WORKOUT

Street Parking Vault: "CATORCE"

Every 5 Min for 4 Rounds:

Run 400 Meters
12 Pull Ups
24 Wall Balls

RX Men: 18-20#ish Ball
RX Women: 13-15#ish Ball

RX+ Men and Women: 18 Pull Ups and 36 Wall Balls

**Strict Pull Up Option: 7-10 Strict Pull Ups Per Round

Score: Fastest Round ONLY - BUT you still have to be able to finish all rounds under 5 min.

Goal: Under 4:00

Even though your score is the fastest round, you still want to finish every round with enough time to take a few breaths and recover just a little bit before going again. Choose a pull up variation that allows you to get all 12 reps in at most 3 sets.

For the 400m run, you're working with 2:00-2:30. Shorten the distance as needed to fit the time window. If unable to run due to space or weather purposes - 2 min double/single unders, low step ups, Mtn Climbers or toe taps or step ups to a low target.

For the pull ups you may do strict, kipping/butterfly or ring/trx row. You may also do a row with the bar on the rack OR do a bent over row if none of those other options are available. You may do banded pull ups but control the descent and be sure to avoid the bounce out of the bottom.

Whatever you choose, 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!

For the wall balls, hold the ball at your chest with the elbows tucked in. Feet under the shoulders with heels down. Chest up and belly tight! Reach the butt back and down. Keep the heels down. Drive the knees out. Get the butt lower than the knees at the bottom. No plopping or rounding! Use the power from your legs to help throw the ball!

When you catch it. Catch first and then squat.

For the wall balls the ideal target height is roughly 9-10', but whatever you can make work is fine! If you have low ceilings or no ball you can sub lightweight thrusters. We prefer either a single heavy dumbbell (like the video) or 2 light dumbbells/bar.

MAMA MODIFICATIONS

RUN/JOG - To avoid the added pressure to the pelvic floor that the impact from running can create, sub: Taps, Row, Bike, Farmer Carry, Sled Push/Drag, Quick Step Ups. 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 scaling the distance that you run so that you can focus on your posture, breathing mechanics, and managing the pressure of your or and pelvic floor.

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, 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.

WALL BALL - If you have a hard time maintaining a neutral spine throughout the movement or if you tend to "bottom out" try subbing: DB/WB Thruster, Lower Target Wall Ball Toss, Box/Target Supported Squat for Wall Ball

Simple Shift Warm Up

SHIFT WORKOUT

Street Parking Vault: SHIFT "CATORCE"

4 Rounds

Each Round is a 4 Min AMRAP
(As Many Rounds and Reps in 4 Min)

30 Sec Jog/Run/Walk, Bike, Row, Taps,
Single Unders
6 Ring/TRX Rows or Upright Rows
8 Air Squats

When the clock hits 4 min - REST 1 MIN!!

No weight needed today!

Score: Total Number of Completed Rounds + any Additional Reps from ALL 4 AMRAPs

Goal: 12 Rounds + (That's 3 Rounds Per 4 Min AMRAP)

For this workout you will go through the 30 seconds of movement, followed by 6 ring rows, 8 air squats for 4 minutes. When the clock hits 4 minutes you will rest 1 minute and then repeat that cycle for a total of 4 rounds or 20 minutes.

For the 30 seconds you can choose between a Jog/Run/Walk, Bike, Row or Taps.

If you are doing the TRX/Ring/Bar in Rack option - just remember that the more parallel your body is to the ground - the more difficult these become. Since it's only 6 at a time - challenge yourself! Make sure you start with straight arms at the bottom - keep the body rigid and belly tight - and pull all of the way to your chest at the top.

For the upright rows you will either have a single DB/KB in both hands or a pair of pretty light dumbbells (one in each hand). The weight will start held at the waist with you standing tall. Shrug the shoulders up - keep shoulder blades pulled back - then pull the elbows high and outside to bring the weight up the body. This should look like you are zipping up your jacket. Elbows should stay back! Make sure not to let the shoulders and elbows roll forward. Bring to chest height. Lower under control.

