Weekly WOD insights 6/8/20

Monday 

If Burpees aren’t your strong suit, I would advocate doing the down up. It will still give you a good cardio stimulus without the limitation of pressing strength. The finisher should be short and sweet. You should be bel to hit it at a good intensity with the 2 minute rest.

 

A.) 8 Minute time cap 
30 Dumbbell snatches 45/25 (50/35) or 20 Barbell Snatches 75/55

Tuesday 
I know a lot of you are limited by equipment so I wanted to give you lots of options in hopes that you do have something available to you guys. For Part B try to be fast about getting into and out of your static holds. The faster you are in and out of those, the faster you can get through the conditioning. If you have a dumbbell and feel funky doing the dumbbell swing, you can opt for dumbbbell snatches if you did not do yesterdays workout.

 

A.) 6 Minute alternating EMOM
1- 8-10 ea side single arm dumbbell press or Z press
2- 6-12 Trx rows/ Ring rows/ Pull ups/ Barbell rows/ Banded rowDumbbell high pull

14 Russian Kb swing or Single arm DB swing
15 Air Squat

 

*Starting at 0 and every 1:30 after that, perform a :20s static midline hold*

 

Static midline options (progressing in difficulty)
Forearm plank

 

Wednesday 
One thing I have done in my training for a while is blending some more strict, lifting movements into a met con. It’s a nice way to change things up and add in a differnet element to your conditioning. That being said you still want to take a more controlled approach with the row movements.

 

18 Minute amrap 
5 Down ups or Burpees

8 Bent over Dual DB rows or 8 ea side bent over single arm row 

15 Double unders or 45 singles or 10 Lateral Hops over object

2 snatches or Cleans
-Rest 3 minutes after last set-
B.) Snatch or Clean singles

Thursday 
Wanted to work in a bit of interval training so we got some interval work for the cardio. Push yourself but but do keep in mind you do have a separate part B! For the single DB squat clean you can bring the dumbbell down between your feet. If you opt for the KB squat cleans you do not have to go all the way back to the ground, just down to the hips like a KB swing.

 

A.) 6 rounds 
200m Run or 250m Row
-Rest 1 minute between rounds-

 

*Rest 2 minutes before starting B*

 

B.) 14-12-10-8-6-4-2
Sit ups (Single leg v-ups) (Tuck ups or V-ups)

 

Friday 
A couple single leg strength options for you guys to to choose from. I personally like the skater squats, especially if you are restricted in terms of equipment. They are also a great way to build up to a pistol if that is a personal goal. For the amrap you can do a heavier overhead carry than you normally do for other movements. If you have access to a heavier DB or KB don’t be afraid to give it a shot!

 

A.) Alternate every 90 seconds for 6 sets total (7:30) 
1- 6-10 ea side DB split squat/ Counterbalance skater squatsBulgarian Split Squats
2- :40s-1min static midline

 

B.) 12 Minute Amrap 
12 Box jumps or 20 lateral hops or 20 Double unders
30 Russian Twists
100 ft (50 ft ea arm) Single arm DB or Kb overhead carry or Barbell overhead carry

Strength option 
Build from last weeks loads if you did these movements 

 

A1.) Barbell Strict press 
3x 5 reps

 

A2.) Bent over barbell row 
3x 8 reps

 

3x 8-10 ea side

 

Kea is opting for a nice lunchbox carry here. Never be afraid to get creative with your training, especially during these times!

Saturday 
With a lot of us not having a Barbell or lots of equipment available we usually don’t get to do workouts that involve cycling movements but I think this workout is a great way to get some of that in. You can even do a single Dumbbell version, and it it will still be very effective.
