February 1, 2017 – Masters Program

Dynamic Mobility & Activation
Two sets of:
Rocking Box Bridge x 45 seconds
Cobra Pose x 45 seconds
Hand Plank to Press Lean x 5 reps

If you are unable to do the Rocking Box Bridge, then try this:
Shoulder Opener

A.
Spend three minutes working on proper hand and foot placement for a kick to handstand

Followed by. . .

Every minute, on the minute, for 6 minutes (2 sets), complete:
Interval 1 – Donkey Kicks x 15 reps
Interval 2 – Supine Ring Rows x 8 reps @ 2112
Interval 3 – Hand Plank Shoulder Taps x 30 reps

Rest as needed, and then …

Three sets of:
Handstand Walk
Rest 90-120 seconds

40-49: 50′
50-54: 30′
55-59: 15′
60+: 10′ OR Controlled Wall Walks x 3 ascents

B.
Deadlift
*Set 1 – 10 reps @ 55% of 1-RM
*Set 2 – 10 reps @ 65%
*Set 3 – 6 reps @ 75%
*Set 4 – 6 reps @ 80%

Complete as many rounds and reps as possible in 5 minutes:
Deadlift x 10 reps
Burpees over the Barbell x 10 reps

40-54: 95/65 lbs; 115/75 lbs
55+: 65/45 lbs, Chest-to-Bar Pull-Ups x 5 reps; 85/55 lbs

How quickly can you recover? That is the name of the game today. Hit a 5 minute AMRAP, have a short recovery, and then go right into another 5 minute AMRAP. Both AMRAPs matter so don’t game the first one to try and get more reps on the 2nd one. I want to see you give everything you’ve got on both AMRAPs. Lets see how much you can push.

Optional Session (Best performed 3-4 hours between sessions)
A.
For completion:
400 Meter Sandbag Carry (Bear Hug)

Go heavy, and take your time. WALK, do not run. The point is to accumulate time under tension and strengthen your posterior chain, so embrace the slow grind of the walk and don’t get in a hurry. Please note the weight of the sandbag used. If you didn’t make the full 400 meters unbroken last week, use the same weight and make your goal to get further than you did last week without dropping. If you made it last week, go slightly heavier this week.

B.
Three sets of:
Single-Arm DB Press x 5-6 reps per arm
Rest 60 seconds
Reverse Snow Angles x 15 reps
Rest 60 seconds
Bat Wings

DMA done
A.) Very nice. HSWalks much better but still need lots of work to get comfortable upside down. Had to break multiple times to get to 50′.
B.) Terrible! Got to 75% and that was it! I did the volume, but couldn’t go up in weight.
C.1) 3 rounds, last round my BMU’s took forever (1min!!)
C2.) 3 rounds + 15 reps – learned that I can still do some work while breathing heavy. Can still push harder.

Afterrnoon session:
EMOM30:
Assault bike 30sec on, 30 sec off
First 10min on 70RPM, then did 75RPM for 20min, felt good!
