4/22/19 Weekly WOD Review
Monday
Just wanted to take a moment to define the focus for each level in today’s finisher…
RxD: A majority of your focus should be on the quality of movement versus the overall intensity of the workout. With barbell movements being performed in a fatigued state, it becomes even more important to be aware of how you are moving. The reps are lower than the other levels in order for you to not feel “hurried”.
Adv: For those of you choosing to go with the Adv option, you should be more comfortable cycling a light barbell. Here you can give a bit more focus to intensity, but still being aware of your movement quality.
Beef: This is for those that have cycled a moderately heavy barbell in the past and comfortable with combining olympic lifts at a high heart rate. I know there are some out there that have cycled 115/75 before, but ask yourself if you can maintain quality of movement WHILE pushing yourselves during the workout.

Tuesday
Today’s workout is 21:00 of total work broken up into an interval-style format. There are subtle differences between all levels which vary between slightly more reps or a little heavier barbell. Wherever your fitness level may be, there is an option for you. As a reference, you should be able to complete 1 and a half rounds or more per set. If you are struggling to do so after the first set, please don’t hesitate to call an audible versus getting stuck at one movement.

Wednesday
Today I wanted to create a workout that incorporated low-complexity movements. The focus for all level should just be managing your heart rate and pushing your own pace a little bit! There is a bit more running than usual (1.5-2 miles) but it’s evened out by the relatively low volume of burpees and kb swings than most of you are used to. Come in and get a good sweat on with this workout.

Friday
The row will be a nice break for you to recharge yourselves during the AMRAP. Although it says it’s an 18:00 AMRAP, think of it more as a 15:00 – 14:00 AMRAP since for 3 or 4 minutes you guys will be rowing. If you can, try and keep track of how long each round takes you. Keeping track of your times per round is just a good way to get data on yourself and see when/where you begin to drop off or find somewhere you can pick up the pace next time!

1) Pressing Movement
2) Core Movement

Saturday
Cherry Picker’s Throwdown
Sunday
The overall volume for thrusters and burpees are relatively low across all levels (30-45 per movement). With that being said, pick a weight that you can hold onto for all reps or no more than 1 break each round. It’ll be over before you know it! Don’t forget about your rope climbs though. I recommend throwing them in somewhere towards the beginning of the workout if you’re fairly to to the movement, throw them in towards the end if you want a bit of a spice factor!

10 Thrusters 75/55 (15) (15 at 95/65)
