STRENGTH / PUMP SESSION

EMOM 12 (6 Rounds)

Alternate between...

Min 1: :30 sec of strict Pull ups (or a variant that will help you get stronger)

Min 2: 5-10 reps (you choose depending on the weight) of moderate weight shoulder press with barbell.

*My goal with this session is to get everyone’s baseline strength up before we dive into a true strength cycle. So, if you are an athlete who has been pressing / doing pull ups over quarantine be sure to target heavier weight on the shoulder press and challenge yourself on the pull ups today!

WOD

EMOM 12 (6 Rounds)

Alt. Between...

Min 1: Max Cal’s on the rower

Min 2: Max Burpees

*We’ve done this before, but for 20 minutes. In fact, this is a MICF Benchmark WOD. But, for today, we’re going shorter and hopefully using a slightly higher intensity!

WARM UP

5 min Burgener warm up with PVC

5 min Burgener warm up with empty bar

STRENGTH EMOM 15 Min

3 Power Cleans

*Start with moderate weight, and maintain moderate weight, or build to heavy-ish weight over the course of the 15 minutes.

*The goal is to accumulate volume with moderate to heavy weight with great technique.

*Some of us have been using a barbell over quarantine, some of us haven’t. So I am leaving it up to the athletes to decide what they want to get out of this! But, the bottom line is to reinforce proper technique with some weight!

WOD

21-15-9

Power Clean 95/65# (Light and manageable weight)

Cal Echo Bike (ladies use 17-12-7 for cal’s on the bike)
