We made it to June, Community Fitness Club! Let's celebrate by getting really sweaty! Today's WOD alternates between mountain climbers and thrusters, with the number of reps of each decreasing as the workout progresses. Try to pick a weight for the thrusters where you can complete 5 to 10 reps unbroken each round. Good luck!
If you are an experienced athlete and feel capable, please perform the following WOD as prescribed (Rx):
Rx:
For time:
150 mountain climbers (Each leg counts as 1 rep, so 75 per side.)
30 thrusters (95lb, 65lb)
100 mountain climbers (50 per side)
20 thrusters
50 mountain climbers (25 per side)
10 thrusters
If you aren’t up for the Rx workout today, there are a couple of ways to make it easier. You can reduce the number of repetitions, and you can also scale the thrusters. A beginner’s version of today’s workout could look like this:
Scaled 1:
For time:
100 mountain climbers (Each leg counts as 1 rep, so 50 per side.)
20 dumbbell thrusters (5lb, 3lb)
60 mountain climbers (30 per side)
15 dumbbell thrusters
20 mountain climbers (10 per side)
10 dumbbell thrusters
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:
For time:
150 mountain climbers (Each leg counts as 1 rep, so 75 per side.)
30 thrusters (45lb, 35lb)
100 mountain climbers (50 per side)
20 thrusters
50 mountain climbers (25 per side)
10 thrusters
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.
