  • Tuesday, January 15th

    Hey all! It’s Tuesday! That means the 5:30 Class is dedicated to Olympic Lifting. If you normally attend the 5:30 class and are not interested in working on the Snatch or Clean and Jerk come to the 4:45 class or the regular 6:30! Those of you coming to the class at 4:45 should be able to get through a good portion of the gymnastics skill/strength work we’ve got on the menu today. 

    Skill/Strength

    4 Rounds rotating between each of the following 6 stations station. Rest as needed between stations, focus on form!

    1) 30 Second Handstand Hold
    2) 5 Straight Double Leg Raises
       
    • You can do these hanging or from support on a dip station or rings.  Raise your legs to the  L-Sit  position and then back down.  Move through each rep without your feet touching the ground if possible. You can scale these of course!  Low leg raises, double knee tucks, single leg raises or leg extenstion to knee tuck on a box are great ways to scale this movement.
    3) 20 Second Superman hold
    4) 10 Kipping Swings
    5) 20 Second Hollow Hold
    6) 
    3 Strict Chin-Ups with hollow body
       •  Challenge yourself to go chest-to-bar and maintain hollow for each rep.

  • Sunday, January 13th

    Sunday Funday! Well that depends on your definition of fun:)

    Remember we have classes at 11 and 12 today! 

    Skill:

    Attempt a new PR at a 5-Set, Unbroken, Double-Under Pyramid

    An example would be 5-10-15-10-5. Each set must be unbroken and you must stop the rope between each set.  If you are new to double unders it could be 1-2-3-2-1, if you’re advanced try something that will be a challenge: 30-40-50-40-30 or higher! 

    You have 10 minutes to do your best to complete the Double-Under Pyramid.  Don’t get discouraged! This is a great time to put a little pressure on your double unders and see what you can do! 

    WOD:

    For Time:

    15 Power Clean & Jerks, 135/95 lbs
    30 Air Squats
    12 Power Clean & Jerks, 135/95 lbs
