“MJ” (AMRAP – Rounds and Reps)

23 minute AMRAP with a partner:

P1: 400m run

P2: 2 rounds of Cindy:

Cindy

5 pull ups

10 push ups

15 air squats

Scaled:

Cindy: 5 banded strict pull ups

10 push ups to abmat

15 air squats
Intent – Murph prep. We are looking to start to train higher volumes of pull ups, push ups and air squats paired with running.

Target – Top scores: 6 rounds. Minimum goals: 4 rounds. The goal is to have both partners finish their portion at a similar time. Advanced members will be able to finish the 2 rounds of Cindy faster than their partner can run and will get some rest. But ensure that all members are able to complete Cindy right around when their partner finishes running to ensure there aren’t any long breaks or transitions.

Feel – Longer sustained output.

Flow – Partner 1 runs while Partner 2 performs 2 rounds. Once both partners have finished they will switch stations.

– This is a tester that we will come back to in 5 weeks.

Helen (Time)

3 Rounds for time of:
400m Run
21 Kettlebell Swings, 53# / 35#
12 Pull-ups
Intent – CF Girl Benchmark workout

Target – Top Scores: Aim for sub 9:30. This is a fast paced workout that will be limited by grip and pulling endurance. The run should be at a maintainable effort and can be regulated based on how much members will need to break up the KB Swings and pull ups. Advanced members should try to push to be fast and unbroken throughout but most will need 1-2 breaks on the KB and Pull ups.

Feel – High intensity

Min 1-4:
2 Power Clean with 2 sec pause at mid-thigh

Min 5-8:

)

*Tech & positional focus today. Focus on full extension/driving with hips/strong catch/pull under the bar.

“Flying V” (AMRAP – Rounds and Reps)

5 v-ups

40 double unders

10 hspu
Intent – Bodyweight endurance training. We are looking to work aerobic and muscular endurance with this workout

Target – Top Scores: Finishing round of 25. Minimum goals: Into round of 20. The double unders should not be a limiter today and should always be done unbroken or in 2 sets. We are looking for members to take smart breaks on the gymnastics in order to maximize their ability to sustain across sets.

Feel – Moderate intensity due to gymnastics bottlenecks.

Flow – Add 5 reps to the V-ups and HSPU each round. Double unders remain the same.

– We are focused on upper body pulling endurance today.

– Stop 1 rep before failure on the strict pull ups.

– The AMRAP of ring rows and the banded face pull will add some additional endurance training and fatigue.

The machine portion of each interval should be done in 1:00-1:30 to allow for transition and starting the AMRAP movement. The KB press and wallballs will likely need to be broken up depending on how much time each member has to work.

Feel – Intensity on the machines then steady on the working movements.
