RX + Men: 95# +
RX + Women: 65# +

Score: Total REPS across all 3 AMRAPS.  This will require some math that I highly recommend you wait to do until at least 15 min after you are completely done.
Goal: A lot.  Give it your all.  Also #blamejulian

NOTES:

For this workout you will do 3 mini workouts basically.  The first one is a 3 min AMRAP (where you do as many reps as possible in 3 min).  During that 3 min you repeat 3 power snatches, 6 box jumps and 6 push ups over and over for 3 min.  At the end you write down what you got and rest 1 min.  Then you do a 5 Min AMRAP of 5 power snatches, 10 Box Jumps, and 10 Push Ups - repeated over and over for 5 min.  At the end you will note your score for THAT ONE and rest 2 Min this time.  FInally you will do a 7 min AMRAP of 7-14-14.  At the end note your score.  Add up TOTAL REPS from all 3 amraps for your score at the end!

For the power snatch you will start with the bar on the ground.  (If you are using an empty bar it will be just below the knee).  Heels are down and back is flat/knees are out.  Arms are wide (overhead squat grip) and straight.  Chest is up!  Lift the bar by driving the heels into the ground as you lift the chest.  Keep the arms long and straight.  Once past the knees you will pick up speed and almost jump with the bar.  DO NOT SWING IT OUT.  Get the shoulder behind it before you jump.  Shrug and allow the bar to travel UP the body (not away) by pulling the elbows high and outside.  As you're pulling the bar up - pull YOURSELF down underneath it and punch to lock out in a partial squat position. Heels down, knees out, bar locked over the middle of the body.  Stand to complete!

For the box jumps we would love to see you actually jump if possible.  If you need to jump on something significantly lower to make that happen - do so!  If you don't have something to jump on - you can find something to jump OVER!

If you are unable to jump at this time you may sub step ups.

For the push ups we want to see a solid body position.  Touch the chest and thighs to the ground and come all of the way back up.  No sagging or snaking.  Go to the knees or do elevated if needed.

NOTES:

For this workout you will do 3 mini workouts basically.  The first one is a 3 min AMRAP (where you do as many reps as possible in 3 min).  During that 3 min you repeat 6 alternating hands dumbbell snatches, 6 box jumps and 6 push ups over and over for 3 min.  At the end you write down what you got and rest 1 min.  Then you do a 5 Min AMRAP of 10 alternating DB snatch, 10 Box Jumps, and 10 Push Ups - repeated over and over for 5 min.  At the end you will note your score for THAT ONE and rest 2 Min this time.  FInally you will do a 7 min AMRAP of 14-14-14.  At the end note your score.  Add up TOTAL REPS from all 3 amraps for your score at the end!

For the dumbbell snatch the dumbbell will start on the ground between the feet.  You will have your heels down and your knees slightly bent.  You will grab the dumbbell with one hand and keep the arm long and straight.  Lift the chest and keep the back flat.  Stand hard and fast with the dumbbell lifting the chest and digging the heels down.  Keep the arm straight as you stand.  Shrug the shoulder of the working arm.  Pull the elbow to the outside to keep the dumbbell close as it travels up the body.  Finally, punch it up to a locked out position overhead with the bicep by the ear.  If your press out starts to fatigue you can even pull under it slightly.  Just make sure you are standing tall to finish.

Lower the dumbbell down and switch hands.  For the 6s you will do 3 per side.  The 10s - 5 per side. the 14s - 7 per side.

For the box jumps we would love to see you actually jump if possible.  If you need to jump on something significantly lower to make that happen - do so!  If you don't have something to jump on - you can find something to jump OVER!

If you are unable to jump at this time you may sub step ups.

SHIFT WARM UP

Simple SHIFT Warm Up

3 Rounds
20 Taps
10 Skip Overs
10 Toe Touches
3 No Push Up Inchworm
5 Push Up / Knee Push Up
2 Lunge with Twist Right
2 Lunge with Twist Left
10 Air Squats

Increase speed each round!

