WOD 04/08/2020
Zoom WOD (Live at Noon & 6pm) – recording will be posted by mid-afternoon.
BRIEF
Today we have an Every Minute on the Minute (EMOM) that alternates between movements, with two separate 8-minute chunks.
The Burpee/Bodybuilder + Box Jump section will require steady focus. Stay aware, stay alive! Take things slow, and make sure that you’re jumping/stepping up to something solid. Deadlifts should be done methodically- no rush, with a focus on activation and control. Your sets should take the entire 40 secs, so adjust your rep speed to make that happen. As an example, if you choose sets of 8, the reps should be done at about 5 seconds per rep — constant tension. On the Curl-to-Press, perform all of your reps on one side, then move down into a side plank on the same side, up to the 40 sec mark.
Weight- Use anything you can hold onto with both hands for the Deadlift. For the Curl-to-Press, use anything you can hold in one hand and curl smoothly. Start with a weight/pace that’s conservative so you can maintain consistency through all 8 minutes.

Heart Rate and Breathing (20-30 minutes)
Get your heart rate up to approximately 180-age (or lower), and hold for 20-30 minutes. What you choose is up to you, but consider a run/jog, bike, or hike. Get outside into the sun and fresh air! Your breathing should be steady, along with your HR. If you don’t have a HR monitor, go at a pace where you could still hold a short-sentenced conversation.
