Today’s WOD (workout of the day) is a long one. It combines lunges, toes-to-wall, and push-ups. Try to keep a steady pace throughout today’s workout. Push hard! It’s a rough one, but I know that you can do it!


I usually suggest toes-to-wall (or toes-to-rig) as a scaled option for toes-to-bar, but they also work great as an at-home core exercise. The toes-to-wall is similar to a leg raise. To perform a toes-to-wall, lie on the floor with your hands stretched above your head, touching a wall. Raise your feet from the ground until they touch the wall behind your head, and then lower them back to the floor.


If you are an experienced athlete and feel capable, please perform the following WOD as prescribed (Rx):


Rx:

10 rounds for time:

30 alternating lunges

20 toes-to-wall

10 push-ups


Beginning athletes can scale today’s WOD by reducing the number of rounds. You might also consider setting a 20 minute cap for yourself and trying to get in as many rounds as possible during that time limit. Whichever option you decide, be especially careful performing the lunges. Check out the lunge modification options in the link below. A beginner’s version of today’s WOD could look like this:


Scaled 1:

5 rounds for time:

30 modified alternating lunges

20 toes-to-wall

10 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:

8 rounds for time:

30 alternating lunges

20 toes-to-wall

10 kneeling push-ups
