—then—

2 Rounds

10 Back Squats @empty barbell

30 second Front Plank

MANAGEMENT/FOCUS:

  • Getting the barbells out for the second part will help the transition into the Specific Warm-up, Planks will get the core primed for heavy Back Squats

Specific Warm-up

Round 1: 6 Back Squats @45%

Round 2: 4 Back Squats @55%

Round 3: 2 Back Squats @65%

Round 4: 1 Back Squat @75%

MANAGEMENT/FOCUS:

  • I would do a warm-up round every 1:30

  • This is a great time to help them with their technique and depth, the rest will be short but this will help get the heart rate and body temp elevated for heavy squats

Strength

Back Squats 5x2 @78-88%

FOCUS:

  • Working our way down in reps to prepare for the 1-rep max, next will be Pause singles and rack walkouts

  • Keep focusing on technique and depth as the weight gets heavier

OPEN TIME OPTION:

  • 12 minutes

CONTROLLED TIME OPTION:

  • Every 2:30 for 12:30

NO BARBELL OPTION:

  • Double DB Squats 5x6, reps decreased, try to increase weight from last week

WOD Prep

Round 1: 10/8 Calorie Row + 5 Hang Squat Cleans

Round 2: 10/8 Calorie Row + 4 Hang Squat Cleans

Round 3: 10/8 Calorie Row + 3 Hang Squat Cleans

MANAGEMENT/FOCUS:

  • Recommend a round every 2:00

  • Row: Round 1 easy pace, Round 2 moderate, Round 3 hard pace

  • Build from your lowest weight you will use to the heaviest

WOD

“Swamp Thing”

For Time

31/24 Calorie Row

21 Hang Squat Cleans @95/65

31/24 Calorie Row

15 Hang Squat Cleans @115/80

31/24 Calorie Row

9 Hang Squat Cleans @135/95

SCORE: Time

GOAL: 9:00-11:00

PACE: Push and Pray: right on the edge of sending it, but a small bit of pacing helps stay consistent

FOCUS/STRATEGY:

  • Row: sending it too much on the first Row is a trap 😁, RPE of 7 is what I would recommend on all so you can try to string more Hang Squat Clean reps together

  • Hang Squat Cleans: try to do no more than three sets in the Round of 21, two sets in the Round of 15, unbroken in the Round of 9

EQUIPMENT CONSIDERATIONS:

  • This is a tough one to share a Rower, you could possibly share and have one person do it as is and another do the Hang Squat Cleans first, the time frames won’t exactly match but it could still be a good interval workout if you match people up accordingly

  • We have Run and Ski in the Cardio tomorrow, but if needed use them here…Ski calories would be the same, the Run would be 400m each time

  • I would not recommend using the Bike 😬

NO BARBELL OPTION:

  • Single DB Hang Squat Cleans (22/16/10) or

  • KB Taters or

  • KB Goblet Squats

BEGINNER: 75/55 or 45/35 for all Rounds or No Barbell Option

SCALED: 75/55, 95/65, 115/80

Rx+: 115/80, 135/95, 155/105 (only if you can hit the pace goal)

Comp: 135/95, 155/105, 185/125 (only if you can hit the pace goal)
