Every minute on the minute for 20 minutes:
a. 12 burpees
b. 24 medicine ball push press
c. 12 medicine ball cleans
d. 36 plank jacks

CONDITIONING for Wednesday 12/2/2020

HAGRID

AMRAP 10:00
10 Bulgarian split squats, right leg
10 burpees
10 Bulgarian split squats, left leg
10 alternating devil’s press

You’ll need a one-handed object for the Devil’s Press (db, kb, mb, sb, bumper, etc) and if you’d like to up the difficulty for the workout (if you’re thinking about it, do it) you can use that for the BSS- try holding in a front rack or farmer’s position. Every set should be able to go unbroken with short rests during the transitions. Post score to comments!

CONDITIONING for Tuesday 12/1/2020

ESPRESSO

as many reps as possible in 20:00 of
20 snatches
20 pogo burpees
20 pushups

In this workout the goal is to use a db/kb for the snatches- you don’t have to alternate, but maybe hit sets of 5-10/side each time. Drop immediately into the pogo burpees over your snatch object and don’t stop. Take breaks early and often in the pushups so you don’t fail any, and so that you don’t lose too much stamina on the subsequent sets of burpees and pushups. Post scores to comments.