For the air squats you will have the feet shoulder width apart with the heels down. Lift the chest and tighten the belly. Reach the butt back and down as you drive the knees out. Ideally you will get your butt lower than your knees at the bottom with the chest up and belly still tight! Drive through the heels and drive the knees out to stand completely.

If you have a tendency to collapse at the bottom you may try using a counter balance. If you have pain or issue in the bottom from current or past injury or issue - you may choose to squat to a slightly higher target. Still focus on heels down, knees out, chest up!

MAMA MODIFICATIONS

KB/DB DEADLIFT - If you’re pregnant and the shape of your belly is making reaching the floor difficult or if you're postpartum and managing core rehab through practice of proper posture, sub: Sumo Stance KB/DB Deadlift or elevate the DBs/KB so it’s not so low to the ground when you pick it up. If you are working on healing any pelvic floor dysfunction make sure you are able to breathe properly throughout the entire range of motion and that you are not bracing or bearing down.

HANG POWER CLEAN - For pregnant mamas with bellies that interrupt the most efficient path of the bar, be sure to sub DBs for the bar so you are not training inefficient movement patterns.

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

SHIFT WORKOUT

3 Rounds

Each Round is a 4 Min AMRAP
(As Many Rounds and Reps As Possible in 4 Min)

9 DB/KB Deadlifts
6 DB/KB Hang Power Cleans
3 Burpees

Rest 1 Min Between AMRAPs

Suggested Weight Range Men: 20-40# Single DB/KB - or - pair of lighter dumbbells
Suggested Weight Range Women: 12-30# Single DB/KB - or - pair of lighter dumbbells

Score: Total # of Completed Rounds + Any Additional Reps from Each AMRAP

Goal: 8+ Rounds

The way this one works is you'll do 9 deadlifts, 6 hang power cleans, and 3 burpees as many times as you can in 4 minutes, ten rest 1 minute, and repeat that cycle twice more for a total of 3 rounds!

To hit the goal, you'll need to complete just under 3 rounds during each AMRAP. That means each round should take no more than 1:30!

For the deadlifts you will either have a single KB/DB between the feet or a pair of lighter dumbbells on the outsides of the feet. Make sure the knees are bent, chest is up, arms are straight, and heels are down in the set up. Lift the chest and squeeze the butt to stand! Lower by reaching butt back and bending the knees while you keep the belly tight and chest up!

For the dumbbell hang power clean, you hold the dumbbells at the hips. Do a small dip - jump and shrug the shoulders then pull the dumbbells up to the shoulders. The idea here is to think about jumping and then pulling/guiding the dumbbells to your shoulders. Try to not just do bicep curls!

For the burpees you may do regular, knee push up burpees, no push up burpees, or even an elevated burpee!

PROGRAM A

WARM UP
Box Jump Warm Up
Shoulder Warm Up

WORKOUT

Part 1:

Every 3 Min for 4 Rounds (12 Min)

3 Wall Walks
6 Seated Box Jumps

These should be for QUALITY! Make them pretty! Rest for the rest of the 3 min window after work is completed.

RX+: 5 Wall Walks / 10 Seated Box Jumps

No Score for this Part

Rest 3 Min Before Part 2

This would be a good one to practice wall walks if you are new to the movement. Just take it slow and only go as high up the wall as you feel comfortable.

Set up for wall walks in the bottom of a push up with feet against the wall. Walk your feet up the wall as you press to the top of a push up then back toward the wall. Keep your belly tight and do not overarch you back. Touch your chest to the wall then walk your hands out and feet down to the floor.

Don't slide or flop!

Modify by going only part of the way up or doing pike up on the box, push up + tap tap or 6 inchworms.

Pike up on the box starts in the top of a push up with toes on a box. Keep your toes planted and walk your hands toward the box until you are in a 90° pike position at the top. Then, walk your hands back out.

For seated box jumps we will start in a seated position at or just below parallel.  You can sit on a low box, stack of plates - or whatever you can just to make that happen.

In this seated position you will have the heels down roughly hip width apart. You need to be completely sitting - with the chest up.

Use the ARMS!! Throw arms and jump from that dead stop position!

You will want to think of exploding UP and then pulling the knees up FAST!!

Be careful! No bloody shin pics PLEASE!!

