Today’s WOD consists of five rounds of 5 burpees, 20 hops over dumbbells, 10 dumbbell thrusters, 20 hops over dumbbells, and 5 burpees. It’s a tough one. Do your best!
If you are an experienced athlete and feel capable, please perform the following WOD as prescribed (Rx):
Rx:
5 rounds for time:
5 burpees
20 hops over dumbbells (forward hops, not lateral)
10 dumbbell thrusters (50lb, 35lb)
20 hop over dumbbells
5 burpees
A beginner can make today’s WOD more doable by reducing the number of repetitions and modifying the movements. Instead of hopping over dumbbells, I suggest hopping over a crack in the floor or a jump rope to reduce the risk of tripping. A beginner’s version of today’s workout could look like this:
Scaled 1:
5 rounds for time:
5 elevated, no push-up burpees
20 hops (forward hops, not lateral)
5 dumbbell thrusters (8lb, 3lb)
20 hop over dumbbells
5 elevated, no push-up burpees
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:
5 step-back burpees
20 hops over dumbbells (forward hops, not lateral)
10 dumbbell thrusters (25lb, 20lb)
20 hop over dumbbells
5 step-back burpees
