Weekly WODs: 

Monday

Crossfit  –  The Sizzling Sequel

We’ve got a big back day to kick off the week! Athletes should expect to see a two part workout. In part one, athletes will perform an AMRAP of bike calories and strict-pullups. Part two addresses a more dynamic pull as athletes complete 50 kipping pull-ups into a 40/30 calorie bike. Don’t be ashamed to scale today if needed.

20 MIN AMRAP

10 Push-Ups

Tuesday

Crossfit  – Back to Back

It’s a two-piece strength and conditioning workout today! We begin with our regularly scheduled squat cycle which will continue to prioritize building volume under load. We’re looking to finish our three round workout close to the cap today. Our conditioning will challenge your front rack position as it becomes fatigued from kettlebell swings, kettlebell lunges, and front squats.

Crossfit – Overhead Overhaul

It’s all about the shoulders in today’s workout. We begin with a strict press strength session followed by more pressing in the conditioning. Athletes will be pressing and performing either sit-ups or v-ups in our 6 round workout.

Crossfit – Capacity Builder

EMOM are a great way to increase our capacity to perform work. If 21.1 wasn’t a great experience this year then today’s workout will give you a chance to workout the kinks on your wall walks. We also have running, odd object holds, and rowing.

Friday

Crossfit  – Deadlift Day

It’s time to celebrate the king of strength building! In today’s conditioning athletes want to find a weight they are comfortable cycling sumo deadlift high pulls for multiple reps. Our workout also includes sprints and box jumps. Don’t leave your hips at home!

Saturday

 Crossfit  – Partner WOD

Today’s daily sweat session can be accomplished as a single athlete or as a team. Both workouts will include rowing, power cleans, thrusters, and burpees. This workout is a grind so don’t kick things off too fast on the rower. Level 2 will have an added skill development session of bar muscle up or chest to bar practice.