You can also do a seated vertical jump. From the seated position, swing the arms and jump as high as you can.

Another option is an explosive squat. Start seated, holding a DB/KB to your chest and stand up as fast as you can.

Make sure you start each rep from a complete standstill in whatever variation you choose.

Part 2:

AMRAP 9 Min:
(As Many Rounds and Reps as Possible in 9 Min)

9 Push Up Tap + Tap
9 Box Jumps

Box Height Suggestions:
Men: 22-24"
Women: 18-20"

RX+ Option: Use a higher box.

OR

RX+ Option: Increase Reps to 18 and 18 (this will require more stamina in both movements)

(Probably don't do BOTH RX+ Options)

Score: Total Number of Completed Rounds + any Additional Reps

Goal (RX): 9-14 Rounds
Goal (RX+): 5-7 Rounds

If you think you can hold a round every 30 seconds at 9-9, consider going RX+.

For the push up plus taps we want to see a rigid body position with shoulders above or beyond the wrists and hands just wider than shoulder width. Squeeze your butt, your thighs and your belly. No sagging hips or snaking.

Keep your elbows within 45 degrees to the body as you lower your chest and thighs to make contact with the floor. Stay engaged. Press back up to the the top until arms are totally straight. Then tap your left shoulder with your right hand and your right shoulder with your left hand.

If you need to lower to your knees for the push ups go for it. Go back to your toes for the taps.

For the box jumps, choose a box that is roughly 22-24in for men and 18-20in for women if you can! If that height is too much for you - go lower! Make sure when you jump and when you land that the knees do not cave in! Stand all of the way up on your box/bench. You may also sub step ups or lunges.

Or, if you don't have something to jump ON - find something to jump OVER!

We would love to see you actually jump if possible! Even if you are jumping on a few stacked bumper plates or over your laundry basket!

Make sure you choose a load on the bench press that you are comfortable with. Keep it safe!!

Lying face up on the bench, pull the bar from the rack out over your chest so your arms are vertical. Push your feet down into the floor. Draw your low back, shoulders and the back of your head down into the bench. Lower the bar straight down with control until it touches your chest an inch or two above the sternum. Keep your elbows about 45 degrees from your torso, wrists straight. Press the bar all the way back up until your arms are straight to complete the rep.

You could also use your dumbbells for bench press. If you have a lighter pair, increase the reps to 12-18 per round.

For the box jumps, choose a box that is roughly 22-24in for men and 18-20in for women if you can! If that height is too much for you - go lower! Make sure when you jump and when you land that the knees do not cave in! Stand all of the way up on your box/bench. You may also sub step ups or lunges.

Or, if you don't have something to jump ON - find something to jump OVER!

We would love to see you actually jump if possible! Even if you are jumping on a few stacked bumper plates or over your laundry basket!

MAMA MODIFICATIONS

WALL WALKS - Please measure risk vs. reward when considering if you can/should perform this movement. If you are unable to maintain midline stability and proper breathing mechanics throughout the duration of the entire movement please sub: Inchworms, Box/Pike Walk outs, Seated Shoulder Press, or Shoulder Taps

BOX JUMP/JUMP/SKIP OVERS - This is going to be all about managing the impact and pressure to your core and pelvic floor. You can ALWAYS substitute Step Ups, Pause Squats, or Hip Thrusts 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.

INCHWORMS - If you have any trouble managing the pressure in your belly with this movement or if you're pregnant and find it uncomfortable, you can sub Bear Crawl, Bear Pose Shoulder Taps, Elevated Shoulder Taps, Seated or Strict Alternating Shoulder Press.

Score: Total # of Completed Rounds + Any Additional Reps from Each AMRAP

Goal: 7+ Rounds

For this workout, you'll perform 5 inchworms and 10 pause squats as many times as you can in 7 minutes, then rest 2 minutes before completing another 7-min AMRAP of 5 push up + taps and 10 jump overs!

For the inchworms you will place the hands on the ground in front of the feet. Walk them away from your hands until you are in the top of a push up. From here you will perform a push up by either going to your knees, or staying on your toes. Either way make sure that the elbows go back and that the hands are just wider than the shoulders. Keep the belly tight. Press back up to the top of the push up, then walk the hands  back to the feet and stand.

