Workout of the day

AMRAP in 20 minutes

40 sit-ups
30 walking lunge steps
20 push-ups

Workout notes

We’re taking a break from the weights today and moving through three bodyweight movements for twenty minutes. The push-ups will be the sticking point for many people so choose a scaling option that allows you to keep moving but is still challenging. As always we’re looking for full range of motion push-ups, making contact with the ground at the bottom of each rep and locking out elbows at the top. Do your best to settle in to a sustainable pace and keep moving for the full 20 minutes.

Workout of the day

12 rounds of 60 seconds on 30 seconds off

4 Alternating devil press
8 Air squats

Workout notes

Today’s workout is all about speed and your ability to recover. We’ll be doing 12 one minute long AMRAP’s of alternating devil press and air squats with 30 seconds of rest between each minute. You will restart on the devil press every time the minute of work restarts. Your score for this workout will be your total completed rounds and all of your extra reps added up at the end.

Workout of the day

AMRAP in 15 minutes

5 Strict presses
30 Double unders

Workout notes

Today’s workout may look quite simple, but choosing the right weight here will be important! You will want to choose a weight for the strict press that allows you to finish all 5 reps unbroken when you start. Expect this movement to get exponentially harder as the workout goes on. The double unders will only make the strict press more challenging. Make sure to squeeze your lower body and midline as you press overhead to avoid arching your back. Double Unders can be scaled to a smaller number to make them more manageable or single unders are also an option with a few double under attempts sprinkled in.

Yoga at 9AM

We’ll be moving zoom yoga to 9AM and cancelling zoom workouts for Sunday’s moving forward. Good news though because starting in August we’ll be holding two classes on the patio every Sunday at 10 and 11 AM! Look for the schedule to open up for Sunday workouts next Saturday!

Workout of the Day

AMRAP in 20 Minutes

20 dumbbell snatches
20 Jumping alternating lunges

Workout notes

Today’s workout is a pretty straightforward grind. Make sure to set your pace from the start to be able to move consistently for the full 20 minutes. This could be a great day to bump up your DB weight if you’ve been throwing around the same weight for awhile. If jumping lunges are a no go for you for any reason you can try out regular walking lunges or even air squats would be a good substitution.

Workout of the day

AMRAP in 20 Minutes

1-2-3-4-5 … *
cycles of
12 Deadlifts
9 Hang power cleans
6 Push Jerks

* 15 Burpees after every round

Workout notes

Today’s workout is a somewhat unique format. You’ll start by working through one round of 12 Deadlifts, 9 Hang Power Cleans and 6 Push Jerks followed by 15 burpees. After completing the 15 burpees you will return to your barbell for 2 rounds of the complex and again move on to 15 burpees and then back to the bar for 3 rounds of the complex etc. Climb as high as you can adding a round of the barbell complex each time you return to the bar. Choose your weight based on the push jerk and make sure that you never have to break up the 6 reps into more than 2 sets throughout the workout.

Workout of the day

AMRAP in 25 Minutes

Meters on Bike or Rower

Workout notes

Interesting workout on the menu today! We haven’t done something like this in quite some time. One positive of our limited class size is that we can do some interesting workouts that wouldn’t normally work for large groups. Grab yourself the erg of your choice and haul it outside to the patio and settle in for a long ride. Twenty-five minutes is a long time in one position so feel free to get up any time you need to. After time is called your score will be the total number of meters accumulated!

Workout of the day

for time

21-18-15-12-9-6-3
kettlebell swings
sit-ups
goblet squats
push-ups

Workout notes

We’re looking at a long one today with a delicate pairing of two bodyweight movements and two lifting movements. You’ll have eighty-four reps of each so that’s more than three hundred total reps. Pace yourself early and don’t feel the need to start each movement with an “unbroken” set. Adding some rest initially will pay off later in the workout.

Workout of the day

10 rounds of 90 seconds on 30 seconds off

15 box jumps
then
max reps alternating dumbbell power cleans

Workout notes

We’ll have twenty minutes on the clock today for a ten round interval workout. Start each round with a small set of box jumps and then get to working on those dumbbell power cleans. You should have around sixty seconds to knock out cleans. This would be a great opportunity to test a slightly heavier dumbbell than you might normally use if you feel like you are up to the challenge!

Workout of the day

Workout notes

We’re up and running at CF Davis on our new patio. When you arrive wear your mask and claim a square to work out in. Bring anything you need like chalk, water etc, and keep it with you. We still have chalk boxes available if you haven’t grabbed one yet, you’ll need it for this workout! Use a light weight so that you can break up each movement by two to three sets max.
