TGIF, Community Fitness Club! We’ll finish off the week with a workout consisting of three 5-minute AMRAPs (“As Many Reps As Possible”) separated by a 3-minute rest period between each set. During each five minute period you will complete as many repetitions of 8 kettlebell swings, 4 box jumps, and 20 double unders as you can. You will then rest for three minutes before continuing on to the next AMRAP.
To time today’s workout using the SmartWOD timer app:
Press “TABATA”.
Select “3 rounds of 5:00 work and 3:00 rest”.
Press “START TIMER”.
If you are an experienced athlete and feel capable, please perform the following WOD:
Experienced:
Three 5-minute AMRAPs in 21 minutes:
8 American kettlebell swings (53lb, 35lb)
4 box jumps (24in., 20in.)
20 double unders
*Rest 3 minutes between rounds
Beginners should perform Russian rather than American kettlebell swings and reduce the weight of the kettlebell. They can also perform single unders or imaginary jump rope rather than double unders. A beginner’s version of today’s workout could look like this:
Scaled 1:
Three 5-minute AMRAPs in 21 minutes:
8 Russian kettlebell swings (15lb, 10lb)
4 box jumps to a comfortable height
10 single unders or 20 imaginary jump rope
*Rest 3 minutes between rounds
Perhaps something between the experienced 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:
Three 5-minute AMRAPs in 21 minutes:
8 American kettlebell swings (35lb, 22lb)
4 box jumps to a comfortable height
10 double unders or 30 single unders
*Rest 3 minutes between rounds
