Five rounds:

Without stopping or dropping the bar, complete the following sequence, seven times:

  • Power clean
  • Front squat
  • Push press (have bar land behind head, in rear-rack position)
  • Back squat
  • Push press (have bar land on chest, in front-rack position).

You can rest anytime in the sequence (with barbell in hand) except on the ground—must be touch-and-go at the bottom. Once you’ve completed the sequence seven times consecutively without stopping, drop the bar.

15 minute AMRAP

7 push press (115/65)

10 overhead squats (115/65)

15 sit-ups

Doing the Tough Mudder in Dallas definitely counts as an out-of-class workout!

For non-Mudder types, do WOD:
3 RFT:
Burpee broad jumps, 1 length of the gym (purple stripe to purple stripe longwise; or halfway down, halfway back)
21 kettlebell swings, 1.5/1 pood
12 pull-ups (use bands or sub jumping pull-ups if necessary)

 

Other work: SKILL …
Depending on what skill you’re trying to get, do:

  • 300 double unders, or 10 minutes double-under practice, whichever comes first
  • 3 rounds for quality: 9 hip/back extensions, 500m row—max effort (if you didn’t do this last week)
  • 10 minutes handstand practice—this could include working on freestanding handstands, handstand push-ups (kipping or no), and/or handstand walks
