PROGRAM A*

PROGRAM A

WARM UP
Full Body Simple Warm Up

WORKOUT

10 Rounds
20 Double Unders / DB Hop Overs
8 No Push Up Renegade Row

RX Men: 40# DBs
RX Women: 25# DBs

RX Plus Men: 50#+ DBs / 30 Double Unders
RX Plus Women: 35#+ DBs / 30 Double Unders

Score: Total Time
Goal: 13-19 Minutes

Set yourself up for roughly 90 second rounds on this one. Remember to keep that tight plank on the renegade rows!

For the double unders, your rope will pass two times under your feet for every one jump. Keep your chest up and your landing soft. It's just like a single under but you jump a little higher and spin the rope faster using your wrists, not your arms!

For this workout you will want to choose a type/number of double unders that will allow you to finish that part in less than 30 seconds each time. Consider lowering the reps to fit that time window or go with dumbbell hop overs, skip overs, or double rep single unders.

One rep of the renegade row = row right + row left.

Hold plank position/top of the push up. Then row one dumbbell to the rib cage by pulling the elbow back. Try to avoid rotating very much. Pull the dumbbell all of the way up for each rep then lower under control.

If you are struggling to maintain a tight plank position as you pull, trying lowering the weight or modifying to shoulder taps. You could even do a SUPPORTED single arm DB row by planting one hand against the wall and rowing 1/2 the reps with one arm, then switch and finish with the other.

Score: Total Time
Goal: 13-19 Minutes

Set yourself up for roughly 90 second rounds on this one. Keep the bent over rows strict, only the arms move. Don't allow your hips to assist you!

For the double unders, your rope will pass two times under your feet for every one jump. Keep your chest up and your landing soft. It's just like a single under but you jump a little higher and spin the rope faster using your wrists, not your arms!

For this workout you will want to choose a type/number of double unders that will allow you to finish that part in less than 30 seconds each time. Consider lowering the reps to fit that time window or go with dumbbell hop overs, skip overs, or double rep single unders.

Set up for the bent over row by deadlifting the bar to just below the knee. From here, keeping the torso position set and the chest lifted - pull the elbows back and bring the bar to just below the chest. Keep the belly tight. Bring the bar back to just below the knee with the arm straight at the bottom. No kipping or pulling your CHEST down!

WARM UP
Full Body Simple Warm Up

WORKOUT

10 Rounds
20 Double Unders / Sandbag Hop Overs
8 Sandbag Drag and Pulls

Idea Sandbag Loading:
Men: 50-70#
Women: 25-45#

Score: Total Time
Goal: 14-20 Minutes

Set yourself up for roughly 90 second rounds on this one. Remember to keep that tight plank position on the drag and pulls!

For the double unders, your rope will pass two times under your feet for every one jump. Keep your chest up and your landing soft. It's just like a single under but you jump a little higher and spin the rope faster using your wrists, not your arms!

For this workout you will want to choose a type/number of double unders that will allow you to finish that part in less than 30 seconds each time. Consider lowering the reps to fit that time window or go with dumbbell hop overs, skip overs, or double rep single unders.

The sandbag drag and pull starts in a plank position over your bag with the top of the bag at about knee level. Keep the belly tight and butt down. Reach down and grab the bag by the handle with one hand and perform and explosive drag and almost press to get it out in front of you as much as possible. You will then pull it back using the same hand. If you need to you can almost "back up" a bit to get a longer pull. You should pull it back down to between the knees level. If you don't quite make it - you can crawl forward a bit. The next rep will be with the other hand/arm.

Each drag (up) and pull (back) counts as 1 rep.

MAMA MODIFICATIONS

DOUBLE/SINGLE UNDERS - To avoid the added pressure to the pelvic floor that DUs/SUs can create, sub: Taps, Row, Bike, Quick Step Ups, Calf Raises. 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 number of DUs/SUs down to a number that is realistic for your to practice proper positioning and pressure. Any leaking or heaviness in the pelvic floor is a sign that you need to adapt your approach or change the movement to less impact.

NO PUSH UP RENEGADE ROW - If you notice coning in the plank position you may want to do an elevated (i.e.hands on box or bench) renegade row. Or sub a traditional DB Bent Over Row. If you are later in your pregnancy or in the rehab phase of postpartum you may want to train with intention and sub any of the Functional Progressions. You could also sub Bear Pose DB Drag, Windmill, Bandeed Woodchop, Overhead Plate Hold, Waiter Walks, or Farmer Carry/March, or landmine press.
