PROGRAM A
WARM UP
Squat Warm Up
Dumbbell Shoulder Warm Up
Box Jump Warm Up
WORKOUT
Street Parking Vault: Dumbbell "DIEZ"
4 Rounds
20 Dumbbell Thrusters
15 Burpee Box Jump
30 Double Unders
Rest 1 Min Between Rounds
RX Men: 40# DBs - 24" Box
RX Women: 25# DBs - 20" Box
RX+ Men: 50# DBs / 50 Double Unders
RX+ Women: 35# DBs / 50 Double Unders
Score: Slowest Round ONLY
Goal: Under 4 Min
Diez baby!! Each movement in this workout is going to wear you down just enough for the next movement. Choose a load on the thrusters you can complete at least 10 reps at a time in the first couple rounds.
For the thrusters the DBs will be on the shoulders with the elbows high. Feet under shoulders, heels down. You will reach the butt back and down and get to the bottom of the squat with the DBs on the shoulders and elbows high. Stand hard and fast to pop the DBs off of the body. Press the DBs straight up. Keep belly tight and finish locked out overhead - biceps by the ears.
Modify to Front Squats without the overhead press.
For the burpee box jumps, place your hands on the ground facing your box. 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. Then, using a two foot take off and a two foot landing, jump up onto your box.
Make sure when you jump and when you land that the knees do not cave in! We recommend stepping back down off the box rather than jumping.
Modify to a no push up burpee box jump, burpee jump over something, or a burpee step up.
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 1 min each time. Consider lowering the reps to fit that time window or go with the dumbbell hop overs, skip overs, or double rep single unders.

SQUATS OR THRUSTERS - If you have a hard time maintaining control and a stable midline in the bottom of the squat or if you find yourself bearing down to get out of the bottom, try subbing a target or assisted squat to shorten the range of motion. A box squat is always a great idea especially during pregnancy to strengthen the posterior chain and balance out the growing belly.
BURPEES - Pay attention to any coning or doming you have in the plank position of the burpee or any sensation of pressure on your pelvic floor as you hop back or hop forward. Feel free to sub: No push up burpee, Elevated burpee, Step back/forward burpee, Air Squat + Elevated Push Up, Table Top (all fours position) + Air Squat, Ball Slams, KB Swings, Farmer/Goblet march, Glute Bridges, Sumo Deadlift High Pull
BOX JUMP/JUMP/SKIP OVERS - 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.
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 try scaling the number of DUs/SUs down to a number that is realistic for you to practice proper positioning and managing 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.
