Friday WOD
A.) “Riverboat”
5 Sets, for Total Time:
- 5 Deadlifts, increase weight each round
- 8 Toes to Bar
- 200m Run
- Rest 2:00
Workout Goal: <17:00
Levels Consideration: Deadlift, N&C Endurance
Strategy and Briefing: The Deadlift in this Breathe & Brace workout will determine success. Start at a weight that consistently allows unbroken sets on, and go from there. The TtB should be unbroken throughout, and the Run is at a good clip. You have a 2:00 rest (a long time) after each round, so don’t hold back on the Run. When building DL weight, remember sets should be unbroken. Do NOT go to singles. Breaking the 4th-5th set is fine, as long as you attempt unbroken sets.
B.) Arm Finisher
4 Rounds for Quality:
- 12 Barbell Curls
- AMRAP Diamond Box Pushups
Levels Consideration: UB Push
Strategy and Briefing: Keep movements consistent & steady on each rep of these exercises. Refrain from resting at the top or bottom — just keep it moving. This creates a burn & a pump, which causes hypertrophy (muscular size & ‘plumbing’ support). Only continue in the AMRAP set as long as you can keep your form tight — no bad reps. After your final set … get a quick picture of your insta-gains.