SHIFT WORKOUT

2 Parts to this one so make sure you read through the full description!

5 Min AMRAP  (As Many Rounds as Possible in 5 Min)
5 KB Swings
5 Jump/Skip Overs or Step Ups
5 Push Ups

After 5 Min - Rest 3 Min
After 3 Min Rest

7 Min AMRAP (As Many Rounds and Reps as Possible in 7 Min)
7 KB Swings
7 Jump/Skip Overs or Step Ups
7 Push Ups

Idea weight for KB/DB Swings:

Men: 30-50#
Women: 12-25#

Score: Total ROUNDS from both AMRAPS combined + any additional REPS from both AMRAPS combined.
Goal: 10 Rounds or more TOTAL

NOTES:

So the way this works is you will first go for 5 min repeating 5 swings, 5 jump or skip overs, and 5 push ups over and over getting as many rounds and reps as you can.  At 5 min - you will rest 3 min (write down your score from the 5 min during this part).  After the 3 min rest you will do 7 min of 7-7-7.  At the end add up how many rounds you got from BOTH and add up any additional reps from BOTH as your score!

For the swings the feet are about shoulder width apart with the heels down.  Hold the kb or db in both hands at the waist.  HInge at the hips to allow the torso to come forward with the belly tight and chest up.  Heels down and bend the knees slightly.  Pull the weight back between the legs with straight arms.  Stand up hard and fast.  This will make the db or kb weightless.  Guide it up to eye level using the upper back and shoulders (arms still straight).  Allow gravity to bring it back down and pull it back between the legs for the next rep!  Belly tight and chest up!  Heels down!

For the jump or skip overs you can draw a chalk line on the ground or if you are feeling good jump or skip over your kb or db.  Face whatever you are jumping or skipping over and if you can jump over from both feet at once!  If that's a no go you can do a kind of skip step.  If jumping - even skipping - is OUT - you can sub in step ups.

For the push ups you may do regular push ups from the feet, or knee push ups, you may even choose to do elevated push ups on a bench, box or even a bar in a rack.  Remember we don't want to see any sagging or snaking.  Keep the belly tight and make sure the torso stays one solid unit.  Elbows go back and stay in - avoid allowing them to flare out!

Score: Total Time

NOTES:
For fun put how many burpees you had to do in comments

Well then - thanks for nothing Jeb.  For this one you can strategize a little bit.  Drop before you completely redline.  Do your burpees at a moderate pace.  Take a few deep breaths before you pick the bar back up.

For the thrusters the bar will be on the shoulders with the elbows high.  Feet under shoulders, heels down.  You will reach butt back and down and get to the bottom of the squat with the bar on the shoulders and keeping the elbows high.  Stand hard and fast to pop the bar off of the body.  Move the face out of the way and press the bar straight up. Keep belly tight and finish locked out overhead.

Subs for the thrusters, lower the weight :) or sub air squats.
You should be able to perform at least 10 thrusters every set with the weight you choose, so choose a weight you think you can do at least 10 reps in a row for majority of the workout.

For the barbell facing burpees you will face your barbell. Get your chest and thighs to the ground by either jumping or stepping back. Jump or step the feet back in. Jump over your barbell. Turn around and repeat!

Subs for burpees could be a push up to a box, bench or step, then step up to that box, bench or step. or remove the push-up from the burpee and simply come to a plank position/top of push-up and back up again to finish the burpee by jumping over your barbell.

Well then - thanks for nothing Jeb.  For this one you can strategize a little bit.  Break before you completely redline.  Do your burpees at a moderate pace.  Take a few deep breaths before you pick the DBs back up.

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.

Subs for the thrusters, you could lower the weight, also hold a single DB in the goblet position and perform your thrusters almost like you would with a BB but with a DB instead.  If you are injured or something is nagging feel free to do single arm Thrusters or switch to airsquats.

For the dumbbell facing burpees you will face your dumbbells. Get your chest and thighs to the ground by either jumping or stepping back. Jump or step the feet back in. Jump over your dumbbells. Turn around and repeat!

Subs for burpees could be a push up to a box, bench or step, then step up to that box, bench or step. or remove the push-up from the burpee and simply come to a plank position/top of push-up and back up again to finish the burpee by jumping over your DBs.

Well then - thanks for nothing Jeb.  For this one you can strategize a little bit.  Break before you completely redline.  Do your burpees at a moderate pace.  Take a few deep breaths before you pick the Sandbag back up.

For the thrusters the sandbag will be on the biceps 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 sandbag on the biceps and keeping the elbows high.  Stand hard and fast to pop the sandbag off of the body.  Move the face out of the way and press the sandbag straight up. Keep belly tight and finish locked out overhead.

For the Sandbag Thrusters you can also perform shoulder to shoulder thrusters. You will still take the sandbag from the ground, but in stead of the front rack you will place the bag on one shoulder perform a thruster, but press the bag over your head and onto the opposite shoulder for 1 rep.  If you aren't able to do at least 7-10 reps each set of thrusters with the weight of your sandbag, think about choosing a different variation of this workout.

