Pic courtesy of Shut Up and Take My Money. We are heading into Week 2 of at-home Joint Strike. Please stick with it! I know with so many of us either stuck int he house or unable to get into the gym, this time can be frustrating. Please continue to stay active. Doing these WODs will not only keep you fit, it will help keep you sane. If you need alternatives to any movement, please reply to this post or reply on the Facebook posts, or email me at dave_leclaire@yahoo.com directly.

30 Jumping Jacks
20 Flutter Kicks
10 Spider-man Lunge to Samson Stretch
10 Cobra to Downward Dog
10 Leg Raises
10 Iron Cross
20 Jumping Jacks
10 Thread the Needle
Practice Hollow Work movements
S/S/S:
Tabata Hollow Work
8 Rounds each of 20 Sec Work, 10 Sec Rest:
Hollow Hold
Superman Hold
Hollow Rocks
V-Ups 2x2x tempo*
*2X2X tempo = 2 second raise to the top of V-up, no pause at top, 2 second descent to bottom of V-Up, no pause at bottom
Way this will work, you will complete 8 rounds of 20 second work, 10 seconds rest of Hollow Hold, then after the 10 second break at the end of set 8 of Hollow hold, you will go right into 8 sets of 20 seconds work, 10 seconds rest of Superman Holds. This pattern will be the same when doing 8 sets of Hollow Rocks, and 8 sets of Tempo V-Ups. For the Hollow Rocks and V-ups, do as many reps as you can int he 20 seconds per set. For the movements
