WOD Brief:

Starting off today continuing to build strength in upper body positions. Really engage and work those lats on all the movements in the strength emom, and challenge yourself to bold weights…afterall it is Friday.

The metcon is a nice little chipper that will continue to require strong core and lat engagement throughout. Be patient with yourself and get through the more daunting movements(ie pullups), minimize rest by take fast short sets versus causing premature, avoidable muscle fatigue.  Be intentional, be fierce and fight through all 300 little reps.

2. SeeSaw Press: 3 x 8-10(per arm)

WOD:

EMOM 20

minute 1 = 10 DL + 5 HPC @ 135/95

minute 2 = 15 wall balls, 20/14#

minute 3 = 15 burpees over the barbell

minute 4 = active rest = walk/ez pedal

WOD Brief:

Tricep and boulder shoulder Wednesday. Still progressing on the core stabilizing dips and the iso-lateral shoulder work, build in weight from last week, pay attention to the tempo and make the most of each rep.

After the simple strength work today, get really warm/slightly sweaty and dive into today’s emom. This is not a workout that will leave you feeling like you can do a little more…especially if you attack every minute as a full-blown sprint. Scale accordingly, come out hot and hold onto to the paces throughout all 20 minutes today.

WOD Brief:

Time to put all of the isolateral leg work to the test today with tempo triple back squats. Ascend in weight as the sets go on, but take a special note of the tempo: 3 second descent+1 second pause in the bottom…if you don’t get a good leg burn/pump from this then up the weight and fight the burn. Maintain bracing and core stability throughout.

20 minute metcon today broken into three segments: quick transitions, calm breathing and consistent movement will be pivotal in getting twenty minutes of work in.

STRENGTH:

B1. DB tempo walking lunge steps 2×10+10

B2. Bent Over KB Row 2×12+12

WOD: With a 20 min clock…

minute 0:00-9:00: AMRAP

Minute 11:00 -20:00: AMRAP

18/14 cal AB or 20/15 Bike ERG Cals

16 OH KB Squat (53/35)

WOD Brief:

Starting off with a strength superset with today with some gluteus/posterior stability strength work and upper back core with KB rows. Go heavier today than we did last time but maintain the strict tempo and time under tension as it is intentional! Time under tension (or TUT for short) is used in strength and conditioning and bodybuilding. Essentially, it refers to how long a muscle is under strain during a set. By putting a muscle under longer bouts of strain, you can cause extensive muscle breakdown leading to sleeve-busting, ferociously strong muscles in a shorter amount of time than with less tut. Maintaining form today is key!

A midlength BURNER metcon today to send you off into the weekend in sweaty style. A sprint followed by a bracing movement will force you to be strategic and keep your breaths under control, go hard, stay tight and don’t hold back.
