It is almost that time of the month…. Are you ready to retest your pushups? Do you think that you have improved over the month? We will be retesting our pushups starting on Monday! Make sure to get your retesting in before the end of the week.
What do you want February`s Skill of the Month to be?
Here is your chance to try to persuade me in why we should be working on a certain skill this month. Post to the comments the skill that you want to be chosen and why.
Today`s Workout:
Buy In – 3 rounds of:
- 30 single skips
- 5 goblet squats
- 3 man makers
WOD – “Triple 7”
3 rounds for time:
- 7 deadlift (155/205)
- 7 1 arm db push press (35/55)
- 7 1 arm db snatch (35/55)
* Snatch is 7 in total with both arms, you will have uneven sets from right to left.
* Make sure to use challenging weights or this workout will be too easy 😉
Zone 3 -scale deadlift to 125/185lbs
Zone 2 – scale deadlift to 105/155lbs, scale dbs to 20/35lbs
Zone 1 – Scale as needed
Games Prep – use a KB

Handstand pushups, pistols or ring dips
HSPU, D/Us or Squat Snatch
Ring dips or wall balls because I love them both so much 😀 or if I pretend enough I will right?!
Come them coming team, the more we get for one exercise will convince me 😉
Ring dips or pull-ups. I agree with Craig about ring dips slowing you down in a WOD for sure. And I also vote for pull-ups because there are so many supporting exercises that can be done to help the pull-up (arch rocks, hollow-rocks, beat-swings).
Ring dips, pullups/ctb or wallballs
ring dips, HSPU,
ring dips. I'd also like to vote against using the pull up bars for any kind of max reps until the weather gets warmer.
I agree with Wendy! 🙂