If you need to take out the push up completely - that is fine.

For the pause squats you will have the feet shoulder width apart with the heels down. Lift the chest and tighten the belly. Reach the butt back and down as you drive the knees out. Ideally you will get your butt lower than your knees at the bottom with the chest up and belly still tight! Pause for 2 seconds here then drive through the heels to stand as fast as you can.

If you have a tendency to collapse at the bottom you may try using a counter balance. If you have pain or issue in the bottom from current or past injury or issue - you may choose to squat to a slightly higher target.

For the push ups + taps you may do regular push ups, knee push ups, or even elevated push ups.

Once you've completed the push up, you will bring your right hand to your left shoulder, then take your left hand to touch your right shoulder. Try to not let the hips rotate, or allow the butt to pop up when you lift your hand up. You can do the taps on your toes, Kees, or even elevated!

The Push Up + Taps is 1 push up + tap right shoulder + tap left shoulder = 1 rep.

For the DB/KB hop over you will stand facing the DB/KB and jump over it. You can scale to a line or a skip over if you are intimidated to go over something. You may also sub low step ups.

#blamemiranda

You'll need to maintain a pace of 2:00-2:50 per round in order to hit the goal. Choose a weight on the snatches and thrusters you can complete the 8 reps of each in under 45 seconds.

For the 200m run, you're working with a minute or less. Shorten the distance as needed to fit the time window. If unable to run due to space or weather purposes - 1 min double/single unders, low step ups, Mtn Climbers or toe taps to a low target.

The double dumbbell snatch is just that. You will have a dumbbell in each hand between the feet. Keep the chest up and weight in the heels. Bend the knees slightly and hinge at the hips. Arms are long and straight. Stand with the dumbbells by driving the heels into the ground and lifting the chest. Keep the back flat. Once past the knees you will almost jump. Shrug the shoulders and allow the momentum to bring the dumbbells up as you guide them in a partial swing, but not allowing them to get too far away in motion. Finish with a press to lockout with the biceps by the ears and the belly tight.

When lowering the dumbbells DO NOT GET SLOPPY! Keep the heels down and keep the back flat. Lower under control back to the ground.

Only one head of each dumbbell must touch the ground at the bottom of every rep.

If this is not feeling right, switch to a single dumbbell snatch, alternating arms each rep.

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.

For the power snatch the bar will start on the ground. Heels are roughly shoulder hip width apart. Grip is wide and arms are long and straight. Hinge forward at the hip and bend the knees slightly. Chest up and higher than hips. Back flat.

Drive through the heels and lift the chest. Keep the arms straight as you stand. Pull the bar into the body. Rotate the torso upright once past the knees. Stand up hard and fast. SHRUG the shoulders. Keep the bar close! Pull the elbows high and outside as the bar travels up the body. Rotate the bar and press out overhead FAST! At the same time pull yourself under slightly by reaching the butt back and bending the knees. Keep the heels down, chest up, belly tight, and knees out! Think PUNCH to lock out! Belly tight. Butt squeezed! Bar over the middle of the body. Stand fully to complete the rep.

If you are struggling to find good positions off the ground, or are newer to this movement, modify by switching to hang power snatches.

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.

MAMA MODIFICATIONS

RUN/JOG - To avoid the added pressure to the pelvic floor that the impact from running can create, sub: Taps, Row, Bike, Farmer Carry, Sled Push/Drag, Quick Step Ups. 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 scaling the distance that you run so that you can focus on your posture, breathing mechanics, and managing the pressure of your or and pelvic floor.

DB SNATCH/HANG SNATCH - You can always choose a lighter weight or go from the hang position. If you're not comfortable going over head right now or find that you are coning during the movement you might want to consider subbing Russian Kettlebell Swings

GOBLET 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.

Goal: 15 Min or Less

For this workout, you'll start with 1 minute of movement from the choices listed, then you'll complete 8 hang power snatches on both arms, then 8 goblet squats. Once you've done that, repeat 5 more times for a total of 6 rounds!

For the first part you will choose from a jog/run, row, bike, taps, or single unders (jump rope), or taps. If jumping or skipping is not an option, you may sub low step ups.

