ENDURANCE
“Thx Wanderlust 2.0” (Time)

With a Partner
150 Cal Bike
150 Deadlifts
150 Push Press
150 Cal Row

MCx: 115/75
MAx: 125 reps, 95/65
MVx: 100 reps, 75/55

GOALS + GUIDANCE: Lean on your buddy! When you start to slow down, tap out, rest, and recover while your partner crushes it for a bit, then switch back! For the bike and row, switch every :45-:60, keeping a steady, moderate pace. Both will take around 10 min or less. The deadlift weight should feel super light (sets of 15 reps) and for the push press the same weight should get spicy around rep 10. Both of the barbell exercises will take around 5 minutes each. Target 30 minutes (35 cap).

Grab a set dumbbells for the floor press (unbroken every round, in about :20). Complete each round with five pull ups. You should be able to connect 3/2 while you’re fresh, then maybe 2/2/1 as the workout continues. Target 20 minutes.

Complete the first movement within the first minute, and the second movement within the second minute. Use a weight for the kb swings that you can swing for at least 10 reps unbroken every round. Same with the db snatches, they should be fast and unbroken. Challenge yourself on the row and bike to complete the calories as is, the hollow rocks and commanders will give you a slight opportunity to rest. Record weights and any modifications.

CONDITIONING
“Woehlke” (Time)

3 Rounds:
4 Jerks
5 Front Squats
6 Hang Power Cleans
40 Pull Ups
50 Push Ups
60 Sit Ups
Rest 3 minutes between rounds

MAx: 135/95, 20 pull ups (band), 30 push ups
MVx: 95/65, 30 ring rows, 30 knee push ups, 40 sit ups

GOALS + GUIDANCE: Nothing like a tough Hero WOD on a Sweatiest Saturday! Choose a weight for the barbell movements that you can jerk for 4 reps right into 5 front squats, then have to drop before doing the 6 hang power cleans. The reps will not feel easy, but should be done unbroken at the start of every round. Then there are two ways to attack the bodyweight movements 1) start with a big set then chip away at smaller sets or 2) start with smaller sets and quick breaks. Spend no more than 3 minutes on the pull ups, 5 minutes on the push ups, and 2 minutes on the sit ups. Record your total time. There is a 35 minute cap
