RX Women: 65#-75#

RX + Men: 135# +
RX + Women: 95# +

** Everyone will have one movement that is their limiting factor.  Pick the weight based off of that movement.

Score is weight used - note successful completed rounds in comments.

NOTES:

Many of you will need to go lighter than RX for this workout.  Drop the ego and choose a weight that is challenging for yourself but where you can move well with.

Many of you will also be able to go heavier than RX +.  Same thing - choose a weight that is challenging for you, but you will be able to move well and safe.

Do not be afraid to change the weight mid workout.  This could be because the weight you chose is too light - or because it's too heavy.  If you are still breezing through at 7 min in - add a little.  If you are BARELY making it at 7 min in - you're in trouble and you should probably take some off.

For the power clean - you will pull each rep from the ground.  There should be a slight bend in the knee, heels down, chest up, arms straight, bar close to the body.  Pull the bar from the ground by driving your heels in and lifting your chest.  Pull the bar into the body.  Once past the knees you will jump and shrug the shoulders.  Keep the bar close to the body as you pull the elbows high and outside and pull your body DOWN into a partial squat.  The bar will land on the shoulders with the elbows high.

For the front squats - you will reach your butt back and down.  Feet should be shoulder width with the heels down.  Keep the elbows high and belly tight with the bar resting on the shoulder.  Drive the knees out and get to where your butt is lower than your knees at the bottom with the chest up and heels down.  Drive through the heels and reach up with the elbows/chest to stand.

You may jerk or push press.  Either way you will dip the torso straight down keeping the bar on the shoulders with the belly tight.  Keep the heels down and allow the knees to come forward and slightly out.  Drive through the heels HARD out of the dip to send the power from your legs INTO the bar.  From here move your face out of the way and either press the bar Up (push press) or press yourself down as the bar goes up (push jerk).  Stand with belly tight!

Do not be afraid to change the weight mid workout.  This could be because the weight you chose is too light - or because it's too heavy.  If you are still breezing through at 7 min in - grab heavier bells OR add a rep of each.  If you are BARELY making it at 7 min in - you're in trouble and you need to lower.

For the power clean - you will pull each rep from the ground.  There should be a slight bend in the knee, heels down, chest up, arms straight.  Pull the weight from the ground by driving your heels in and lifting your chest.  Once past the knees you will jump and shrug the shoulders and pull your body DOWN into a partial squat.  The dumbbells will land on the shoulders with the elbows high.

For the front squats - you will reach your butt back and down.  Feet should be shoulder width with the heels down.  Keep the elbows high and belly tight with the dumbbells resting on the shoulder.  Drive the knees out and get to where your butt is lower than your knees at the bottom with the chest up and heels down.  Drive through the heels and reach up with the elbows/chest to stand.

PROGRAM C:

20 Min EMOM
Every Minute on the Minute for 20 Minutes

3 Sandbag to Shoulder(s)
3 Sandbag Front Squats
3 Sandbag Jerks

All 9 reps performed every minute.

No RX or RX+ here.  If your bag is light you may want to go up in weight.

Score is weight used (bag weight) - note successful completed rounds in comments.  Note how many reps of each movement you did per minute in comments as well.

NOTES:

For this one you can do either a sandbag to shoulder (do not go over).  This can be done with a ball.  OR you can do a sandbag power clean from the handles.

For the front squat you can rack the bag across your shoulders - or you can bear hug it.

You can do shoulder to shoulder push press or you can do actual sandbag push press from the front of the shoulders.

Can't fit all instructions for each.  But here are the general notes:

For this movement, the sandbag will start on the ground. Feet under the hips roughly. Knees are bent, sandbag is close to the body, chest is up, arms are straight. Stand by driving the heels down and lifting the chest. Stand up hard and fast (jump) SHRUG the shoulders. Shoot the elbows around and forward FAST to get the sandbag on the biceps with the elbows high. As you shoot the elbows around you will pull yourself under into a partial front squat. Stand fully to complete the movement.

"For these squats, make sure the sandbag is resting on the biceps with the elbows high!  Keep the chest up, but do not overextend the back.  Keep the belly tight!

Reach the butt back and down trying to keep the elbows and chest up as you descend. Drive the knees out and keep the heels down throughout. The bottom position should be where the butt is lower than the top of the knee.  Do not collapse in this position.  Do not go so low that the back starts to round.

To stand, lead with the chest and elbows - keeping the sandbag on the biceps and elbows high. Stand fully for each rep.

For the push press you will have your sandbag on the biceps 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 sandbag off of the biceps and finish with a press straight to lock out.  Biceps by the ears.  Standing tall.  Locked out elbows.  Belly tight.

