WORKOUT for Memorial Day Monday 5/25/2020

We have a workout prep video for everyon at the bottom of this post if you need a primer before getting after this workout.

If you haven’t been working out with higher volumes and intensities

“RUN CINDY RUN”
for total overall time:
1 mile run
20:00 AMRAP of 5 pullups, 10 pushups, 15 squats
1 mile run

-or if you’ve been training seriously-

“MURPH”
for time:
1 mile run
100 pullups
200 pushups
300 air squats
1 mile run

The pullups, pushups, and squats can be partitioned however. If you have a weight vest, plate carrier, or weighted backpack then wear it!

Notes from Coach Dave: “This is the version that most do as breaking up the movements as you see fit is easier than doing a chipper version. Recommend breaking into 20 sets of “Cindy” (5 pull ups, 10 Push ups, 15 Air squats). Push ups are the limiter, so breaking sets of 10 into 3/3/2/2 will keep you moving and also you interested. This version can get a little tedious, like “Cindy” but stay focused on the sets. Fastest i’ve seen this version done, is to do 5 rounds of 10/20/30, then 10 rounds of 5/10/15, but really depends on your pull up ability and how fast you can recover doing air squats. Again, make sure you have something to mark your sets. Running after will feel a bit worse because you’ll be moving faster, but try to push through.
