and toe to bar. You will start a new round every 3:00, and each round will be capped at 2:30. Your score will be your slowest round.
Choose a weight on the wall balls that allows you to remain unbroken throughout the workout.
Calories should take no longer than about a minute or so. If this sounds unsustainable for 5 rounds, consider lowering the calories to 10-12.
Toe to bar should be done in 1-2 sets. You may substitute hanging knee raises, leg raises, or sit ups if you’re unable to hang from the pull up bar.

Strength
Handstand push up
3-4 sets of 3-5 reps at 31×1
*Do 6-8 challenging ring rows between sets
Notes
These should be done at a harder variation than last month. You can also perform slow negatives at a harder variation if that is necessary. For negatives do 1-2 reps at a time as slow as possible
Conditioning
3 sets
10 dumbbell snatch
50 ft single arm overhead walking lunge
15-18 calories
Rest 2:00
Notes
The workout today is three sets of dumbbell snatch, single arm overhead walking lunge, and calories. You will rest 2:00 after each round. Your score is your slowest round.
The dumbbell snatch should be moderately heavy, and aim to complete the reps unbroken.
The single arm overhead walking lunges will be completed with your dumbbell. You will complete 25 feet with your right hand, and the next 25 feet with your left hand. If you cannot maintain a safe overhead position, you will complete your lunges as single arm front rack instead.
The calories should take no longer than about 1:10 or so. These can be done at a higher intensity since you will be resting for two minutes after.

Conditioning
AMRAP 25, with a partner
100 calories
75 box step overs (body weight)
50 burpee box jump overs
25 synchro DB thrusters
Notes
The workout today will be done with a partner. All movements will be opwaat (one person working at a time) except the dumbbell thrusters, which will be synchro. Your score will be the rounds and reps completed in the twenty five minutes.
Calories should be done at a pace of at least 12-15/minute. If this pace sounds aggressive for you and you partner, consider decreasing the calories to 85.
Box step overs will be done with no extra weight. Consider switching reps with your partner every 8-12 reps or so.
Burpee box jump overs should be done at a pace of at least 10/minute or so. If this pace sounds overly ambitious for your team, consider lowering the reps to 40, or complete 50 regular burpees.
Your dumbbell thrusters with synchro with your partner. This means that you will both be locked out at the top of the rep at the same time, and be in the bottom of your squat at the same time. Choose a weight that allows you to complete the 25 thrusters in no more than 3 sets.

Notes
Build to a working weight and then perform all 3-4 sets at that weight. Aim to reach 8 reps on each set. If you are able to do that this week then you may go heavier next week.
