2021 VAULT: DUMBBELL HYPNOS

20 Minute AMRAP
(As Many Rounds and Reps as Possible in 20 Minutes)


2 Wall Walks
20 Alternating Dumbbell Snatches
24 Air Squats

Men: 40# DB
Women: 25# DB

Men: 50# DB / 3 Wall Walks / 36 Air Squats
Women: 35# DB / 3 Wall Walks / 36 Air Squats

Score: Total # of Completed Rounds + Any Additional Reps

Goal: 5-8 Rounds

COACHES NOTES
You’re shooting for each round to take between 2:30 and 4:00. Choose a weight on the snatches that you can knock them out in 2-3 sets. Twenty minutes is a long time so don’t go out too hot and heavy! Start off with a moderate effort and then sustain that through the entire workout!

WALL WALK
You will start in the bottom of a push up with the feet against the wall. You will start walking the feet up the wall and press up to the top of the push up and walk your hands back. Keep the belly tight - no sagging hips! Ideally you will walk all of the way back to the wall until the chest touches. Then you will walk the hands back out away from the wall and walk the feet down the wall. No Slamming or sliding down!

If doing full on wall walks is not comfortable for you yet - you may choose to go only part of the way up and come down. You may also scale to pike on the box ups (raise the number if these are fast for you) or even inchworms! For the pike up on the box version you will start in the top of a push up position with the feet on a bench or box. You will walk the hands back toward the box as the hips go up until you are in a 90 degree pike position at the top. You will then walk yourself back out.

CUSTOMIZATIONS
Inchworms
Pike Walk Out
4 Push Up + Taps

ALTERNATING DUMBBELL POWER SNATCH
For the single DB power snatch the dumbbell will start on the ground, feet on either side about shoulder width apart. Hinge at the hips and a bend at the knee. Chest stays lifted, arm straight and back flat. To lift drive the heels down and lift the chest. Once past the knees think - jump - shrug - pull the elbow high and outside (to keep the dumbbell close) - pull under the dumbbell slightly as you punch to lock out with the bicep by the ear. In the catch the heels are down, knees out, chest up. Stand to finish. Alternate hands with each rep. So for each set of 20 you end up doing 10 per side.

CUSTOMIZATIONS
KB/DB Swing

AIR SQUAT
Set up with feet shoulder width apart. Reach your butt back and down, with heels down, drive your knees out and keep your chest up. Get your butt below your knees at the bottom and stand all the way up at the top of each rep.

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, Bear Crawl, or Shoulder Taps

DB 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 sub KB SWINGS.

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.

Rest 1 Minute Between Each 2 Minute Interval

Suggested Box Height:
Men: 20-24"
Women: 16-20"

Extra Challenge
Men: Use a Higher Box
Women: Use a Higher Box

Score: Total Box Jump Over Reps ONLY

Goal: 60-110

COACHES NOTES
You should get about a minute each round to do box jump overs. If you think you are going to get over 15 reps each time consistently - go with the extra challenge and use a higher box. Remember that you have a full minute to rest between each round. Find a smooth steady pace on the box jump overs but keep working for the entire 2 minute interval. Especially if you are going with a higher box, it is better to relax and stay focused on a good takeoff and solid landing than to just go as fast as possible.

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 - choose one of the customizations below. We recommend NOT doing jump rope since you are already doing a lot of jumping in this one.

CUSTOMIZATIONS
1 minute of:
Low Step Ups
Toe Taps to a Low Target

BOX JUMP OVER
Choose a height that you are comfortable jumping to and stepping down from. Facing the box with feet about hip width apart, swing the arms up as you jump to the box. Land with both feet all the way on the box, then step off the other side to complete the rep. 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!

CUSTOMIZATIONS

MAMA MODIFICATIONS

Run/Jog

To manage or 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, High Knee Step Overs, Elevated 1 Legged Plank Rock.

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.

Box Jump

This is going to be all about managing the impact and pressure to your core and pelvic floor. If you feel any heaviness or pain in the pelvic floor or surrounding areas (i.e. tailbone, lower back, pubic symphysis) or if you notice symptoms like leaking pee, please consider adapting your approach or modifying the movement. The SHIFT options for smaller Jump/Skip Overs are good for helping you achieve the stimulus with a little less impact. You can ALWAYS substitute Step Ups 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.