For the sandbag facing burpees you will face your sandbag. Get your chest and thighs to the ground by either jumping or stepping back. Jump or step the feet back in. Jump over your sandbag. Turn around and repeat!

Subs for burpees could be a push up to a box, bench or step, then step up to that box, bench or step. or remove the push-up from the burpee and simply come to a plank position/top of push-up and back up again to finish the burpee by jumping over your sandbag.

No weight needed today!

Score: Total Number of Completed Rounds + Any Additional Reps in 10 Min
Goal: 7 Rounds +

NOTES:

Pretty simple this time!
You have a few options even though the movements are simple.
For the squats the feet are shoulder width apart with the heels down. Stand tall and lift the chest but also tighten the belly.  Reach the butt back and down while you drive the knees out. Keep the chest lifted and belly tight.  Ideally you will get the butt lower than the knees with the heels still down, knees out, chest up and no collapsing or rounding of the back.  From here drive through the heels and lift the chest to stand.

If you are feeeling super froggy today - you can add a jump and make these jump squats! Make sure that you are comfortable doing it and that you get your heels back down after the jump to go into the next rep.

If you are unable to get that low without collapsing or coming really forward - you may choose to use something as a counter balance or squat to a target that is a bit higher but allows you to keep good positions.

If you didn't do the SHIFT workout yesterday with all of the push ups - you can do regular burpees!  We did the "no push up" version since you guys did a bunch of push ups yesterday.

These can be on the ground or elevated if necessary!

(So if you finish the Round of 4s for example...1+1+2+2+3+3+4+4=20)
Goal: Can you finish the round of 10? 12?

NOTES:

So the way this works -

1 Pull Up
1 Step Up
2 Pull Ups
2 Step Ups
3 Pull Ups...

You see where this is going!  It's going to get GRIPPY so choose smart breaks!  Choose a pull up method that you are capable of stringing at least 5 pull ups together (when you are fresh anyway).  The goal is to get through the round of 10s +!

For the pull-ups you're going to want to choose an option that is going to be best for your grip, aka: spend as little time doing them as possible.  So kip/butterfly will be great options.  Strict is totally fine, but know yourself and your limitations.  If 6-7-8 + strict pull ups will start to take you forever - then maybe stick with a set number each time and only add reps on the step-ups.

Subs for pull-ups would be banded pullups, trx/ring row, don't ever sleep on the ring rows, these will add up extremely fast.  Barbell T row(same as ring row but using a racked barbell).  Lastly with grip being an issue, DB bent over rows.  Not a good idea to do jumping with step-ups in the workout.

For the DB step-ups. Choose a box that is roughly 22-24" for men and 18-20" for women
You will hold 1 DB in each hand at your side.  Facing the box you will step up with one leg, with the whole foot on the box and drive through you heel!  Stand all the way up onto the box, then back down, alternate legs each rep.

Subs for stepups, could be single arm DB, holding a DB in just one hand, or holding a DB in the goblet position.  Also lowering the box height, or performing to something like a step, and simply step up and then back down alternating legs each rep.  You can also perform unweighted step-ups as well.

This version is less grippy than the dumbbell version. Just make sure you are on a step that you are comfortable stepping up and down with the bar on your back.

For the BB step-ups. Choose a box that is roughly 22-24" for men and 18-20" for women
You will will start with the BB from the ground on rack. From the ground, with good form, perform a clean and pop the bar over the head and onto the back. Facing the box you will step up with one leg, with the whole foot on the box and drive through you heel!  Stand all the way up onto the box, then back down, alternate legs each rep.

Subs for stepups could be  lowering the box height, or performing to something like a step, and simply step up and then back dan alternating legs each rep, you can also sub unweighted stepups as well.

Simple SHIFT Warm Up

3 Rounds
20 Taps
10 Skip Overs
10 Toe Touches
3 No Push Up Inchworm
5 Push Up / Knee Push Up
2 Lunge with Twist Right
2 Lunge with Twist Left
10 Air Squats

Increase speed each round!

SHIFT WORKOUT

12 Min AMRAP
(As Many Rounds and Reps as Possible in 12 Min)

4 Ring/TRX Rows
8 Alternating Step Ups

(See sub options for rows in write up)

These step ups are written as unweighted - but if you want to do them with some light dumbbells - we say go for it!

Score: Total Number of Completed Rounds + Any Additional Reps
Goal: 10 Rounds +

NOTES:

This one is SUPER simple and you should be able to keep moving for the entire 12 min with these movements and rep numbers.

