Athletes Notes

Score

  • Your score today is the max box jumps you do per round. You will have 4 total scores.

Workout Strategy and Flow

  • The goal of this workout today is to get to the box as quickly as you can and then continue to push! You don’t want to go too fast out of the gate or you’ll be too slow on the box where it is scored.
  • Be very aware that your legs will be tired after the squats and burpees, but find your breath and keep moving.

Demo Videos

FLOW

  • At 3,2,1, go….you will begin with 20 squat to overhead reach. Upon completing these reps, you will go to the ground for 15 burpees with no jump (I like to think this is the good part of a burpee). After those 15 repetitions, you will work against the clock and complete as many box jumps as you can in the remaining time.
  • It is important to remember that you get 1:30 of rest between sets. Make sure you set your clocks accordingly.

Substitution

  • If you need to scale the jumps, you can lower the box to something more manageable. Or you can do step ups. All I am looking for is that you choose something challenging for you 🙂

Workout Strategy and Flow

  • The goal of this workout today is to get to the box as quickly as you can and then continue to push! You don’t want to go too fast out of the gate or you’ll be too slow on the box where it is scored. Since we have single arm thrusters, expect your legs to be tired as well as your shoulders as you move through this workout.
  • Be very aware that your legs will be tired after the thrusters and devils press, but find your breath and keep moving. Aren’t we glad its only a single dumbbell?!

Upon completing these reps, you will go to the ground for 7 single dumbbell devils press on your left side followed by 7 on your right side. . After those two movements , you will work against the clock and complete as many box jumps as you can in the remaining time.
