IN TEAMS OF 2 YOU WILL COMPLETE

5 ROUNDS (EACH ROUND IS 5 MINUTES W/1 MIN REST)

100 Double Unders

AMRAP for remainder of time

  • Run 200 m
  • Max Rep K.B. Snatch

REST 1 MIN

So, each round will start with teams doing 100 double unders.  Once they have completed this buy in, they will complete as many rounds as possible of the run and K.B. Snatches.  During the AMRAP one person will one while the other racks up the reps, then they switch when the runner gets back.

We got a late start on the Mobility WOD Series.  During the weekend work through these to get caught up.  On Monday we will start with the most current WOD.  For those who are not doing Yoga, you may really need this.  For those who are going Yoga, this will give you something to do on the off days.

Warm up extra- 10:00 in deep squat (see video below)

Shoulder Press 3×5 (80%)

AMRAP in 12 min

As of right now, we’re following Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WODs.  The prescription is a short (& sweet!) mobility session every day.  Goals include improved performance, better recovery, and injury prevention/rehabilitation.  Our expectation is that happier tissues and joints make for a happier and healthier you!  Plan on committing no more than 10 minutes of your busy life to this cause every day.  I see it as the perfect way to start your day when you show up to the gym.  Challenge your range of motion but remember that pain is not gain.   Day 1 starts with the video below and we’ll be following KStar’s blog from here on out.