PROGRAM B:

8 Rounds

Every Round is 90 Seconds of work + 30 Seconds of Rest

In the 90 Second Window Complete:

30 Double Unders
8 Toes to Bar OR Shoot Throughs
Max Reps Power Clean

**Don't forget the 30 seconds rest each time!!  So Round 2 starts at 2:00 - and so on!!

RX +: 40 Double Unders and 10 Toes to Bar/Shoot Throughs

2 Scores:

Score 1: Weight You Chose for the Workout (choose something challenging but that allows you to move correctly)

Score 2: Total Number of Power Clean Reps for All 8 Rounds Combined

NOTES:

Goal: Choose a weight that will allow you to get between 4-7 Reps per round.  No more than 8.  No less than 3.This one is gonna be spicy.  The goal is to finish your double unders and toes to bar or shoot throughs in about a minute.  We want you to have around 30 seconds each time for cleans.  If you find yourself having MUCH MORE than 30 seconds or getting more than about 8 cleans per round - up the reps to RX+ - or if you feel you can up the weight with good technique - do that!

The shoot throughs will take most people longer than the toes to bar.  You may also sub knees up or V-Ups for that part.

For the double unders you will want to choose a number that takes you 45 seconds or less.  If you need to lower the number to 20 in order to make that happen - do it!  OR if that's still not happening - go to 45 seconds of singles or 30 dumbbell hop overs!

For the toes to bar - the goal would be to do these in no more than 2 sets each time.  Focus on that big pull of the chest THROUGH then pressing against the bar as you bring the legs and toes UP!

You may sub knees up, v-ups, or even reg sit ups!

If you choose the shoot through option you will start with each hand on some sort of riser.  You can use parallettes or even stacks of plates or boxes.  Start in a plank position.  Arms straight.  Tuck the knees and swing your body through to a front plank.  Straight body position.  Tuck the knees and go back to the start.  That is 1 rep.

For this movement, the bar will start on the ground. Hands will be outside of the legs. Feet under the hips roughly. Knees are bent, bar is close to the body, chest is up, arms are straight. Stand by driving the heels down and lifting the chest. Stand up hard and fast (jump) SHRUG the shoulders. Pull the elbows high and outside to keep the bar close. Shoot the elbows around and through FAST to get the bar on the shoulder with the elbows high. As you shoot the elbows around you will pull yourself under into a partial front squat. Stand fully to complete the movement.

NOTES:

This one is gonna be spicy.  The goal is to finish your double unders and toes to bar or shoot throughs in about a minute.  We want you to have around 30 seconds each time for cleans.  If you find yourself having MUCH MORE than 30 seconds or getting more than about 10-12 cleans per round - up the reps to RX+ - even if you keep the weight on the dumbbells the same!

The shoot throughs will take most people longer than the toes to bar.  You may also sub knees up or V-Ups for that part.

For the double unders you will want to choose a number that takes you 45 seconds or less.  If you need to lower the number to 20 in order to make that happen - do it!  OR if that's still not happening - go to 45 seconds of singles or 30 dumbbell hop overs!

For this movement, the dumbbells will start on the ground just outside of the feet. Feet under the hips roughly. Knees are bent, chest is up, arms are straight. Stand by driving the heels down and lifting the chest. Stand up hard and fast (jump) SHRUG the shoulders. Pull the DBs up the body with the elbows high and back to keep the DBs close.

Stand fully to complete the movement.

PROGRAM C:

SLED OPTION!

20 Min AMRAP
(As Many Rounds and Reps as possible in 20 Min)

6 Box Jumps
12 Wall Balls or 8 Thrusters
30 Second Sled Push

RX Men: 75# Thrusters OR 20# Wall Ball, 22-24" Box
RX Women: 55# Thrusters OR 13-15# Wall Ball, 18-20" Box

RX+: Do more rounds.  Lol.

The weight on the sled is HIGHLY dependent on what sled you have and your surface.  Find a weight and distance that you can move for the entire 30 seconds without having to stop.  Not necessarily RUNNING - but you should be able to run with it when you're fresh.

Score: Total Number of Completed Rounds+Any Additional Reps

Goal: 10 Rounds +

NOTES:

The idea here is consistent movement with small breaks here and there potentially in Wall Balls and Swings.

For the box jumps you will choose a box that is roughly 22-24" for men and 18-20" 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. Land with your entire foot on your box (or whatever you are using). You may also sub step ups. 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!

For the Wall Balls we don't want these taking you longer than about 1 min each time at the most.  If you need to break into 6-6 or even 4-4-4 when you get tired.  That is fine!  Just keep breaks short!

Wall Ball and Thruster technique are almost identical.  With the ball - you throw it - with the thruster you press to lockout!  Either way...

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.

For the sled push - test a 30 second distance in your warm up.  You can do an out and back or you can go OUT one round and BACK the other.  Don't worry about timing it each time.  Just find the distance in warm up and use it for the workout.

You can do this with a pull OR push sled!