For the Ring or TRX Rows remember that the more parallel your body is to the ground, the more difficult these become.  We don't need you guys to be unbroken for the entire 12 min on these - but you should always be able to at least do them in 2-2.  Always start with straight arms at the bottom and pull the body all of the way up at the top.

Another option if you have this available is a pull up with the bar in the rack and your feet on the ground. You can do this like the ring rows in more of a laid back set up - or you can set up and pull your body more upright like a regular pull up.

If you don't have ANY of these options - today we would like to see you do 4 single arm bent over rows right and then 4 left.  Lean on a box, bench, or even against the wall. Allow the dumbbell or kb to hang and pull it to the rib cage with the elbow going back.

For the step ups choose a height that is challenging but both safe and something you are comfortable stepping up AND down on.  Alternate feet with each step - so for each set of 8 you end up doing 4 per side.  Make sure you put your whole foot on the step and drive out of the heel.  Don't allow the knee to cave in!

WORKOUT

Each Round is a 3 Min AMRAP with 2 Min Rest Between
Each 3 Min AMRAP (As Many Rounds and Reps as Possible in 3 Min)

20 Double Unders
10 Push Press

Rest 2 Min Between AMRAPS

RX Men: 95#
RX Women: 65#

RX + Men: 115#+
RX + Women: 75# +

Score: Total Completed Rounds + Any Additional Reps Added Up at the End

Goal: 3  Rounds + in Each AMRAP

***Choose a weight that you think you can go unbroken for the most part.  Make sure double under number or sub can be done in 30 seconds or even less each time.

So the way this works is you will start the clock and do as many rounds as you can of 20 double unders (or sub) and 10 push press until the clock hits 3 min.  Let's say you get 3 rounds + 8 Double Unders....during your 2 min rest write that down as your score for round 1.  When the 2 min rest is up - start with a fresh round.  Ideally try to match or beat your score each time.  At the end add up all of the total completed rounds + all of the random additional reps for your score.

3 min will go by FAST - and you won't get much work done if you choose the wrong weight or double under sub.  Make sure you get the right stimulus - which is constant movement for 3 min each time!

For the Double Unders, you're not wanting these to take you the full time to complete.  20DU should take you about :30. If it's taking you upwards of a minute, think about doing as many as you can in a given time frame, like : Max Effort DU for :45 so you're getting good practice.

Our favorite sub for double unders is the dumbbell hop over.  If dubs just aren't happening today go with that.  Other option is to do 40 single unders each time!

For the push press you will have your bar on the shoulders with the elbows high.  Feet are between hip and shoulder width apart.   Chest up.  Belly tight.  Dip keeping the heels down and allowing the knees to come forward.  Reach the hips back slightly but keep the chest lifted.  Stand up hard and fast.  Pop the barbell off of the shoulders and finish with a press straight to lock out.  Biceps by the ears.  Standing tall.  Locked out elbows.  Belly tight.

For the PP Subs could include, lowering the weight, or plate presses.

Don't make the rest shorter!  Go harder and use the full rest to go hard again!

Our favorite sub for double unders is the dumbbell hop over.  If dubs just aren't happening today go with that.  Other option is to do 40 single unders each time!

For the handstand push ups please make sure you have a safe set up with a pad under the head.  Control the lower and use the tripod position at the bottom.  You may do kipping, strict, deficit, or even pike on the box.  Keep the belly tight.  Drive the head through the arms at the top.  Break or lower the number if it starts to get sloppy.

This version of the workout today is almost exactly the same as Program A - just. a few minor tweaks!!

3 Rounds TOTAL
Each Round is a 3 Min AMRAP (As Many Rounds and Reps as Possible in 3 Min)

20 Taps or Single Unders
7 Press

Rest 1 Min After Each 3 Min AMRAP

Idea weight for Men: SINGLE 30-50# KB/DB - OR - PAIR of lighter DBs
Idea weight for Women: SINGLE 12-25# KB/DB - OR - PAIR of lighter DBs

Score: TOTAL completed rounds + any additional reps from all 3 AMRAPS combined
Goal: 9 TOTAL Rounds +

NOTES:

So the way this works is you work - doing as many rounds of the 20-7 as you can in 3 min - then rest 1 min.  Do that a total of 3 times!  Every time you start a new 3 min AMRAP you will start fresh with a new round.  Don't forget to write down your score after each of the 3 Min amraps so you can add them together at the end!

