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.

COACHES NOTES
You've got a pull, a squat, and a press today. Oh yeah, and a whole lot of burpees but at least they are split into smaller bits! It is crucial that you find a smooth pace on the burpees so you don't fall apart in the later rounds. This workout is more about moving steady and focusing on quality, especially in the high pulls and front squats. So, make sure you are taking the time to find good set up positions on each rep.

SANDBAG HIGH PULL
Set up with a shoulder width stance or slightly wider, hands on the narrow handle or overhand handles.

Sandbag will start on the ground . Your heels should be down, knees out, chest over the sandbag, arms straight, knees bent. You will stand hard and fast with the arms straight, add a shoulder shrug, then the elbows will come high and outside. Keep the shoulders pulled back throughout. Bring the handle or handles of the sandbag to the chest.

To return think arms, shoulders, hips then knees. Keep the back FLAT on the way down.

LATERAL BURPEE OVER SANDBAG
For these burpees, start standing next to your sandbag (not facing), bend your knees, hinge forward at the hips and plant your hands on the floor. Step or jump your feet back to a plank position. Lower knees, hips, and chest all the way down to the floor then press back up. Jump or step your feet in - then jump over the sandbag. The rep is complete when you land on the other side.

SANDBAG FRONT SQUAT
Make sure the sandbag is resting on the biceps with the elbows high! Keep the chest up, but do not overextend the back. Keep the belly tight!

Reach the butt back and down trying to keep the elbows and chest up as you descend. Drive the knees out and keep the heels down throughout. The bottom position should be where the butt is lower than the top of the knee. Do not collapse in this position. Do not go so low that the back starts to round.

To stand, lead with the chest and elbows - keeping the sandbag on the biceps and elbows high. Stand fully for each rep.