For the DB Hang Power Snatches you will bring the dumbbell to the waist. You will hinge forward slightly while keeping the chest up and belly tight. Keep the heels down and knees out - arm straight. Stand up hard and fast - shrug the shoulder - punch the working elbow out to the side to keep the dumbbell close to the body as it travels UP! From here you will either punch to lockout or punch to lockout WHILE punching yourself UNDER slightly. Get the bicep by the ear and stand completely with it still there to complete the rep!

Lower back to the waist and repeat until you've completed 8 reps then switch hands.

For the Goblet Squat you will hold the weight at the chest/shoulders. Feet are shoulder width apart with the heels down. Lift the chest and tighten the belly. Reach the butt back and down. Keep the heels down as you drive the knees out. Ideally you will get the butt lower than the knees at the bottom with heels down, knees out, and chest up! Drive through the heels to stand!

If you need to - you can do these with no weight in order to get all of the way down and keep good position. Or if injury/issue prevents this you may squat to a slightly higher target!

Score: Total Time

Goal: 16-24 Min

This breaks down to 4-6 minutes per round. Go lighter for the get ups than the lunges if needed.

Lunges should be completed in no more than 2 sets.

For the double unders, your rope will pass two times under your feet for every one jump. 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 :40 each time. Consider lowering the reps to fit that time window or go with dumbbell hop overs, skip overs, or double rep single unders.

For the single arm overhead lunges you will hold the dumbbell at the overhead lockout position with the bicep by the ear. You may perform forward stepping, reverse stepping, or even walking lunges. Make sure you take a long enough step with the front leg so that your heel can be down on that foot when the back knee GENTLY touches the ground. Stand all of the way up between reps and alternate legs with each lunge. So for each set of 12 you end up doing 6 on each side. (Same arm is overhead for all 12).

Modify to a one shoulder-one farmer lunge or a front rack lunge. You could also do step ups holding a single dumbbell at the shoulder.

The 1/4 get up is just the first couple steps of the Turkish get up.

Start on your back. Holding the weight in your right hand, extend your arm straight up in the air. Bend your right knee so your right foot is flat on the floor.

Bring your left arm out to the side about 45°. Keep your right arm vertical for the entire movement. Roll onto your left forearm. Don't allow the left side of your torso sink toward the ground. Then, return with control onto your back. You can also do this unweighted if you need to.

Other options would be V-Ups, weighted sit-ups or toes to bar.

MAMA MODIFICATIONS

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.

LUNGE - If you have any pubic symphysis pain or SPD focus on keeping your pelvis neutral and your hips level. You could always do lighter weight, smaller step/less range of motion, or step up or forward instead of step back in the lunge lunge. You can also try stepping laterally onto a stack of plates or something instead of stepping back or up, sometimes this helps create some control in managing the position of the pelvis. Feel free to sub a squat or goblet squat for the lunges.

1/4 GET UPS - Focus on rolling to the side first before pressing up to seated. You could also try less weight or unweighted. You can sub Functional Progression 2 or Side Plank Options, Shin Box Flow, Waiter Walks, or Bear Pose DB Drag, or DB Windmills (SEE MAMA MODIFICATIONS MOVEMENT LIBRARY FOR DEMOS).

SIT UPS - Sit ups are a really big demand for the core and pelvic floor and for the most part are not recommended during pregnancy and the rehab/rebuilding stages of postpartum. If you are ready to start incorporating them you can try less reps, less range of motion (i.e. with pillows behind you), or supported with a band. However you can always sub one of the following movements: Functional Progressions (Choose any from 1-4), Ball Slams, KB Swings, Overhead Plate Hold/March, Palloff Press, Banded/Wallball Woodchop, Standing Cross Body Wallball Throws, Goblet Hold/Squat, Waiter Walk (SEE MAMA MODS MOVEMENT LIBRARY FOR DEMOS)

Score: Total Time

Goal: 12 Min or Less

This one is pretty straightforward - you'll do 10 sit ups, 20 lunges, and 30 single unders or taps for 4 rounds!

To finish within the goal time, you'll need to perform each round in 3 minutes or less. The lunges will likely take up the most time so be sure you're finishing those in 1:30 or less!

