RX, LITE and HOME WOD

 

Foam Roll/Trigger/Warm-up/Mobilise/Activate

 

1) Snatch (power) RM – EMOM for 10 min (60% 1RM)

 

RM – Rep Max (1 set of a maximum number of reps)

NB – From floor

 

Score = Total Loading (i.e. Sum of the Load x Reps – For example… 30kg x 10 + 30kg x 7 etc)

 

Equipment Options:

You can use a BB/DB/KB/WB – Use whatever loading you have

Ruck sack ground to overhead (GTOH)

 

LITE Options:

Load so as to maintain technical proficiency and great form! Goal is to get between 5-10 reps. This will become quite cardiovascularly challenging!

 

then…

 

2) Complete 27-21-15 of the following couplet FT:

OH Walking/Stepping Lunge (50kg/30kg)

Push Press (50kg/30kg)

 

TC = 14 min

 

Score = Time/TC plus 1 sec/rep missed

 

Equipment Options:

NB – Walking/Step lunge is alternating 1x L = 1 Rep, 1x R = 2nd Rep etc.

 

NB If you have a lighter implement like a DB or KB we are going to increase the reps.

I.e. To equate with KB/DB/Ruck Sack/Bumper/WB – RX is with a 24/16kg KB or a 25/15kg DB but the rep range is 33-27-21 on the OH Walkiung Lunge

 

Push Press – use the same implement as for OH WL

I.e. To equate with KB/DB/Ruck Sack/Bumper/WB – RX is with a 24/16kg KB or a 25/15kg DB but the rep range is 33-27-21 on the Push Press

 

BB/Bumper/WB – 2 Hands

Rest of the implements are 1 Hand

Ruck sack could be either
