Workout of the Day
AMRAP in 20 minutes
1 mile run
then
AMRAP in remaining time of
10 wall ball shots
10 alternating dumbbell power cleans

You’ll need a wall ball and a dumbbell for today’s workout. The twenty minute AMRAP will start with a one mile run. When you return from the run you will use the remaining time to work through as many rounds as possible of ten wall balls and ten alternating dumbbell power cleans. If you need to change up the run you can grab a rower or bike. Make sure to adjust the distance to somewhere between 3,000 to 4,000 meters on the bike and 2,000 meters on the rower. Use a wall ball and a dumbbell that you are comfortable with so that you can easily work through sets of ten for both movements and transition quickly between each. Your score will be the total rounds you complete of the wall balls and power cleans plus any extra reps in the next round.

For today’s workout you will need a dumbbell or a kettlebell for the alternating cleans and then either a wall ball, your dumbbell or kettlebell or nothing at all for the wall balls. If you don’t have a wall ball at home you can choose to do either goblet squats, thrusters (only choose this if your weight is on the lighter side), or jumping squats if you want to leave the weight out of it! If you choose jumping squats you may want to bump the reps up from 10 to something like 12 or 15 in each round. If you don’t have a good spot to run you can replace it with a row or bike (see distance recommendations above) or choose from 50-75 burpees, 2-300 single or double unders or 100-150 unweighted steps ups. Your score today will be the total rounds you complete of the wall balls and power cleans plus any extra reps in the next round. See you on the leaderboard!

Workout of the Day
10 rounds of 90 seconds on 90 seconds off
9 toe-to-bar or 12 sit-ups
15 box jumps
then
max reps of kettlebell swings

For today’s workout we’ll be on a ninety second interval timer. You’ll work for ninety seconds and then rest for ninety seconds for ten rounds. Each round will start with a small set of either toes to bar or sit-ups before moving on to 15 box jumps and then over to your kettlebell for as many swings as possible with the time remaining in the work period. The goal should be to have about thirty seconds with your kettlebell so if you need to adjust the work that comes before the swings make sure to do that. You can either adjust the reps or adjust the height of the box to move through the box jump reps a little quicker. Your score for today will be the total swings you complete after ten rounds.

Today’s workout can be done with a dumbbell or kettlebell. You’ll be working for ninety seconds and resting for ninety seconds for ten rounds. Before you get to your dumbbell or kettlebell you will have to get through 12 sit-ups (or 9 toes to bar if you have a bar at home) and either 15 box jumps, 15 step ups or 12 broad jumps depending on what equipment you have at home. If you are working with a dumbbell you can definitely swing it, but if you’re not a fan of swinging a dumbbell feel free to do alternating hang cleans instead. The goal should be to have about thirty seconds with your kettlebell so if you need to adjust the work that comes before the swings make sure to do that. Your score for today will be the total swings you complete after ten rounds. See you on the leaderboard!

Skill
EMOM for 10 minutes
1 power clean + 1 front squat + 1 split jerk

Spend ten minutes working up in weight with today’s barbell complex. You’ll complete one power clean, one front squat and one split jerk every minute for ten minutes. This complex can take awhile so be smart with your weight jumps as you go and don’t underestimate how much harder a split jerk can feel after a power clean and front squat before it!

Workout of the Day
AMRAP in 10 minutes
1-2-3-4-5-6…
lateral burpees over the bar
front squats

Lighten your bar up a bit after today’s skill work. We’ve got a classic pairing for this AMRAP of burpees over your bar and front squats. If you are wanting to go “RX” today focus on a two footed jump and land after each burpee as you make your way over the bar. To scale the burpees today you can choose to either step over the bar or just stay in one place to complete your sets of burpees. Your front squat weight should be moderate. Shoot to choose a weight that allows you to complete up to the round of 6 or 7 unbroken for the front squats. Keep your chest and elbows high for each squat and do your best to keep breathing! Your score today will be the last round you complete of both the burpees and squats plus any extra reps in the next round.

Today’s workout can be done with a barbell, dumbbell or kettlebell. Depending on the weight you have at home you may want to adjust the squat reps a bit so that you don’t feel like you’re doing burpees the whole time. If your weight is light you could try following a 2-4-6-8… rep scheme for the squats and keep the 1-2-3-4… rep scheme for the burpees. If your weight is at all challenging you can complete the workout as written! Your score today will be the last round you complete of both the burpees and squats plus any extra reps in the next round. See you on the leaderboard!

Skill
EMOM for 10 minutes
2 power snatches

We’ll start with some heavier snatches for our skill work today before switching things up to lighter dumbbell snatches for the workout. It is up to you if you want to complete these snatches as singles or two touch and go reps. If you choose to drop the bar between reps make sure you can get both snatches done within 20-30 seconds to make sure you have time to recover and/or add weight before the next minute.

Workout of the Day
3 rounds for time
400m run
50 alternating dumbbell snatches

Today’s workout is for time. The rep count is high today for the dumbbell snatch so make sure to choose a dumbbell that you are comfortable with. If 150 reps total looks daunting feel free to scale the reps down to 20 or 30 per round or you could also complete two rounds for time rather than 3. If you need to switch the run out choose a bike today rather than a rower. 800-1000m can be completed in place of each 400 if needed. When completing the dumbbell snatch make sure to focus on a good start position for every rep. Your butt should be low enough to allow for your back to be totally flat as you move the weight from the floor to overhead. Drop under the dumbbell just a bit as your punch out quickly to catch the weight overhead and then stand to complete the rep. Moving well will pay off in a workout like this. Your score today will be the total time it takes you to complete all three rounds. Don’t be afraid to scale! It’s smart and your coach will always be on board if that is the best option for you!

