Strength

3 Rounds not for time

  • 6 Weighted Step Ups per leg
  • :20 Hollow Hold
  • 10 Arch Ups

Notes

Today’s strength is 3 rounds of step ups, hollow holds, and arch ups. Rest about 1 minute between each exercise.

The step ups should be at a height that places your hip crease slightly below your knee. Use a weight that allows you to reach full extension without any help from the other leg. Try not to push off the ground with the other leg as you step up.

Choose a variation of the hollow hold that allows you to keep your lower back in contact with the ground the entire time.

During the arch ups, keep your legs tight and straight. Lift the arms, extend the upper back, and lift the legs up off the ground.