So make sure you can do at least 4 at a time with whatever variation you choose. Try to hold on to the dumbbells for all 6 Atlas lunges each round. It's better to take a little pause between each lunge and/or before the squat without putting the DBs down than to put them down and have to pick them back up again! Make sure you are standing up all the way during each component of those Atlas lunge reps.

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.

MAMA MODIFICATIONS

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.

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.

COACHES NOTES
This workout is 21 minutes long.

0:00-5:00, 8:00-13:00, 16:00-21:00 - 400m run. Then, with the remaining time in that 5 minute window, do as many rounds and reps of the deadlifts, hang power cleans, and shoulder to overheads as possible.

5:00-8:00, 13:00-16:00 - Rest

Start on the deadlifts each round, don't pick up where you left off in the previous round. In this version, the goal would be to get 4-6 rounds in each 5 minute window. Remember you get a nice big 3 minute break between each 5 minute round. Choose a load that you could go right into the hang power cleans after your 7th deadlift and right into the shoulder to overhead after the 5th hang power clean. Or, if you do need to break mid-round, break before the last rep of the movement you are on so you can use the last rep to get into position for the next movement.

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 to a low target.

CUSTOMIZATIONS
2 minutes of:
Double/Single Unders
Low Step Ups
Mountain Climbers
Toe Taps to a Low Target

DUMBBELL DEADLIFT
The DBs will start on the ground. Feet are under the hips. Heels are down. Hips and knees are bent. Hands and grip are outside of the legs. Arms are straight. Chest is up. Belly tight. Back flat! To lift the DBs drive your heels into the ground and lift your chest. Keep arms straight, chest up and belly tight as you stand all the way up at the top.

To lower - send your butt back. Keep your chest lifted and belly tight. Keep those heels down. Once the DBs go below your knees, re-bend them and bring the DBs back to the starting position under control. Only one head of each dumbbell needs to touch at the bottom!

CUSTOMIZATIONS
Lighter weight
Sumo Deadlifts

DUMBBELL HANG POWER CLEAN
Deadlift the DBs to the "hang" position at the hips with straight arms and hands just outside of the legs. Feet are under the hips. Bend the knees, keep the heels down, and slightly hinge at the hips.

Keep the arms straight. Stand up hard and fast. Shrug the shoulders. Pull the elbows high as you pull yourself down. Shoot the elbows around and through FAST to allow the DBs to land on the shoulders with the elbows high.

Catch in a partial front squat with the heels down, knees out, chest up. Stand to complete the rep, then lower the weight back to the hips for the next rep.

SHOULDER TO OVERHEAD
You have the option of strict press, push press or push jerks, although strict press is not recommended. Set up for the push press with the dumbbells on your shoulders and elbows high. Feet hip to shoulder width apart. Chest up, belly tight. Keep your heels down, let your knees track forward as you dip your hip. Chest stays lifted. Stand up fast. As the DBs pop up off the shoulders, press straight up to lock out.

You could also do a jerk by pressing yourself under the DBs as they pop off the shoulders. Receive them overhead with arms locked out overhead, knees bent in a partial squat.

Finish standing tall, arms straight, biceps by the ears. Squeeze your butt and keep your belly tight.

When lowering the dumbbells back to the shoulders, absorb with the knees and either go into the next rep or re-set for the next rep.

Start on the deadlifts each round, don't pick up where you left off in the previous round. In this version, the goal would be to get 3-5 rounds in each 5 minute window. So you do have the opportunity to go a bit heavier in this version. Remember you get a nice big 3 minute break between each 5 minute round. Choose a load that you could go right into the hang power cleans after your 7th deadlift and right into the shoulder to overhead after the 5th hang power clean for at least a couple of the rounds if you wanted to. When you do need to break mid-round, break before the last rep of the movement you are on so you can use the last rep to get into position for the next movement.

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 to a low target.

