Today’s WOD is a 20 minute EMOM. EMOM stands for “Every Minute On the Minute.” In this workout, you will perform 30 double unders in the first minute and 16 dumbbell box step-ups in the second minute. This will continue for 10 rounds until the 20 minutes are up. If you finish a movement before the given minute is complete, rest and wait until the next minute to begin the next movement.
To time today’s workout using the SmartWOD timer app, use the following steps:
Press “EMOM”.
Choose “Every 1 for 20”.
Press “START TIMER”.
If you are an experienced athlete and feel capable, please perform the following WOD:
Experienced:
20 minute EMOM:
Minute 1: 30 double unders
Minute 2: 16 dumbbell box step-ups (24in., 20in.), (50lb, 35lb)
Today’s WOD can be modified by substituting single unders or imaginary jump rope for the double unders and by reducing the height and weight of the dumbbell box step-ups. A beginner’s version of today’s workout could look like this:
Scaled 1:
20 minute EMOM:
Minute 1: 15 single unders or 30 imaginary jump rope
Minute 2: 12 dumbbell box step-ups to a comfortable height (15lb, 8lb)
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:
20 minute EMOM:
Minute 1: 15 double unders or 40 single unders
Minute 2: 16 dumbbell box step-ups to a comfortable height (30lb, 20lb)
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.
