COACHES NOTES
Try to relax and breathe during the double unders/hop overs. This workout really comes down to the squats and pull ups so just find a smooth rhythm on the jumping bits. Choose a load on the squats that you can complete all 15 reps in 1-2 sets. For the pull ups, they should be done in 1-3 sets the whole way. Remember the score is the slowest round, so pick a pace that is sustainable across all 4 rounds.

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 :45 each time.

CUSTOMIZATIONS
Lower Reps
Single Unders (Double the reps)

--OR--

DB HOP OVER
Stand next to one dumbbell and hop laterally over the narrow side, then hop back. Each hop is one rep. Ideally this is 2 feet hopping and landing together, but if you need to do a little shuffle instead for your knees, go for it.

CUSTOMIZATIONS
Skip Overs
Line Hops

DUMBBELL SQUAT
Hold the DBs at the shoulder. The feet should be shoulder width apart. Heels down. Raise the chest and tighten the belly. Reach the butt back and down and drive the knees out.

PULL UPS
You have the option of strict, kipping, butterfly pull ups, or choose one of the customizations below. Grip the bar a little wider than shoulder width. Fire up the lats by drawing the shoulders down away from the ears. Keep the belly tight. Make sure that you start all the way at the bottom and either get the chin over or pull the chest all the way up at the top! If you choose to use a band, stay in control and avoid the bounce out of the bottom.

COACHES NOTES
Try to relax and breathe during the double unders/hop overs. This workout really comes down to the squats and pull ups so just find a smooth rhythm on the jumping bits. Ideally, the squats can be completed in 1-2 sets each round. But, if you are working with a heavier bag, break the squats into three smaller sets and keep the breaks short. For the pull ups, they should be done in 1-3 sets the whole way. Remember the score is the slowest round, so pick a pace that is sustainable across all 4 rounds.

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!

Stand all of the way up at the top.

Fire up the lats by drawing the shoulders down away from the ears. Keep the belly tight. Make sure that you start all the way at the bottom and either get the chin over or pull the chest all the way up at the top! If you choose to use a band, stay in control and avoid the bounce out of the bottom.

CUSTOMIZATIONS
TRX/Ring Row
Inverted Row
Bent Over Row
Banded Pull Ups

Double/Single Unders

To manage or avoid the added pressure to the pelvic floor that DUs/SUs can create, sub: Taps, Row, Bike, Quick Step Ups, One Legged Plank Rock, High Knee Step Up Overs, or 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.

DB/Back/Front/Air Squat

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.

Pull Ups

For managing the pressure of the core and pelvic floor during Early Pregnancy or later on in the Rebuilding stages of PP sub: strict pull ups or banded pull ups. To avoid any coning in the belly during 2nd/3rd Trimester or Rehab stage of PP, while hanging from the bar sub: Ring Rows, Bent Over Rows, Barbell Pull Ups Banded Lat Pull Downs, Banded Woodchop, Banded Lat Pull Downs, DB/KB Front Raises. Kipping Pull Ups should only be added back into the later stages of Rebuilding in PP once the rehab is complete and athlete shows proficiency in strict movements.
