Today’s workout of the day is a 12 minute AMRAP (As Many Reps As Possible) containing inchworm push-ups and Russian kettlebell swings. The inchworm push-ups will challenge your flexibility while working your core and upper body. The kettlebell swings will work your whole body while increasing your muscular power. Push hard, and get in as many reps as you can!
If you are an experienced athlete and feel capable, please perform the following WOD as prescribed (Rx):
Rx:
12 minute AMRAP:
5 inchworm push-ups
20 Russian kettlebell swings (71lb, 53lb)
A beginner will naturally perform fewer reps than an advanced athlete. However, it may also be necessary to scale the movements and the weights. You can substitute regular inchworms for inchworm push-ups and reduce the number of repetitions each round. You can also use a lighter weight for the kettlebell swings. A beginner’s version of today’s workout could look like this:
Scaled 1:
12 minute AMRAP:
2 inchworms
20 Russian kettlebell swings (20lb, 15lb)
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:
12 minute AMRAP:
5 inchworm to kneeling push-ups
20 Russian kettlebell swings (53lb, 35lb)