CUSTOMIZATIONS
2 minutes of:
Double/Single Unders
Low Step Ups
Mountain Climbers
Toe Taps to a Low Target

BARBELL DEADLIFT
The bar will start on the ground. The feet are under the hips. Heels are down. Hips and knees are bent. Arms are straight. Chest is up. Belly tight. Back flat! Hands just outside the legs To lift, drive the heels into the ground and lift the chest. Keep the arms straight as you pull the bar in close to the body. Keep the arms long and straight. Keep the chest up and belly tight. Stand all of the way up at the top. Squeeze the butt. Don't lean back.

To lower - reach the butt back and slide bar down the legs. Keep the knees out of the way. Keep the chest lifted and belly tight. Keep those heels down. Once past the knees you will re-bend the knees and bring the bar back to the starting position under control.

CUSTOMIZATION
Lighter weight

BARBELL HANG POWER CLEAN
Deadlift the bar to the "hang" position at the hips with straight arms. Hands just outside of the legs and feet are under the hips. Bend the knees and keep your heels down. Allow a slight hinge at the hips. Keep the arms straight and the bar close to the body. Stand up hard and fast. Shrug the shoulders. Pull the elbows high and outside to keep the bar close as you pull yourself down under it.

Shoot the elbows around and through FAST to allow the bar to land on the shoulders with the elbows high. Land in a partial front squat with the heels down, knees out, chest up. Stand to complete the rep, then lower the bar back to the hips for the next rep.

SHOULDER TO OVERHEAD
You have the option of strict press, push press or push jerks, although strict press is not recommended. Set up for the push press with the bar on your shoulders and elbows high. Feet hip to shoulder width apart. Chest up, belly tight. Keep your heels down, let your knees track forward as you dip your hip. Chest stays lifted. Stand up fast. As the bar pops up off the shoulders, press straight up to lock out.

You could also do a jerk by pressing yourself under the bar as it pops off the shoulders. Receive the bar overhead with arms locked out overhead, knees bent in a partial squat.

Finish standing tall, arms straight, biceps by the ears. Squeeze your butt and keep your belly tight.

When lowering the bar back to the shoulders absorb with the knees and either go into the next rep or re-set for the next rep.

MAMA MODIFICATIONS

Run/Jog

To manage or 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, High Knee Step Overs, Elevated 1 Legged Plank Rock.

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.

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 Clean

For pregnant mamas with bellies that interrupt the most efficient path of the bar, you may want to consider sub DBs for the barbell so you are not putting too much load on your back or training inefficient movement patterns.

Overhead Press

Focus on proper alignment of your pelvis and spine. If you find yourself over extending in your back or coning in your belly sub less weight, Strict Press, Seated Strict Press, or even Front Raises.

Score: Total Time

Goal: 9-14 Minutes

COACHES NOTES
This is a pretty good amount of toes to bar today, make sure you warm up properly! Choose a variation that you can complete 6 reps in 1-2 sets the whole way. We are looking for :45-1:10 per round here and we don't want you spending most of that time staring up at the bar! For the step ups, choose a height that you can step up to without tipping forward. Focus on keeping the belly tight and the torso nice and upright. If you customize to lunges, consider increasing the reps to 12 per round.

TOES TO BAR
Start hanging from the bar with hands slightly wider than shoulders, shoulders drawn down away from your ears and arms straight. Think about pushing the bar out in front of you so your shoulders travel back behind the bar as you raise your toes up to touch bar between your hands. Make sure you keep that active shoulder position as you lower your feet back down and behind you.

If you don't have a pull up bar, or if you simply prefer them, go with V-Ups.

CUSTOMIZATIONS
Knee-Ups
Supine Toe Touches
Weighted Sit Ups
Regular Sit Ups

Mamas, go with eye-level swings, ball slams, deadbugs or check out the mama mods on Members-Only for more options!

GOBLET STEP UP
Hold one dumbbell or kettlebell tight to your chest. Make sure you step up with your foot completely on the box. Drive out of the heel for each rep and avoid the knee caving in. Stand up all the way at the top of the box and make sure both feet are planted. Make sure you choose a weight and a height that you are comfortable stepping up AND down.

