COACHES NOTES
For this workout, you'll cycle through 15 squats, 10 rows, 5 burpees, and 1 minute of continuous movement as many times as you can until 14 minutes are up!

You're shooting to finish a round every 3:00-4:30. Find a pace and/or customization on the air squats that allows you to get those 15 reps done in 1:15 or less! Your body angle on the TRX/ring rows should allow you to do those in 2-3 sets. Challenge yourself to knock out those burpees in 40 seconds or less!

AIR SQUAT
You will have the feet shoulder width apart with the heels down. Lift the chest and tighten the belly. Reach the butt back and down as you drive the knees out. Ideally, you will get your butt lower than your knees at the bottom with the chest up and belly still tight! Drive through the heels and drive the knees out to stand completely.

If you have a tendency to collapse at the bottom, you may try using a counter balance. If you have pain or issue in the bottom from current or past injury or issue - you may choose to squat to a slightly higher target. Still focus on heels down, knees out, chest up!

CUSTOMIZATIONS
Squat to Target
Assisted Squat

TRX/RING ROW
Grab the handles or rings and lie back until your elbows lock out completely. Just remember that the more parallel your body is to the ground - the more difficult these become. You can step forward to make them more challenging or backward to make them more accessible. Keep the body rigid and belly tight - and pull all of the way to your chest at the top. Keep your elbows close to your sides and lock them all the way out at the bottom each time.

If you don't have access to TRX or rings, swap these out for bent over rows or even single arm bent over rows!

CUSTOMIZATIONS
Bent Over Row (2 DBs or 1 DB in both hands)
Single Arm Bent Over Row

BURPEE
Start standing. Place your hands on the ground. Jump or step your feet back. Get your chest and thighs to the ground. Press to lockout (top of push up). Jump or step the feet in. Jump up and clap with arms overhead!

You can also sub to "no-push-up" burpees or even do them with your hands elevated on a bench or box if you need to.

CUSTOMIZATIONS
Step In/Out Burpee
No Push Up Burpee
Elevated Burpee

1 MINUTE OF CONTINUOUS MOVEMENT
You will choose from a jog/run, row, bike, taps, single unders (jump rope), or low step ups. Whichever you pick, you will perform until 1 minute is complete. You may change which movement you pick from round to round.

The goal is to move for the entire minute each time at a consistent but uncomfortable pace!

Each 1 minute effort is worth 2 reps - 1 rep for reaching halfway and 1 rep for completion!

Thruster/Wallball

To focus on managing proper posture, breathing mechanics, core pressurization, and/or joint stability, sub: DB/WB Thruster, Lower Target Wall Ball Toss, Box/Target Supported Squat for Wall Ball, DB Goblet Squat + Press, or Air Squat

Run/Jog

To manage or avoid the added pressure to the pelvic floor that the impact from running can create, sub: Taps, Row, Bike, Farmer Carry, Sled Push/Drag, Quick Step Ups, High Knee Step Overs, Elevated 1 Legged Plank Rock.

If you're postpartum and working towards rehab-ing your core and pelvic floor you can choose from the same subs for pregnancy and/or scaling the distance that you run so that you can focus on your posture, breathing mechanics, and managing the pressure of your or and pelvic floor.

Pull Ups

For managing the pressure of the core and pelvic floor during Early Pregnancy or later on in the Rebuilding stages of PP sub: strict pull ups or banded pull ups. To avoid any coning in the belly during 2nd/3rd Trimester or Rehab stage of PP, while hanging from the bar sub: Ring Rows, Bent Over Rows, Barbell Pull Ups Banded Lat Pull Downs, Banded Woodchop, Banded Lat Pull Downs, DB/KB Front Raises. Kipping Pull Ups should only be added back into the later stages of Rebuilding in PP once the rehab is complete and athlete shows proficiency in strict movements.
