WOD Brief
L-sits can be brutal, yet they strengthen our body is numerous ways. We have been adding core strengthening across the past 4 months and today we finally get to dig into the movement, and include in the WOD. L-sits can be done from the ground, off plates, using paralletes, on the rings, from the bars, or hanging. Please find your progression today and really go for full isometric quality holds.
The WOD – brings together a row – at an absolute 110% speed straight into max deadlifts at a heavier load. We finish each round with a 15 second L-sit hold (whichever variation and position you are using today is perfect). We’ll need to move hard and fast. The programmed rest is designed to let us shake out our body, rest, and then get back on the rowers to go again.
The row will crank your breathing and heart rate. Aim for belly breaths as much as possible and big nasal inhales. This will help you stay focused and get the oxygen we need.
