Oct 9-15 WOD Insights

Monday

Happy Birthday Roy! For Part A Deadlifts are going to be with a 2 second pause. Rather than dropping from the top, let’s work on controlling on the way down.  Score is sum of weight lifted. For the Amrap, focus on breaking and taking it easy the first 2 rounds. Work on staying consistent each round, a good way to do this is to take a look at how long it is taking you to finish each round. Remember, don’t go out too hot!

“Roy’s Barbacoa Birthday WOD”

A.) Deadlift
3-3-3-3-3 with 2 second pause at bottom

B.) 10 minute AMRAP
10 Hang power cleans 95/65 115/75 135/95
1 Rope Climb (ADV 2) (Beefy 2 regional)
12 box jumps (beefy no step ups)

Tuesday 

During the Alternating EMOM, the focus is on QUALITY not QUANTITY. I’d rather see one really great hollow strict pull up vs. a bunch of broken half kipping pull ups. On the Pull ups, also remember controlling the eccentric motion down from the bar will help your pull up strength as well.

FGB style. This Fight Gone Bad Style doesn’t have a “REST” minute, rather, the 70m run should serve as an active recovery time.

A.) Alternating EMOM in 12 mins (push and pull)
EVEN: 1-8 push up, ring pushup, DB bench press, ring dips
ODD: 1-8 strict pull up, strict C2B, Bar MU

B.)
3 Rounds
FGB Style (1 minute of work @ ea, station) (no minute of rest)
Row Cals
Sit Ups (ADV T2B)
Front Squat 95/65 115/75 135/95
70m Run

*ADV & Beefy Swap Row and Front Squat.

Wednesday

This should be a 18-22 minute workout. Pace the Buy In. The reps are relatively small but remember, it’s 6 rounds so be sure you’re not going too HAM the first few rounds. This is another good workout to practice pacing.

Buy in: 600m Run (ADV & Beefy 800m)
6 rounds
6 push press 95/65 115/75 135/95
7 bar facing burpees
8 (ADV & Beefy 12) Barbell Lunges
Cash out: 600m row (ADV & Beef 800m)

*ADV & Beefy Flip Row and Run

Thursday

Alternating GOAT! Be thinking of some things you’d like to focus on during this time. Anything goes. If you  haven’t used the goal / swag board, maybe this is a good time to get something written up!

Part B should be pretty griptastic. One tip that helps save my grip BIG TIME on Farmers Carry is to use the hook grip! It’s pure gold.

A.) EMOM for 8 Minutes
Alternating GOAT (Anything Goes!)

B.) 4 Rounds
12 DB Snatch 45/25 (ADV. 55/35)  BEEF 15 @ 70/45 (ADV + Beefy = alternating)
70m Farmers Carry (1 KB + 1 DB)
7 Pull Ups (ADV. 5 C2B or 10 Pullups, or 2/1 Ring MU)  (BEEF 6/4 Ring MU)
200m Run

Friday

Back Squat’s are pretty straight forward. Once you’ve warmed up to your working weight, stay there for all 5 sets.

For Part B this is a really good workout to try to move to the next exercise with minimal rest. Try taking more rest or breaking up the reps more than you normally would do you can seamlessly move to the next exercise. Example: Rather than doing all Wall Balls unbroken, break them up into sets of 5 and then get right to work on your Sit ups or T2B.

Double Unders: These should take no more than 1 minute for Rx’d and ADV. Scale the reps or mix some single unders in there to keep the intensity up.
Wall Balls: Break up into small sets early. Set’s of 5-10 are a good idea with quick rest.
T2B: Yet another movement that is wise to break up early. I would recommend sets of 5, or up to 10 for those that can mash on t2b.
Burpees: Breath, find a rhythm and stay consistent

A.) Back Squat
7-7-7-7-7
(sets across)

B.)
Rx’d & ADV
2 rounds
25 double unders (ADV 40)
20 wall balls (ADV 25)
15 hanging knee raises or sit ups (ADV 20 T2B)
10 burpees (ADV 15)

BEEFY
100 double unders
50 wall balls
40 T2B
30 burpees

Saturday 

Breath during the thrusters, these should be light enough to do all in one set, but if you need to break it into two, that’s ok also. Pace the first 3 rounds, it’s better to have a little left in the tank toward the end than find out you’ve gone too hard on the rounds before.

3 rounds
10 thrusters 75/55 (95/65) (12 @ 115/75)
10 box jump overs  (BEEFY 12)

Sunday

The rounds on this should go pretty quick. Don’t leave your sled pushed until the last minute or you may be waiting in line for one. If you see one open, go for it!

7 rounds
10 KB swings 53/35 (ADV 70/44) (Beefy 70/53)
