HOME WOD – Friday 8 May 2020

Today, make your challenge to tackle each movement as mini individual workouts. What that means is that rather than pacing yourself for a long chipper, have them just get through each part. This will be hard, because people are trained to leave a little in the tank when you know you have more coming. It also might mean that you take a little more rest between movements. That is fine, as long as during the movements you take quick breaks. Keep in mind, this method may not result in the fastest time you can do, but we aren’t trying to win workouts, we are in it for the long haul and getting you out of your comfort zone and thinking about things differently is a great skill to develop. Doing this also makes people realise where your weaknesses lie.

Doing this also makes people realise where your weaknesses lie.

The box jumps and push-ups will take up the bulk of the workout. By the time you get to the push-ups, you will be pretty fatigued. The push-ups will slow most people down and some will be down to sets of 5-7. If you can’t do more than 5 reps at any deficit while you are fresh, you should scale the movement.

Your top athletes will get the workout done around 15 minutes. We will allow up to 20 minutes for the majority to complete it. Your UL folk will finish well under 20 minutes.

 

If you don’t have something to jump on, instead of performing 180 toe-taps, get creative and switch out the object jumps to a lateral jump, or an over-under even (reduced reps).

Add load for the good-mornings if possible.

60 Double-unders
60 DB Swing (24/16 kg.)
60 Object Jumps
60 Deficit Push-ups
60 Double-unders

A sweaty ‘jumping’ chipper for today! Gymnastics and light weight, sandwiched between monostructural movements. The one time through design of chippers allows for a certain level of intensity to be maintained across the workout. Once you start to fatigue on one movement, you are onto the next. Calves and hip flexors are going to get lit up today and your cardiorespiratory fitness will be tested.
* Most of you won’t have an assault bike, but we wanted to give anyone who does the opportunity to play with it today. Sub for 16/12 cals on rower, or 60 double-unders if you don’t have a bike.

16/12 Cal. Assault Bike
60 KB Swing (24/16 kg.)
60 Box Jump (24/20 in.)
60 Deficit Push-ups
60 Double-unders

Scaling

Box/object jumps: Scale the height as needed. Reduce the reps to 50. Then, modify to 100 step ups if people are unable to jump.

Push-ups: Decrease the deficit as needed. Then, scale to regular push-ups, and further use height under your hands for further scaling

Choose 1-2 Thoracic Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 5-10 minutes with them.

Choose 1-2 Upper Extremity Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 5-10 minutes with them.

Choose 2-3 Lower Extremity Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 10-12 minutes with them.

 

Nutrition Preparation:

Ensure that you have quality foods prepared in the appropriate quantities to fuel your efforts for the remainder of the week.
