80 Air Squats
60 Alternating V-Ups
40 Push Ups
800m Run
40 Push Ups
60 Alternating V-Ups

Extra Challenge
Men/Women: Increase reps to 100 Air Squats / 70 Alt. V-Ups (or 50 TTB)/ 50 Push Ups each time.

Score: Total Time

Goal: 16-24 Minutes

Coaches Notes

This workout may be all bodyweight but don't underestimate its potency! Be careful not to burn out on the first set of squats. You'll be fresh so it'll be tempting - but just find a nice, steady pace. They should take no longer than 4 minutes, though. Break early on the alternating v-ups! Commit to sets of 8-12 from the start and try to hold on. Same goes for the push ups, although it may be smarter to start off with sets of 6-10! If you're past the 10-minute mark after the first 80-60-40, customize the run and/or the remaining movements so that you can move at a faster pace for the remainder of the workout. The run should be around 4-5 minutes so reduce the distance if you know it'll be longer. Do your best during that time to relax your shoulders since you're heading straight back into push ups after!

If you can't run for space or weather reasons, do this:

8 Rounds

20 Air Squats
15 Alternating V-Ups
10 Push Ups
1 Minute of Continuous Movement

The bike/row should be around 4-5 minutes so reduce the calories if you're going past 5 minutes. If you're going with the bike, try to limit how much you "press" on the handles in the last 1-2 minutes so that you're ready to do push ups when you hop off.

MAMA MODIFICATIONS

DB/Back/Front/Goblet/Air Squat

If you're trying to manage the pressure on your core and pelvic floor, you can start by simply doing something different with the way you’re breathing or how you’re holding tension in your body throughout the movement. If you feel like you need or want to customize further you can minimize some the demand by shortening the range of motion, using a target, or holding on to something for assistance. Another option for customizing is a Box Squat which can be especially helpful for building posterior chain strength. Please visit the Mama Modifications Movement Library for more options and demonstrations.

Push Up/Push Up Taps

If you’re trying to manage the pressure on your core and pelvic floor during this movement, you can start by simply doing something different with the way you’re breathing or how you’re holding tension in your body. If you feel like you need or want to customize further but still want to practice, you can always modify with with fewer reps, an Elevated Push Up or Knee Push Up. Some other options for customizing are floor press, bench press or front raise. Please visit the Mama Modifications Movement Library for more options and demonstrations.

Alt V-Up

If you’re trying to manage the pressure on your core and pelvic floor during this movement, you can start by simply doing something different with the way you’re breathing or how you’re holding tension in your body. If you feel like you need or want to customize further but still want to practice, you can try less reps, less range of motion, knees bent, just arms, or just legs. Some other options for customizing are Functional Progression 2, DB Windmills, or Banded Woodchops. Please visit the Mama Modifications Movement Library for more options and demonstrations.

Run/Jog

If you're trying to manage the pressure on your pelvic floor, you can start by simply doing something different with the way you’re breathing or how you’re holding tension in your body throughout the movement. You can also shorten the distance, lower the speed, or reduce the overall intensity to the point that you feel is still within your current threshold. Check out the SP Mamas Resources blog post on Urinary Leakage with Exercise Troubleshooting for more information and strategies. Some other options for customizing are Taps, Row, Bike, Quick Step Ups, One Legged Plank Rock, High Knee Step Up Overs, or Calf Raises.

Goal:
Score 1: 60-90 Reps
Score 2: 60-90 Reps

Coaches Notes

To hit the goal for this one, you'll need to complete 12-18 reps each minute for both movements. This is doable if you set yourself properly.

The double unders/hop overs should take around 15 seconds. You want to get to your dumbbells by the :20 second mark. If the double unders are going to be really broken up, go with hop overs.

Choose a weight that you can hit at least 7 unbroken power cleans and 8-10 unbroken push presses at a time. You can definitely break within the minute and still hit the goal if you hit those numbers in the first set and keep the break short. Know that the double unders are going to be affected by your shoulder fatigue so be aggressive with the wrists!

Use the minute rest to shake out the arms and focus on slowing your breathing.

Double/Single Unders

If you're trying to manage the pressure on your pelvic floor, you can start by simply doing something different with the way you’re breathing or how you’re holding tension in your body throughout the movement. Check out the SP Mamas Resources blog post on Urinary Leakage with Exercise Troubleshooting for more strategies. Some other options for customizing are Taps, Row, Bike, Quick Step Ups, One Legged Plank Rock, High Knee Step Up Overs, or Calf Raises. Please visit the Mama Modifications Movement Library for more options and demonstrations.

Power Clean

Having to move the bar out and around your belly can add a lot of extra strain to the lower back, so we reccomend using dumbbells instead of the barbell during the later stages of pregnancy or as your belly grows and you're no longer able to keep the bar moving in a straight line. It may also be more comfortable to start from the hang position or to adjust your stance slightly.

