April 8, 2020 – Competition

At Home Workout (No Equipment)
For our at-home and travel workouts, please start a clock and allow it to run throughout your training session. The entire session will take 60-minutes or less, and staying accountable to the clock will allow you to maintain the appropriate intensity and stimulus.

When the clock starts, perform…

Two sets of:
90 second Jog or High Knees in place (sub Jumping Jacks)
60 second Front Leaning Rest (Plank from Push-Up Position)
30 seconds of Right Side Plank Hip Bounces
30 seconds of Left Side Plank Hip Bounces

30 seconds Static Squat Hold

Breathe exclusively through your nose throughout this entire portion. If you find that your mouth drops open, you’re going too hard. Slow your pace and resume breathing only through your nose.

When the running clock reaches 12:00, perform the following…

Every minute, on the minute, for 24 minutes (6 sets) for max reps of:
Minute 1: 30 seconds of Mountain Climbers
Minute 2: 30 seconds of Sandbag/Backpack Squats (bearhug hold)
Minute 3: 60 seconds of Down Ups
Minute 4: Rest

When the running clock reaches 40:00, perform the following…

Three sets of:
30 seconds of Bent-Over Reverse Flys – using equal weighted textbooks, or rocks 🙂
Rest 30 seconds
45 seconds of Alternating Reverse Lunges (wearing a backpack)
Rest 15 seconds
60 seconds of Supine Leg Lifts
Rest 60 seconds

Followed by…

5-10 minutes of breath work lying down in a comfortable position.

Inhale for 3-5 seconds through your nose…
Brief hold in…
Exhale for 6-10 seconds through your mouth (like you are blowing a whistle)…
Brief hold out.

Keep the ratio of inhale to exhale at a 1:2.

Coaches Note:
Today’s intention is all about pushing through discomfort.

The 24 minute EMOM is going to test you both physically and mentally. It will be very easy to not push as hard on the Down Ups knowing that there is no set number of reps. What we want you to do is set a goal in your head, something that will challenge you, and fight to finish that number of reps each time through. Remember, you get a minute rest afterwards :).

Our accessory work for today is purely posterior and midline based. A strong posterior chain and a strong midline lead to a strong everything, so we are going to give you a set time to work to get as many QUALITY reps in as you can. Your midline and glutes should be fired up by the end of this!