8 Alternating Sandbag Back Rack Step Ups

Suggested Weight
Men: 50-70# Bag / 20-24" Box
Women: 25-45# Bag / 16-20" Box

Score: Total Time

Goal: 9-14 Minutes

COACHES NOTES
Slightly different variation in the movements today. Of course, you can always do toes to bar or v-ups with sandbag step ups. Just go with 6 rather than 4. We are looking for :45-1:10 per round here. Because you have less reps on the sandbag slams, focus on explosive power in the slam portion. Don't rush them. Make sure you get a good solid set up so you can be aggressive on the slam! For the step ups, choose a height that you can step up to without tipping forward. Focus on keeping the belly tight and the torso nice and upright. If you customize to lunges, consider increasing the reps to 12 per round.

SANDBAG SLAM
Start with the bag on the ground between your feet. Grip the sides of the bag and clean it to your right shoulder. Step forward with your left foot, use your hips to slam the bag straight down to the ground.

The goal is to slam the bag down as hard as possible using power from forward rotation of your hips.

Set up and bring the bar to your left shoulder and repeat.

CUSTOMIZATIONS
Sandbag Supine Toe Touches

SANDBAG BACK RACK STEP UP
Start with the bag on your back. You could also support the bag on one shoulder and just switch at the halfway point. Choose a height that allows you to really drive through the stepping foot and keep your chest up as you stand. Place your WHOLE foot on the box. Make sure you drive through the heel and stand all the way up - don't allow your knee to cave in as you stand. Alternate feet at the BOTTOM of each step. Each time you step up counts as 1 rep. So for a set of 10 you end up doing 5 per side.

CUSTOMIZATIONS
Lower stepping height
Back Rack Lunges (Increase to 12 reps)
Unweighted Step Ups

MAMA MODIFICATIONS

Toes to Bar

This movement and its scaled version of Knee Raises or V-Ups puts A LOT of pressure on the core and pelvic floor. Please consider risk vs. reward when deciding if this movement is right for you. If you feel confident with your core and pelvic floor health you can always try fewer reps to notice and manage any symptoms. You can also SUB: Functional Progressions (Choose any from 1-4), Ball Slams, KB Swings, DB Windmills, Overhead Plate Hold/March, Pallof Press, Banded/Wallball Woodchop, Standing Cross Body Wallball Throws, Side Plank Step Throughs, Heel Taps, Goblet Hold/Squat, or Waiter Walks. See MAMA MODS MOVEMENT LIBRARY FOR DEMOS.

Lying Leg Lifts

You can always scaled the range of motion with this movement and just lower or raise your legs part of the way. You can also try bending the knees or only using 1 leg at a time to relieve some of the pressure or demand on your core or you could sub Heel Taps or Functional Progression 1 If you need to scale because you're pregnant and uncomfortable lying on your back you could sub High Knee Step Overs, Blast Off Elevated Plank, Kettlebell March, Farmer Carry, or Ball Slams.

DB Step Ups

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 or shorter step/less range of motion. You can also try stepping laterally onto a stack of plates or something instead of stepping forward and up, sometimes this helps create some control in managing the position of the pelvis. Option to sub: Single Leg Glute Bridge, Hip Thrusts, Air Squat, Goblet/DB Squat

COACHES NOTES
You should be finishing up the set of 25 burpees at 6-9 minutes into the workout. If you're past the 9 minute mark at that point, customize one or more of the movements to allow for a faster pace so that you can hit the overall goal time of 18-25 minutes. You should be able to complete 50 double unders within a minute to go with the written reps. Consider reducing the reps or going with the hop overs if you need to. Choose a weight on the swings that you could do 30 reps with unbroken (not that you have to or should!) Find a pace or variation of the burpee that you can do 10-16 reps of within a minute!

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.

You and your partner are shooting to finish a round every 9-12 minutes. If you both go with double unders and one or both of you struggles to complete at least 50 within a minute (when fresh), consider reducing your half of the reps (or the overall reps if you both struggle). Choose a weight on the swings that you can complete 30 unbroken reps with. Don't be afraid to push your sets a little considering you'll have some rest time while your partner works. Find a pace or variation of the burpee that you can do 12-18 reps of within a minute!

MAMA MODIFICATIONS

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.

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 an Outside KB Swing or a Single Arm Swing.

Burpee

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
