SANDBAG | WEEK 18 | 04/25/2021

Street Parking Sandbag is posted once a week - on Sunday. You will find a sandbag "option" several times during the week (usually in Program C) of the regular programmed workouts. This workout, however, was programmed specifically with the sandbag in mind.

We typically suggest that instead of adding this in on top of the regular workout on any certain day - that you simply swap one of the regular programmed workouts out for this one. We will provide suggestions each week in the daily workout write ups for Programs A, B, and C - for which workouts make the most sense to swap.

WARM UP
SANDBAG GENERAL WARM UP

WORKOUT

4 Rounds

100 Sandbag Hop Overs
15 Sandbag Lungesters
12 Sandbag Over the Shoulder
9 Supine Toe Touch + Sit Up

Suggested Sandbag Weight:
Men: 50-70#
Women: 25-45#

Score: Total Time

Goal: 22-28 Minutes

The toe touch + sit ups are going to get hard. Customize to just sandbag sit ups if you need to.

Shoot for about 6 minutes per round here. For heavier bags, adjust the reps to hit that pace.

HOP OVERS
Stand next to your bag and hop laterally over the narrow side. You may also do a lateral shuffle.

LUNGESTERS
Clean the sandbag to the biceps with the elbows high. Lunge with both legs. Make sure you take a long enough step that your front heel stays down when your back knee LIGHTLY touches the ground. Don't allow the forward knee to cave in. Keep the belly tight and chest up.

Keep the bag on the biceps with the elbows high and perform a thruster. Reach the butt back and down. Keep the heels down and knees out, chest up and belly tight. Get the butt lower than the knees at the bottom. Drive up hard and fast out of the squat. Pop the sandbag up, move your face out of the way. Keep the belly tight and press the bag straight up to lock out - finishing with the biceps by the ears! Rib cage down and belly tight.

OVER THE SHOULDER
This is a clean that finishes with the bag going over your shoulder. Alternate shoulders each rep. Keep your chest up as you drive the heels down and stand up hard to guide the bag up and over the shoulder.

SUPINE TOE TOUCH + SIT UP
Start on your back with the bag over the chest, arms extended, perpendicular to the floor. Keep the legs straight and squeezed together. Raise your legs up to touch feet or shins to the bag.

As you lower your legs, sit up. Keep the arms extended so you finish in a seated position with arms extended overhead.
