800m run

15 knees to elbows

20 side swings left

20 side swings right

Gateway to the Pullup

22 Mar

Ring row

The ring row is the beginning stage in the progression to the pullup. The ring row is also very scalable on it’s own. The farther back and more upright that you stand, the easier that it becomes. Have your feet farther out and your body more horizontal; the ring row becomes much more difficult.

Team Interval WOD

Three teams, four to five members each. Sprint, calisthenics, sprint back. Tag the next team member, rest as the others in your team do their turn. This comes out to be a 1:3 work/rest interval. Each team member ends up doing 15 rounds. Sprint distance was around 60 feet.

Repeat 3 times:

Sprint, 20 mountain climbers, sprint back
Sprint, 10 box jumps, sprint back
Sprint, 10 pushups, sprint back
Sprint, 10 squats, sprint back
Sprint, 10 situps, sprint back

Finish with a short game of hooverball, followed by a flow chain of hamstring and glute flexibility movements.

Training the front lever develops both tremendous strength in the core and pulling power in the lats. The arms must remain straight. Here, Sue holds for time in the tucked front lever.