You can choose to do 20 single under jump ropes or 20 taps each round for this!  Up to you!

For the press you will start with the weight at chest/shoulder height.  Squeeze the cheeks and tighten the belly.  Press the weight straight overhead to lock out with the belly tight, weight over the middle of the body, and biceps by the ears!

NOTES:

Guys - this is dirty.  Let's crush it.

For this workout you basically start a new round every 3 min.  Each round starts with the 200 m run, then 10 burpees, and with the remainder of the time you have left you will do as many clean and jerks (power cleans) as possible.  When the 3 min is up - you have to start over with a new 200 m run...

OUCH right?

Ok the run distance should take roughly 45 seconds to 1:15.  If you are unable to run for space or weather reasons today you can do 1 min jump rope, low step ups, or mtn climbers (ouch shoulders).

The 10 burpees shouldn't take ANY longer than 1 min even on the later rounds.  Keep moving!

These may be jump in and out, step in and out, no push up, or even elevated burpees!

For the clean and jerks you will do a power clean:

Bar starts on the ground with the feet under the hips and the hands just outside the legs.  You have a hinge at the hip and slightly bent knees with the belly tight, chest up and arms straight.  The bar is pulled in close to the body.  Lift the bar by lifting the chest and keeping the heels down and arms straight.  Once past the knees you will extend the hips by standing up hard and fast.  Shrug the shoulders and THEN allow the elbows to bend high and outside as you pull the bar up the body and YOURSELF down underneath it slightly.  Elbows shoot around and through fast.  Catch the bar on the front of the shoulders in a partial squat with elbows in front.  Heels down, knees bent and out, belly tight.

From here you can stand and re-set or go straight into the jerk.

From the dip position (heels down, knees bent slightly, chest up, shoulders over hips) you will stand up hard and fast to pop the bar off of the shoulders.  Move the face back.  Press weight up and yourself down to once again catch in a partial squat.  Bar over the middle of the body with biceps by ears and belly tight.  Stand to finish.

Another Program C option is to swap out the 200 m run with a sled push or pull that takes similar amount of time.  We recommend something that you can actually jog with instead of going super heavy.

Guys - this is dirty.  Let's crush it.

For this workout you basically start a new round every 3 min.  Each round starts with the 200 m run, then 10 burpees, and with the remainder of the time you have left you will do as many clean and jerks (power cleans) as possible.  When the 3 min is up - you have to start over with a new 200 m run...

OUCH right?

Ok the row/bike distance should take roughly 45 seconds to 1:15.

If you choose to use sandbag or sled option - just note that in comments!

The 10 burpees shouldn't take ANY longer than 1 min even on the later rounds.  Keep moving!

These may be jump in and out, step in and out, no push up, or even elevated burpees!

For the clean and jerks you will do a power clean:

Bar starts on the ground with the feet under the hips and the hands just outside the legs.  You have a hinge at the hip and slightly bent knees with the belly tight, chest up and arms straight.  The bar is pulled in close to the body.  Lift the bar by lifting the chest and keeping the heels down and arms straight.  Once past the knees you will extend the hips by standing up hard and fast.  Shrug the shoulders and THEN allow the elbows to bend high and outside as you pull the bar up the body and YOURSELF down underneath it slightly.  Elbows shoot around and through fast.  Catch the bar on the front of the shoulders in a partial squat with elbows in front.  Heels down, knees bent and out, belly tight.

From here you can stand and re-set or go straight into the jerk.

From the dip position (heels down, knees bent slightly, chest up, shoulders over hips) you will stand up hard and fast to pop the bar off of the shoulders.  Move the face back.  Press weight up and yourself down to once again catch in a partial squat.  Bar over the middle of the body with biceps by ears and belly tight.  Stand to finish.

Score: Total Reps of Clean and Jerks ONLY

Goal: 50 Clean and Jerks +Ok so every 3 min one person runs and the other waits for that person to get back.  When the runner gets back he/she tags partner who has the remainder of 3 min to do 10 burpees and max clean and jerks.  Here's where it sucks - when 3 min hits - the person who just did the burpees and clean and jerks is the one who has to run.  Get it?  Keep rotating in that fashion until BOTH partners have been the runner and clean and jerker 5 times. (30 Min)

Ok the run distance should take roughly 45 seconds to 1:15.  You may also bike or row, sled.

The 10 burpees shouldn't take ANY longer than 1 min even on the later rounds.  Keep moving!

These may be jump in and out, step in and out, no push up, or even elevated burpees!
