Five rounds for time of:
25 Squats
10 Pull-ups
10 Dips
Submit time and level of assistance for pull-ups and dips.
If assisted, keep assistance at same level throughout workout.
Total time and assistance amount is excellent indicator of your overall fitness.
Rush through!
Time five muscle-ups and 50 box jumps on 20" plyo box.
Stretch/rest 20 minutes.
Time five muscle-ups and 50 box jumps on 20" plyo box.
We're interested in both times and decay rate from first to second effort.
If you can't do muscle-ups, substitute fifteen pull-ups and twenty dips for each muscle-up.
If you can't do pull-ups and dips use assistance device (Cybex, Gravitron, etc.)
If you mix muscle-ups and pull-ups/dips report numbers of each with time.
Let's give the hips and legs a little break today! We've got three options today depending on your fitness ability. Pick one.
Warm-up, including sit-ups and back extensions.
Do 100 pull-ups and 100 dips on the Gravitron or other assisted pull-up/dip device.
OR
Do 50 pull-ups and 50 dips without assistance.
OR
Do 15 muscle-ups on the rings.
Finish with sit-ups and back extensions.
Regardless of which option you choose submit the number of sets and time it took
to complete the assignment. In the case of assisted pull-ups/dips also submit the
amount of assistance.
Today is a hybrid effort from several training modalities and tough!!
After a warm-up:
Move through the following with a 60 second break between exercises.
Row 500 meters for a record time.
Squat 20 RM weight 20 reps (20 RM is a weight you can squat 20 reps but not 21.)
Pull-up for PR (shoot for personal best)
Deadlift 10 RM weight 10 reps
Dips for PR (shoot for personal best)
Rest 10 minutes
Move through the following with a 2-minute break between exercises.
Row 500 meters match first effort
Squat same weight for twenty reps
Pull-ups for same count as first set
Deadlift same weight for 10 reps
Dips for same count as first set
Rest 10 minutes
Move through the following with a 3-minute break between exercises.
Row 500 meters match first effort
Squat same weight for twenty reps
Pull-ups for same count as first set
Deadlift same weight for 10 reps
Dips for same count as first set
The idea today is to strive to match the performance of the first pass on the second and third.
Ab-bench (or other sit-up that ranges from trunk extension through to flexion) 30 reps at max weight
Back extension 25 reps
Air Squat 50 reps
For the next phase we are doing pull-ups and dips or muscle-ups if you've got one!
Six sets of pull-ups (max effort, record the total, take as much time as needed between sets)
And,
Six sets of dips (max effort, record the total, take as much time as needed between sets.
OR, if you have a muscle-up,
Ten muscle-ups (max effort, take as much time as needed, record the time to complete all ten)
One rope climb with no legs or five with legs.
Twenty handstand push-ups by any means. Have spotter pull you up by ankles if needed.
Practice lowering from handstand to planche (body parallel to floor, arms locked) Have spotter
support your ankles and lower you to parallel. Hold at parallel, with spotter minimally helping,
for five full seconds.
Repeat for ten attempts. Do on padded mat, crash pad, or other padded surface!!
Ab-bench (or other sit-up that ranges from trunk extension through to flexion) 30 reps at max weight
Back extension 25 reps
Air Squat 50 reps
This is a really tough day. Don't hold back. Tomorrow is met-con only, so you will be able to rest
your arms, back, and shoulders. You are getting a small taste of the demands of a gymnast's workout.
Today: Find your way to a track with a place for pull-ups.
Often, there will be parallel bars as well as a pull-up bar.
Run 400 meters (once around for those new to the track)
Do 50 pull-ups in as many sets as required
(if you don't have 10 pull-ups, do 200 jumping pull-ups)
Run 400 meters
Do 50 dips or 75 push-ups in as many sets as required
Run 400 meters
Do 75 air squats
Run 400 meters
Trunk flexion: sit-ups.

Hip extension: air squats.
Push: dips.
Pull: pull-ups.
Weightlifting: deadlift
Row: 2K meters
Stretch: back, hips, legs, chest, shoulders.
See how tough you can make this workout. This is a high intensity training session.
We're just doing one set of each exercise make it a killer! Each set should be a max effort.
No resting during set. Rest as needed between exercises.
Report your efforts for feedback. Include times in your workout, but don't include stretch time in total.
Start with a calisthenic, whole body, single set per exercise mini-routine.
We will explore dozens of these "mini workout warm-ups". They all contain
elements of hip/trunk flexion & extension, pushing and pulling.
Stretch (hips, legs, back, chest, and shoulders)
Sit-ups
Back extensions
Squats
Rope climb or pull-ups
Dips or push-ups
Clean and Jerk 15,12, and 9 reps (If you need help with this movement contact us.
We offer regular free seminars in the Olympic lifts)
Finish with the same effort coming in.
Sit-ups
Back extensions
Squats
Rope Climb or pull-ups
Dips or Push-ups
Stretch
No metabolic conditioning today. That suggests something about tomorrow to those
of you who are paying attention.
200 sit-ups no matter how long it takes. Make them nice!
Stretch thoroughly. Used as a rest to slow down pace and come in to the next phase relatively fresh.
Do 50 dips, with or without assistance. This is a 50RM set, i.e., ideally, 51 should be impossible.
Immediately, run for ten minutes on a “windsprint” bike or a stairclimber at max level.
Rest as needed.
Do 35 dips, with or without assistance. This is a 35RM set, i.e., ideally, 36 should be impossible.
Immediately, run for five minutes on a “windsprint” bike or a stairclimber at max level.
Rest as needed.
Do 20 dips, with or without assistance. This is a 20RM set, i.e., ideally, 20 should be impossible.
Immediately, run for five minutes on a “windsprint” bike or a stairclimber at max level.
200 sit-ups no matter how long it takes. Again, make them nice!
Note: Do as many of the dips as you can without assistance on failure jump to Gravitron
(or like) and complete set with minimal assistance. We are exhausting the pushing function
partially with an eye to making the arm supporting contribution on the bike or stairlcimber
very tough
