20-30 second each side Standing Quad Stretch

20-30 second each side Standing Groin Stretch

10yd Walking Lunge and Reach

10yd Walking Straight Leg Marches

—then—

2 Rounds

30 second Front Plank

10 Empty Barbell RDLs

MANAGEMENT:

  • Make sure the posterior chain is loose and ready to go, the planks and RDLs will prime the body more specifically for the strength section

Specific Warm-up

3 Rounds

Round 1: 6 Deadlift @40% + 20 Flutter Kicks

Round 2: 4 Deadlift @50% + 20 Flutter Kicks

Round 3: 2 Deadlift @60% + 20 Flutter Kicks

MANAGEMENT:

  • Recommend doing both movements every 2 minutes, with plate changes it will not be a ton of rest, but this will help the body get warm and heart rate to increase

Strength

Deadlift 5x5 @70-80%

FOCUS:

  • This will be our lower body lift for this short Open cycle

  • This is not the time to go for a 5-rep max, stay within the recommended percentages, if you get to 80% I would only do the final set at that weight

  • These can be singles or touch n’ go, if you do singles pull to the top then lower to the ground before resetting for the next rep

  • Keep your chest up, core engaged, hips stay below the shoulders as the barbell is coming up, when the barbell gets to the knee think of flexing your butt to get full hip extension at the top

OPEN TIME OPTION:

  • 10 minutes

CONTROLLED TIME OPTION:

  • Every 2 minutes for 10 minutes complete a set, this should leave around 1:40 of rest

NO BARBELL OPTION:

  • Double KB Deadlift 5x10

WOD Prep

3 Rounds

Squat Cleans (3 in Round 1, 2 in Round 2, 1 in Round 3, build to WOD weight)

10 Lateral Bar Hops

5 Toes to Bar

WOD

AMRAP 12

5 Squat Cleans @155/105

15 Lateral Bar Hops

15 Toes to Bar

SCORE: Rounds + Reps

GOAL: 4-5 Rounds

PACE: Grindin’ All My Life, find a pace to stay consistent, but it will be a steady grind

FOCUS/STRATEGY:

  • Squat Cleans: chest up, hip pop and drop quickly under the barbell and fire those elbows like guns in a quick draw, stand fully before lowering the barbell for the next rep, recommend slow and steady singles

  • Lateral Bar Hops: two foot jump and land, focus on quickness, you can land and gather before jumping back over if needed, breath and move

  • Toes to Bar: as mentioned last week, we have slowly built up on these reps, we have 15 again this week, use the Murph Mentality option if needed

LOGISTICS:

  • I would line the barbells up in rows so that everyone has their defined space for the Squat Cleans and Lateral Bar Hops

“MURPH MENTALITY” OPTION:

  • If 15 is still too high and would significantly slow you down then do 5 Squat Cleans, 8 Toes to Bar, 15 Lateral Bar Hops, 7 Toes to Bar

BEGINNER: Front Squats @95/65, Lateral Line Hops, Lying Leg Raises

SCALED: 135/95, Murph Mentality Option and/or Hanging Knee Raises

Rx+: 185/125, 20 Toes to Bar
