S/S/S:

Push Press

3X5

 

Increase weight each set

Second session of Push Press this cycle.  Aim to go heavier than when you did the 5X5.  Watch your finish position.  Ribs should be tucked down.  If your ribs are sticking out, you’re over-arching your back, which will lead to more issues down the road.

WOD:

2 Min AMRAP: Rows for Cal

Rest 2 min

2 Min AMRAP: Air Squat

Rest 2 min

2 Min AMRAP: Double Unders

Rest 2 min

2 Min AMRAP: Box jumps (24/20)

 

(Score is total of all reps/cal together)

 

Scaling Options:

DUs -> Du attempts, no SUs

Box Jumps -> Step ups

For Box Jumps, it is only considered RX if you jump (two feet leave the ground at the same time and land at the same time) on the box.  If you step up, that is scaled.  You can step down, but not up, to stay RX’d.

 

Cool Down:

Accumulate 2 min in handstand either against the wall or free standing

 

Pigeon pose on box x 2 min per side
