The runs would require some way to measure distance—runningmap.com would help. A couple of these use a jump rope—pack it if you’ve got it. Have fun, and enjoy a fit Feast!

WOD 2: Squat-Run (mainsite 110910)
Tabata “Bottom to Bottom” Squat
Run 1 mile — Clock starts for run on rising from last squat.

The Tabata Bottom-to-Bottom Squat is a Tabata Squat, but each rep begins at the bottom and ends at the bottom. The turnaround at the top is immediate—no pause. The 10-second rest for each interval is also held at the bottom of the squat as opposed to the top. Interestingly, this squat, in contrast to the “normal” Tabata squat, motivates full hip extension. Also, the 10-second rests don’t seem as short with this protocol! (Here’s that Tabata clock site again. This time it would only be for 8 rounds of 30 seconds each.)

Post number of air squat reps for each set and mile time to comments.

 

WOD 3: Squats (mainsite 110913)
Overhead squat 1-1-1-1-1 reps
Front squat 1-1-1-1-1 reps
