Today’s WOD (workout of the day) consists of lunges and jumping rope. This workout will challenge your cardiovascular system, your coordination, and the muscles of your lower body. Just try to keep a steady pace and do your best! While lunges are a new movement for the Community Fitness Club, they are a fairly familiar exercise for most people. However, if you would like a lunges refresher or some suggestions on how to scale, please check out the link at the bottom of this post.
If you are an experienced athlete and feel capable, please perform the following WOD as prescribed (Rx):
Rx:
5 rounds for time:
30 walking lunges
30 double unders
Lunges can be a very difficult movement for many beginners. Please scale the number of repetitions and modify this movement to your current fitness level. Please note: You do not have to bring your knee all the way to the ground if you do not feel comfortable doing so, and you can also use a wall, the rig, or a chair for balance and support. A beginner’s version of today’s workout could look like this:
Scaled 1:
5 rounds for time:
10 modified lunges
40 imaginary jump rope or 20 single unders
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:
5 rounds for time:
30 walking lunges
60 single unders
