We will end the week with a fifteen minute AMRAP containing squat jumps, sit-ups, and push-ups. If you’re feeling tired after a long week of working out, feel free to move a little slower and take longer breaks. If you’re feeling strong, push hard and get in as many reps as possible!
If you are an experienced athlete and feel capable, please perform the following WOD as prescribed (Rx):
Rx:
15 minute AMRAP:
5 squat jumps
5 sit-ups
5 push-ups
AMRAPs scale automatically. A beginner will naturally perform fewer reps than an advanced athlete. However, it is often necessary to scale other aspects of the workout as well. Beginners can perform regular air squats rather than squat jumps, anchored sit-ups rather than regular sit-ups, and wall push-ups rather than regular push-ups. A beginner’s version of today’s WOD could look like this:
Scaled 1:
15 minute AMRAP:
5 air squats to a chair or plyo box
5 anchored sit-ups
5 wall push-ups
Perhaps something between the Rx version and the beginner version of the WOD is right for you today. Another variation of today’s WOD might look like this:
Scaled 2:
15 minute AMRAP:
5 squat jumps
5 sit-ups
5 kneeling push-ups
Please listen to your body, and pick the version of the workout that is right for you. You can always adjust mid-WOD if you find that the modifications you’ve picked are too easy or too difficult.
