COACHES NOTES
For this workout, you’ll cycle through 8 hang cleans, 8 presses, and 8 jump overs as many times as you can in 6 minutes. Then you’ll rest for 2 minutes before starting back over at the top for another 6-minute bout.

You’re shooting for each round to take between 0:50 and 1:20. That means you’ll need to pick a weight for the cleans and presses that you can get the 8 reps done in 1-2 sets. Remember to jump and shrug during the hang power cleans so that your legs can help your arms in guiding that weight up to your chest!

DUMBBELL HANG POWER CLEAN
You can hold a single dumbbell in both hands at your hips or hold a dumbbell in each hand at the sides. Do a small dip - jump and shrug the shoulders then pull the dumbbell(s) up to the shoulders. The idea here is to think about jumping and then pulling/guiding the dumbbell(s) to your shoulders. Try to not just do bicep curls!

CUSTOMIZATIONS
Single DB/KB Hang Power Clean
Low Jump (Stack of Plates or other Low Target)

OVERHEAD PRESS
You can use two DBs on the shoulders or one DB/KB at the chest. Focus on keeping the rib cage down as you go to press up. Press the object until it's completely locked out overhead with the biceps by the ears! Then bring the dumbbells all the way down to the shoulders each time.

CUSTOMIZATIONS
Single Arm DB/KB Overhead Press
Single DB/KB Overhead Press

KB/DB JUMP OVER
You will stand facing the DB/KB and jump over it. Then you will turn around and jump back over the object. You can scale to a line if you are intimidated to go over something. You can also sub a little skip over.

If jumping or skipping is out of the question, you can perform a low, alternating step up.

CUSTOMIZATIONS
KB/DB Skip Over
Line Jump/Skip Over
Low Alternating Step Ups

Hang Clean

For pregnant mamas with bellies that interrupt the most efficient path of the bar, you may want to consider sub DBs for the barbell so you are not putting too much load on your back or training inefficient movement patterns.

Overhead Press

Focus on proper alignment of your pelvis and spine. If you find yourself over extending in your back or coning in your belly sub less weight, Strict Press, Seated Strict Press, or even Front Raises.

Box Jump

This is going to be all about managing the impact and pressure to your core and pelvic floor. If you feel any heaviness or pain in the pelvic floor or surrounding areas (i.e. tailbone, lower back, pubic symphysis) or if you notice symptoms like leaking pee, please consider adapting your approach or modifying the movement. The SHIFT options for smaller Jump/Skip Overs are good for helping you achieve the stimulus with a little less impact. You can ALWAYS substitute Step Ups if you want zero impact or even KB Swings if you want to get a little more explosive with your hips. For pregnant mamas, please remember that if you are unsure if you can complete the movement because of balance, strength, or coordination it may not be worth the risk of potentially falling or busting up your shins! For mamas further along in their Postpartum you can try a lower height of box to practice that two foot take off and landing without the extra impact. Focus on your breath and posture throughout the movement and do less reps if that helps you concentrate on good technique and awareness in your body.
