This short interval means we’re going fast! Try to get as close to all out as you can during each work period and then do your best to recover during your 45 seconds off.

Workout of the Day

AMRAP in 15 minutes
21 toes to bar
12 burpee box step overs

Spend some time going over toes to bar before the workout starts to decide on the best scaling option for yourself. You’ll want to make sure to choose something that allows you to keep moving through the toes to bar reps even when fatigued. We’ll be stepping up and over our boxes today to complete each burpee so choose a height here that feels manageable!

standard: knees to chest, 20/20″

Sklll

EMOM for 10 Minutes
1 power clean + 3 front squats

We’ll spend 10 minutes today working up to a heavy front squat complex by working from the floor and starting with a power clean. If you’ve really dialed in your squat the power clean should be the limiting factor. Remember to reset your hands and feet if needed after the power clean to set your self up for a successful set of squats.

Workout of the Day

6 Rounds of 1 minute at each station
row for calories
two-arm dumbbell push press
rest

Today’s workout has us working in partners in order to share rowers and possibly the dumbbells as well. When it comes to choosing your dumbbell weight remember that we’re working with a pair of them so the difficultly level will increase significantly on an already difficult movement. Use a pair light enough that you can work through the minute in large sets!

Skill

12x30s
Straight set of kipping pull-ups

Spend a few minutes today working on kipping pull-ups. We’ll use a 30-second timer to work through twelve rounds of pull-ups. Ideally, you’ll be working for only a portion of each interval on a single set, and then you’ll spend the remaining time resting. If kipping pul-ups are new to you, then this is a perfect opportunity to work on the skill. Practice swinging between hollow and arch before generating some vertical momentum to drive yourself up. At the top of the pull-up, push away from the bar to start your next rep.

Workout of the Day

AMRAP in 15 minutes
21 air-squats
15 box jumps
9 deadlifts

15 minutes on the clock for this triplet. The workout is fairly long, so you’ll need to pay special attention to the weight you load up on the barbell to be sure it’s one you can move confidently for the entire workout. Remember to keep your back straight and break up each set as you need to.

EMOM for 10 minutes
1 slow pull power clean + power clean

In today’s skill work, we have a two-rep barbell complex with two variants on a power clean. On your first lift, pull the bar in a slow and controlled fashion until the bar passes your knees, and then accelerate through to the catch position. On your second rep, go at full speed but make sure your hips and shoulders rise together during the first pull.

Workout of the Day

AMRAP in 12 minutes
9 kettlebell swings
6 push-ups

Remember you can scale the difficulty of swings by adjusting the height of your kettlebell swing end postion as well as the weight of the object itself. When it comes. to push-ups, use a box to elevate the floor or go from your knees.

Workout of the Day

10 right arm overhead walking lunge
20 sit-ups

20 burpees at 0:00, 4:00, 8:00, 12:00 and 16:00

You’ll be working for 20 minutes today. You’ve got a couplet of 20 overhead walking lunges and sit-ups that will be scored by the total number of rounds and reps you get across the entire workout. To spice things up a bit we have a 20 burpee buy in every 4 minutes for a total of 5 times. Ideally you complete all 20 reps in under 2 minutes so scale the volume if needed. When it comes to the lunges you can scale by holding the dumbbell goblet style or ditch it completely if needed.

Workout of the Day

1 minute of air assault bike for calories
1 minute of double unders
1 minute of power snatches
2 minutes of air assault bike for calories
2 minutes of double unders
2 minutes of power snatches
3 minutes of air assault bike for calories
3 minutes of double unders
3 minutes of power snatches

We’ll be working for a total of 18 minutes in today’s workout, spending an equal amount of time at each of three stations. If the class is large we’ll partner up and rotate through stations so everyone can get equal time in on the bike. When it comes to power snatches use a weight light enough that you can perform mostly touch and go snatches. Break up your reps as you need to but just be sure you aren’t going so heavy that single reps are your only option.

rx: 50/35 lb, 20/14 lb
sport: 65/45 lb, 30/20 lb

You will work for one minute each at two stations and rest for one minute for seven total rounds. The medicine ball weight you choose should be a familiar one. Use a weight light enough for you to work for most of the minute with 2-3 large sets. Two-arm dumbbell cleans can be tricky and definitely more difficult that their barbell counterpart at the same weight. Spend some time familiarizing yourself with the movement and select a pair of dumbbells that you can move efficiently. For common sizes we may want to partner up by sharing dumbbells and alternating stations.

Skill

EMOM for 10 minutes
[odd] Straight set of strict pull-ups
[even] Straight set of ring push-ups

Spend ten minutes today working on some isolated upper body strength. On the odd minutes knock out a straight set of strict pull-ups. If breaking up the set spend about 20 seconds working and leave most of the minute for rest. Using the same rep scheme you’ll perform ring push-ups with the rings lowered near the floor. Scale to knee push-ups or push ups on the floor.

Workout of the Day

3 rounds for time
400m run
21 Kettlebell Swings
21 Box Jumps

~ 18 minute time cap

Today’s workout is a three round triplet of some classic movements. Use a kettlebell weight light enough that you can knock out all 21 reps in 2-3 sets. The box jump volume is also high so practice a steady cadence of jumping up an stepping down under control rather that trying to sprint through the round.

1 squat clean + 1 front squat

Use ten minutes today to work on a difficult two rep barbell complex. You’ll have ten opportunities to complete a squat clean and front squat without setting the bar down. Remember to aggressively open the hips and immediately drive your elbows up while dropping under the bar. Plant your heels and keep the elbows up as you complete the front squat.

weighted step ups
6 alternating devil press after every round

Today’s workout features an ascending ladder of weighted step ups followed up with 6 devil press after every round. Consider both the step up and the devil press when choosing your weight. Your box height should be low enough that you can maintain an upright torso during the step up. Avoid going so heavy in weight or so high of a box that you need to jump up or collapse into a squat to complete the rep. In the end your score will be the number of step ups in your last completed round plus any step ups and devil press in an incomplete round.