For the sit ups, you can do whatever you like with your feet, but we would love to see you come all of the way up at the top and touch your toes. If you need to add a little assistance like a stretchy band or rope attached to a pole to come all the way up - go for it!

No sit ups or crunching right now? You may try a dead bug, slam balls or an eye level KB Swing.

The lunges should be unweighted and alternating. This means you end up doing 10 per leg per round. These may be forward stepping, reverse stepping, or walking lunges. Make sure you take a long enough step each time that the front heel stays down, with the knee out, when the back knee lightly touches (or comes close). Keep the chest up and drive through the heel to stand completely between reps.

If you are unable to lunge you may swap out single leg alternating toe touches (like a single leg deadlift with no weight) - or alternating step ups (unless you're subbing the jump rope/taps with step ups!)

For the single unders/taps, you will do 30 per round! You may also choose to do low step ups if jumping or skipping is not an option.

However you can always sub one of the following movements: Functional Progressions (Choose any from 1-4), Ball Slams, KB Swings, Overhead Plate Hold/March, Palloff Press, Banded/Wallball Woodchop, Standing Cross Body Wallball Throws, Goblet Hold/Squat, Waiter Walk (SEE MAMA MODS MOVEMENT LIBRARY FOR DEMOS)

PROGRAM A*

PROGRAM A

WARM UP
Total Body Dumbbell Warm Up

WORKOUT

100 KB/DB Swings
100 KB/DB Goblet Squats

Every Min on the Min 4 Burpees

RX Men: 40-55#
RX Women: 25-35#

RX+ Men/Women: 6 Burpees Each Minute

Score: Total Time

Goal: 9-15 Min

**No Burpees First Minute

You'll need to get about 13-18 reps per minute in order to hit the goal, not including the burpees. Remember there are no burpees in the first minute.

Choose a load you can work for pretty much the entire minute, with minimal breaks if any other than the burpee transitions.

For the swings you will hold the weight with both hands at the waist. Feet are about shoulder width apart. Heels are down. Hinge forward at the hips and bend the knees slightly. Keep the chest lifted and heels down. Belly tight and arms straight. Pull the weight back through the legs. Stand up HARD and FAST to make the bell weightless and then (keeping the belly tight) guide the weight all of the way overhead! Allow gravity to bring it back down and back between the legs. Don't allow it to pull you forward. Keep those heels down!

Burpees start standing. Place your hands on the ground. 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. Jump up and clap with arms overhead!

For any shoulder issues, you can always take out the push up portion of the burpee!

For the goblet squat, hold your DB/KB at the chest. Feet are shoulder width apart with the heels down. Stand tall and tighten your belly. Reach the butt back and down while driving the knees out. Keep the chest lifted and belly tight. Keep going down until the butt is lower than the knees. Do not allow yourself to collapse, round your back, or plop at the bottom. In the bottom position the heels should be down, knees out, and chest up!

For the swings you will hold the weight with both hands at the waist. Feet are about shoulder width apart. Heels are down. Hinge forward at the hips and bend the knees slightly. Keep the chest lifted and heels down. Belly tight and arms straight. Pull the weight back through the legs. Stand up HARD and FAST to make the bell weightless and then (keeping the belly tight) guide the weight all of the way overhead! Allow gravity to bring it back down and back between the legs. Don't allow it to pull you forward. Keep those heels down!

For any shoulder issues, you can always take out the push up portion of the burpee!

For the goblet squat, hold your DB/KB at the chest. Feet are shoulder width apart with the heels down. Stand tall and tighten your belly. Reach the butt back and down while driving the knees out. Keep the chest lifted and belly tight. Keep going down until the butt is lower than the knees. Do not allow yourself to collapse, round your back, or plop at the bottom. In the bottom position the heels should be down, knees out, and chest up!

MAMA MODIFICATIONS

KB SWING - If you notice any coning or pulling in the overhead position of the swing, sub shoulder height or eye level swings and focus on posture and breathing mechanics. If the shape of your body (preggo bellies!) is making the bottom position a little too tight for comfort, you can sub a single arm swing!

GOBLET SQUATS - 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.