Depending on the weight you have available at home you may want to scale the reps down to 20 or 30 per round or you could also complete two rounds for time rather than 3. If you don’t have a place to run you can always choose a rower or bike if you have one available or you can choose to do 50 unweighted step ups, 50-150 single or double unders or 30-50 broad jumps. Your score today will be the total time it takes you to complete all three rounds. See you on the leaderboard!

Skill
10×3 Strict Pull-Ups

We’ll be working on strict pulling today. You can choose to do weighted, unweighted or banded pull-ups. Ring rows are also always a great option and can be made more or less difficult depending on where you place your feet in relation to the rings. Whatever variation you choose make sure you are doing as much strict pulling as possible and working through the full range of motion for every rep. You should start each rep at a full lockout and end with your chin clearly over the bar.

Workout of the Day
AMRAP in 12 minutes
12 push-ups or strict HSPU
20 sit-ups

We’re taking a break from the weights today and keeping things all bodyweight. Hold yourself to a high standard on the push-ups. Whether you are working from your toes, knees or with your hands on a box make sure that your whole body is moving up and down together, not just your torso or just your hips. If you are breaking at the hips, arching your back or resting at the bottom during your push-ups you are decreasing the difficulty of this movement. Keeping push-ups strict will pay off! You can do it! If you are ready and able feel free to switch out the push-ups for strict handstand push-ups today. Your score today will be total rounds plus any extra reps in the next round.

EMOM for 10 Minutes
1 Power Clean

Spend ten minutes working up to a heavy single power clean for the day. Focus on a strong and controlled pull from the floor, fast elbows in the catch and dropping under the bar to meet it with your hips back. Pay attention to the weight you hit around minutes 5 through 7. These weights could be good options for todays workout!

Workout of the Day
AMRAP in 15 minutes
3 power cleans
30 double unders

Today’s workout is a repeat from April 1st of this year! If you recorded your score in SugarWOD make sure to check it out and either repeat the same weight you did in April or if you’re up for it maybe give that weight a bump up today! The power cleans should be singles. This is a great opportunity to try out a weight you wouldn’t normally choose for a workout. Regardless of the weight you choose make sure to focus on catching the bar with your hips behind you in a partial squat or “power position”. It can be easy to get lazy and send your feet out wide or hips forward when it comes to heavy power cleans, don’t let this be you! Be intentional with every rep! The double unders can be scaled as needed depending on where you are at with this skill. Drop the number to something manageable and repeatable before switching to singles. If you are still inconsistent with double unders you can choose to do 30 singles with a good double under attempt every ten reps. Your score today will be total rounds plus any extra reps.

wall balls

400m run after each set of wall balls

Grab a wall ball and get ready for some…fun? 🙂 The wall ball set sizes will grow quickly so make sure you are comfortable repping out sets of the weight you choose for your ball today. . After each set of wall balls you’ll take off on a 400m run to complete the round. If you need to scale the run grab a bike rather than a rower today and bike about 800-1000m after each set. Your score today will be the last round of wall balls you complete including the run plus any extra reps in the next round.

Today’s workout can be done with a medicine ball if you have one, a dumbbell or kettlebell or no weight at all. You can keep the reps the same regardless of what you are using for your weight today. If you don’t have a wall ball you can choose to do either goblet squats or thrusters with your weight or jumping squats with no weight. If you don’t have a place to run but you have a rower or bike you can use that in place of the run. The run will take around two minutes so keep that in mind when you decide what to replace the run with. If you can’t run, row or bike choose one of the following to do after each set of wall balls: 100 single unders, 30 unweighted step ups, 100 mountain climbers or 30 sit-ups. Your score today will be the last round of wall balls you complete including the run (or what you choose to do in place of it) plus any extra reps in the next round. See you on the leaderboard!

Skill
EMOM for 6 minutes
:30s Hollow Hold

Today’s skill work will be a challenge! We’ll be holding a hollow position laying on the ground for thirty seconds at a time every minute for six minutes. You will be holding for longer than if this was a tabata but you’ll also be getting more rest after each round. To scale a hollow hold you can bring your arms down to your sides or pull one or both legs in. Focus on keeping your lower back in contact with the ground at all times and if you need to rest at any point during the thirty seconds of work you can! A quality position for a short period of time is always better than a crappy position for the full thirty seconds.

Workout of the Day
10 rounds of 30 seconds at each station
alternating dumbbell power cleans
rest
box jumps
rest

You’ll have ten chances today to rack up as many reps today between alternating dumbbell power cleans and box jumps. Choose a dumbbell that you are pretty comfortable with so that you can move through most of the thirty seconds in each round. For box jumps make sure you are landing as tall as possible on the box with your chest up for every rep. If needed scale the box height to focus on a quality landing position. Your score today will be all the reps you complete of both dumbbell cleans and box jumps at the end of the ten rounds.

Today’s workout can be done with a dumbbell or a kettlebell. Each power clean should start from the floor with your kettlebell or dumbbell and end at your shoulder alternating arms for every rep. If you don’t have a box to jump to you can either find something to jump over or something that you could step up onto for step up reps instead. Broad jumps are also a great option in place of box jumps. Your score today will be all the reps you complete of both dumbbell cleans and box jumps at the end of the ten rounds.
