* Indicates the original version of the workout. This means when the workout was programmed, this is the version the coach had in mind. We adapt this workout to fit the other equipment variations. As always, pick a version of the workout that works for you, your schedule, and equipment available.

PROGRAM A

PROGRAM A

WARM UP
Running Warm Up
Squat Warm Up

WORKOUT

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

Run 100 Meters
12 DB Squats

RX Men: 40# DBs
RX Women: 25# DBs

RX+ Men: 50# DBs
RX+ Women: 35# DBs

**Since Prog C is Bike/Row - if you want to  do sandbag you can swap it in here.

Score: Total Number of Completed Rounds + Any Additional Reps
**Count each run as 2 reps (50 out - 50 back)
Goal: 8-12 Rounds

Look at holding 1 round every minute to 1:20 or so. OUCH. Choose a load that you can go unbroken most of the way!

Think of the 100m run as fast, but not a full sprint. It should take less than 30 seconds. Shorten the distance as needed to fit the time window. If unable to run due to space or weather purposes - 30 seconds of double/single unders, low step ups, or toe taps to a low target.

For the squats, make sure the dumbbells are resting on the shoulders and the elbows are 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 until your butt is below your knees. Drive the knees out and keep the heels down throughout. 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 dumbbells on the shoulders and elbows high. Stand fully for each rep.

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 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.
