As a team, on the soccer field. This workout is in parts, each separated by the whole group doing 15 squats together rep for rep, holding plates or medballs as you’d like.
I. Warm-up
50m commando crawl – 50m inchworm – 50m spiderman – 50m toy soldier – 50m jog with high knee taps – 50m cartwheels
Jog to icy lake, swim to island (this is actually the opposite of a “warm-up”).
II. Sprints
Start each sprint together as a group at the back of the end zone – first person to cross prescribed distance marks the “finish” for the group (everyone sprints for the same amount of time); everyone works back to front of end zone from wherever they are.
Sprint to first cone – “bootie scoot” back
Sprint to second cone – burpee broad jumps back
Sprint to third cone – walking lunges back
Sprint to fourth cone – broad jumps back
III. Pull and push
Two rounds:
Max reps pull-ups on the soccer goal. If you can’t get one, have someone hold each leg for some support
Max reps push-ups
IV. Partner Up
Travel out to 50m mark (second cone) with one partner working; switch places and come back:
Fireman carry
Wheelbarrow
Piggyback ride
I was happy to be a part of the team WOD yesterday. The swim was more than a test of mental grit. Frigid water really does something to the body. It was an effort to keep my muscles from constricting. It reminded me of last year’s ice bath obstacle in the Mudder. Shew. Looking forward to that one again next weekend!
It’s good to experience the challenge together, while above all and most importantly realizing that this race IS a challenge but a TON OF FUN!
Get ready for THAT aspect of the race, Mudders.
Super impressed with theMrs carrying me!
Awesome – especially the swimming! It was a nice ‘cool’ dip!
