WOD Brief:
We are starting off class today with iso-lateral leg work…the four sets of eight reps(per leg) of the ever so deceiving step up! The step-up is a hip-dominant exercise that should preferentially recruit the glutes and hamstrings…unlike the lunge, which is a knee-dominant exercise that should target your quads more. We are looking for these three things when approaching the stepup today:
- Create 3 approximate 90-degree angles at the ankles, knees, and hips
- Place a majority of the your weight on the mid-foot to heel of your support leg
- Have an active hinge at the hip to pre-load the glutes and hamstrings.
The wod today is an interval that will surely kick our rears into gear. Every 4 minutes for 5 rounds we will do 12(heavy) goblet squats with a kettlebell, 15 burpees and calories on the bike erg…with any remaining time, you rest until the start of the next 4 minutes! All about those leg gains today, team!
