WOD Brief

We begin with some double under work. If you don’t have them, we’ll break the movement down and get closer. If you have them, find areas to improve – tighter feet; more relaxed upright positions; better cadence, etc …

The WOD has us moving for 5 minute bouts. The idea here is we will gain rounds as the barbell decreases in weight each round. We’ll recover with 3 minutes and hit the same movements and reps each time. The goal here is  clean double unders to our heavy bars (one bar per athlete), and then to the burpee box jump OVER. No need to open hips on top of box, but two foot back and up standards.

Adjust the workout by finding a jump rope set that takes no more than 30-40 seconds. The deadlifts in the beginning will be a struggle, but the weight should be something you can get through in max 2 minutes on the first round, this will leave you enough time to get back to the bar in round 2.

Round 2 and 3 should be much more reasonable = bigger sets on the deadlift. So that you end on a bar that is max 2 sets at a time… maybe three 😉

Scale and adjust the weight as you need.