Shoulder Press

If you’re trying to manage the pressure on your core and pelvic floor during this movement, you can start by simply doing something different with the way you’re breathing or how you’re holding tension in your body throughout this movement. If you feel like you need or want to customize further but still want to practice, you can try less reps or less weight. Some other options for customizing are Seated Shoulder Press or Front Raises.. Please visit the Mama Modifications Movement Library for more options and demonstrations.

Jump/Skip/Hop Overs

If you're trying to manage the pressure on your pelvic floor, you can start by simply doing something different with the way you’re breathing or how you’re holding tension in your body throughout the movement. Check out the SP Mamas Resources blog post on Urinary Leakage with Exercise Troubleshooting for more strategies.

KB Swing

If you're trying to manage the pressure on your core and pelvic floor, you can start by simply doing something different with the way you’re breathing or how you’re holding tension in your body throughout the movement. If you feel like you need or want to customize further you can minimize some the demand by shortening the range of motion to an eye level swing or using a lighter weight. Some other options for customizing are single arm swings, KB Deadlift, or Sumo Stance Deadlift. Please visit the Mama Modifications Movement Library for more options and demonstrations.

Thruster/Wallball

If you're trying to manage the pressure on your core and pelvic floor, you can start by simply doing something different with the way you’re breathing or how you’re holding tension in your body throughout the movement. If you feel like you need or want to customize further you can minimize some the demand by shortening the range of motion or using a target for your squats. Another option for customizing is separating the movement into a goblet squat and a strict press. Please visit the Mama Modifications Movement Library for more options and demonstrations.

Burpee

If you’re trying to manage the pressure on your core or pelvic floor during this movement, you can start by simply doing something different with the way you’re breathing or how you’re holding tension in your body throughout the movement. If you feel like you need or want to customize further you can minimize some of the impact by stepping out and stepping in or manage some of the pressure along the abdominal wall by using your knees or with an elevated burpee. Some other options for customizing are Bear Pose Burpee, KB Swing, or Ball Slam. Please visit the Mama Modifications Movement Library for more options and demonstrations.

Box Jump

If you’re trying to manage the pressure on your pelvic floor during this movement, you can start by simply doing something different with the way you’re breathing or how you’re holding tension in your body on the take off or landing. Check out the SP Mamas Resources blog post on Urinary Leakage with Exercise Troubleshooting for more strategies. If you feel like you need or want to customize further but still want to practice jumping and landing with two feet you could try doing fewer reps or use a lower height box or step or even use an imaginary line. Some other options for customizing are Step Ups, Box Squats, or KB Swings for minimal impact. Please visit the Mama Modifications Movement Library for more options and demonstrations.

We are shooting for 1:50-2:45 per round today. Assuming the farmer carry takes about a minute that gives you roughly 1:00-1:45 for the other stuff.

Choose a load on the deadlifts that you think you can go unbroken for at least the first 5 rounds. Make sure that you push your hips back and down and lift your chest up before you stand with each rep. Moving fast through these is no excuse to get sloppy.

Choose a version of the inverted row or number of strict pull ups that is going to be challenging and that you will have to break up at some point during the workout. No bent over rows today. If you have nothing to pull up to, go with 10 alternating plank rows (5/side) or single arm bent over rows with the other hand supporting you on a box, bench, or wall.

Men/Women: If you have a heavy d-ball or sandbag - lower reps of over the shoulder to 6-8 each time and get after it!

Score: Total Time

Goal: 15-22 Minutes

Coaches Notes

We are shooting for 1:50-2:45 per round today. Assuming the suitcase carry takes about a minute that gives you roughly 1:00-1:45 for the other stuff.

For the over the shoulders, be aggressive with the hips as you stand. Try to avoid pulling too much with the arms, this will save you in the slams/rows/pull ups. For heavier bags, you may need to adjust the reps to something you can complete in under a minute.

Choose a version of the inverted row or number of strict pull ups that is going to be challenging and that you will have to break up at some point during the workout. No bent over rows today. If you have nothing to pull up to, go with 10 alternating plank rows (5/side) or single arm bent over rows with the other hand supporting you on a box, bench, or wall.

If you go with bent over slams, 10 is a very manageable number so challenge yourself to be as explosive as possible in the slam portion of the movement and take the time to set up properly for the row portion.

MAMA MODIFICATIONS

Farmer Carry

This can be a great movement for building core strength and working on stamina during pregnancy and rebuilding postpartum. Try managing the demand on your core and pelvic floor by adjusting your breath, posture, and tension strategies during the movement.

KB/DB Deadlift

If getting into or holding the set up position is uncomfortable or causes too much added strain on your abdominal wall, feel free to shorten the range of motion by elevating your DB or KBs off the ground, using a Sumo Stance, or customizing with a Goodmorning or Romanian Deadlift. If you're trying to manage the pressure on your pelvic floor, try adjusting your breath, posture, and tension strategies throughout the movement. Please visit the Mama Modifications Movement Library for more options and demonstrations.

