FAST reps and transitions are key to completing today’s workout! DB deadlifts will take no more than :10, burpees :15-:20 and v-ups around :05-:10. The killer will be the shuttle runs. Each shuttle is 25 feet down and back (10 lengths) which takes :60. If your first round takes more than :90, cut the shuttle to three reps (6 lengths). Target 45 minutes.

300 Meter Run
12 DB Seated Press
12 DB Thrusters
12 Ring Rows
12 Strict Knee Ups
Weight: 25/15
WOD GUIDANCE & GOALS
Rope Climbs!! Start each round with 400 meters (2:00), jogging the last 50 meters to recover for the handstand push ups. Try to do the handstand push ups unbroken set round one, then possibly break them into sets of 8 and 4, or 6 and 6. Spend no more than :60 on them. Like the handstand push ups, the first set of DB thrusters keep unbroken but then you may have to break them in later rounds. Then…ROPE CLIMBS! Each climb takes around :10, so like the handstands spend no more than :60 on the climbs. Scale the number of climbs to fit the time domain. Target sub 20 minutes.

WOD GUIDANCE & GOALS
Coaches will help you break down the power snatch, and you’ll do five sets of 3 single OR touch and go reps, at the same weight. When it comes to technical lifts, mechanics/form ALWAYS trump adding more weight to your bar. Take the time to dial in your form rather than going heavier! THEN for the AMRAP, the hang power snatch and box jump overs build by 1 rep every round. Choose a weight you can cycle for at least five reps. Target the round of 8.

THE WORKOUTS
WOD 1
500/400 Meter Row
15 Burpees to a Plate
20 Box Jump/Step Up
WOD 1 is completed stadium style! What does that mean? Teammate 1 will complete the row, advance to the burpees and then the box jump or step overs. As soon as teammate one advances to the burpees, teammate 2 can start their row. As soon as teammate two moves off the rower, teammate 3 can start their row. Teammates can advance as long as the station in front of them has been cleared. Each athlete will complete the chipper, and your score will be total time. Cap at 10 minutes.
WOD 2
6 Minutes to Establish a
5 Rep Max Power Clean
Teams will have 6 minutes for all three members to establish a heavy five rep max power clean. Clean must be caught above parallel (no squats), and reps must be touch and go (no dropping and resetting.) Teams can only use the plates provided at their station, and weights must be clipped in before starting an attempt. As always, FORM/MECHANICS over adding weight. Score is the sum of the three lifts.
WOD 3a+3b
AMRAP 5
400 Meter Medball Run
Max Wall Balls
YES, there are two scored parts to WOD 3!!
Part A) All teammates will run 400 meters TOGETHER (you cannot leave anyone behind), taking turns running with the 10# medicine ball. If one person wants to carry the medball the entire 400 meters, that’s cool but your time doesn’t count until everyone crosses the finish line.
PART B) Teams will immediately run inside to a designated area to then complete as many wall balls as possible in the remaining time. You must switch teammates every 10 reps, and everyone is going to the orange line.
You’ll record your time for the 400 meter medball run, and total wall balls
