WOD 04/24/2020
Zoom WOD (Live at Noon only)
BRIEF
Today we have a 17 min AMRAP with some fun and interesting movements.
We start with the manmaker, which is basically like a harder, slower burpee that moves you through a greater range of motion — that means it should now be your favorite movement! Go slow and steady to get the hang of it, but begin to pick up the pace after a few rounds, if possible. Keep the run quick and consistent. Don’t sprint, but definitely don’t jog it either. If you don’t have a distance marker, run about 15-20 seconds for your “50m,” then turn around and come back to the starting position.
For the manmakers, use anything that you can hold onto while in a plank position. If you don’t have anything suitable, just do it bodyweight. Be conservative with your backpack weight today, as this movement will be very difficult if the weight is even slightly too heavy.
For the Bear Crawl drag, you’ll need to drag a backpack or weight across the ground as you move. A good strategy is to pull the bag as far in front of you as possible, crawl over it until it’s at your feet, then pull the bag with the other hand — crawl, and repeat. This will be taxing, potentially awkward, and tough — but that’s why we’re doing it. Stay focused and balanced, and don’t rush!