Pull Ups

If you’re trying to manage the pressure on your core and pelvic floor during this movement, you can start by simply doing something different with the way you’re breathing or how you’re holding tension in your body. If you feel like you need or want to customize further but still want to practice, you can try fewer reps or using a band or jumping pull up for assistance. Some other options for customizing are Barbell Pull Ups, Banded Lat Pull Downs, or Bent Over Rows. Please visit the Mama Modifications Movement Library for more options and demonstrations.

For the first couple rounds, you may be able to go right into the shoulder racked lunges from the hang snatches. After that, consider doing 7 hang power snatches, take a short break, then hit the 8th rep and lower to the shoulders for the lunges.

If you aren't comfortable with the hang double dumbbell snatch, go with 12 alternating hang snatches instead.

To hit the goal for each set, you'll need to set yourself up for about :45-1:10 per round. Movements should pretty much be unbroken.

Make sure you keep your belly tight and chest up in the set up for each rep of the hang to overhead. If you 'turn off' and just ride the bag down from overhead, your back will definitely be feeling it, so focus on control.

Keep the elbows high on the front rack lunges. Lead with the elbows coming up out of each lunge.

MAMA MODIFICATIONS

DB Snatch

If you're uncomfortable with the overhead position or are trying to manage the demand on your core, you can start by simply doing something different with the way you’re breathing or how you’re holding tension in your body throughout the movement. If you feel like you need or want to customize further you can minimize some the demand by lowering the amount of weight used or repetitions done. Another good option for customizing would be an eye level KB/DB swing. Please visit the Mama Modifications Movement Library for more options and demonstrations.

Lunge/Weighted Lunge

If you're managing pubic symphysis or SI joint pain try focus on keeping your pelvis neutral and your hips level. Adjusting how your breathe, your posture, and where you're holding tension in your body throughout the movement may help as well. If you feel like you need or want to customize further but still want to practice, you can try less reps, less range of motion, or stepping laterally onto something. Some other options for customizing are goblet squat, glute bridge, or split squats. Please visit the Mama Modifications Movement Library for more options and demonstrations.

Coaches Notes

This version has 110 squat clean thrusters in it so make sure you are taking the time to do them properly and pace accordingly. Choose a load that you could definitely do 20 unbroken reps of if you wanted to. In the workout however, probably a good idea to break up those first few rounds into 2-3 sets. If the first 20 squat clean thrusters takes longer than 2:30, lower the weight or customize so you can take less breaks or shorter breaks. Know that after the round of 16 squat clean thrusters, you are about halfway done with them! Choose a burpee variation that you can do 6 reps in less than :40 each time.

Coaches Notes

Break up the reps on the squat clean thrusters early. Think something like 6-5-5, 5-5-4, and 4-4-4 for the first three rounds. Break it up into 2 sets for the next few rounds. Hold on for the last 2! When you finish the round of 12, you'll be well over half way done. If at that point, the clock is past 10 minutes, lower the weight or customize another way. Choose a variation on the burpee that you can complete 9 reps in a minute or less each time.

If you are working with a heavier bag and the goal time seems unrealistic, omit the round of 16 and start with 14 squat clean thrusters.

Coaches Notes

So the way this one works is you will do an entire round (10 and 6) while your partner rests. Then you'll switch. Your partner will do an entire round while you rest. Continue alternating until you've BOTH completed 10 rounds (20 total).

To hit the goal, you'll both need to finish your rounds within 0:45-1:15. Choose a load that you know you can go unbroken with for at least the first 5 rounds. Beyond that you definitely shouldn't be breaking more than once to get those 10 reps done. The burpees should take you no more than 30 seconds!

MAMA MODIFICATIONS

Thruster/Wallball

If you're trying to manage the pressure on your core and pelvic floor, you can start by simply doing something different with the way you’re breathing or how you’re holding tension in your body throughout the movement. If you feel like you need or want to customize further you can minimize some the demand by shortening the range of motion or using a target for your squats. Another option for customizing is separating the movement into a goblet squat and a strict press. Please visit the Mama Modifications Movement Library for more options and demonstrations.

Power Clean

Having to move the bar out and around your belly can add a lot of extra strain to the lower back, so we recommend using dumbbells instead of the barbell during the later stages of pregnancy or as your belly grows and you're no longer able to keep the bar moving in a straight line. It may also be more comfortable to start from the hang position or to adjust your stance slightly.

Burpee

If you’re trying to manage the pressure on your core or pelvic floor during this movement, you can start by simply doing something different with the way you’re breathing or how you’re holding tension in your body throughout the movement. If you feel like you need or want to customize further you can minimize some of the impact by stepping out and stepping in or manage some of the pressure along the abdominal wall by using your knees or with an elevated burpee. Some other options for customizing are Bear Pose Burpee, KB Swing, or Ball Slam. Please visit the Mama Modifications Movement Library for more options and demonstrations.
