Weekend Workout

You can do the following workout anytime between now and Monday on your own with nothing but a stop watch and your legs.

6 Rounds -
- Run 400m
- Rest 2 min.

Post all 6-400m times trying to keep them within 5 seconds of each other.  For every second outside of 5 seconds slower or faster than your first 400 perform 1 burpee after the workout.  Hypothetical example:

1 - 1:27
2 - 1:31 - 4 seconds off, no burpees
3 - 1:26 - 1 second off, no burpees
4 - 1:34 - 7 seconds off, 2 burpees after the workout
5 - 1:41 - 14 seconds off, 9 burpees after the workout
6 - 1:35 - 8 seconds off, 3 burpees after the workout

I had a total of 14 penalty burpees, so I would rest a couple of minutes after my last 400m and then do those burpees.  If your burpees are greater than 25, just do 25.

Have a good weekend!

100 Day Double Under Challenge

Hey Guys,

I'm doing this challenge and thought some of you may want to join me.  It is a 100-day double under challenge that started yesterday.  The basics are that you do 1 double under the first day, 2 double unders the second, .... until you get to the 100th day.  It will be good practice for your double unders and supports a good cause.  It started yesterday, so today is technically day 2 and you would do 2 double unders today.



You can read more information about the challenge and purchase a package if you'd like here:

http://rxjumpropes.com/2012/08/16/dhp-and-rx-jump-ropes/

My double under deal with all of you is still on and this would be great practice for getting your free customized rope:

Double Under Deal

You may have noticed that we are doing Double Unders a lot in workouts lately.  I know many of you sub singles in, but single jump ropes are really a completely different movement and fatigue different muscles than double unders. I know sometimes all you need is a little motivation to learn something new so we are going to start a new challenge.  This will remain in affect for as long as I can afford it:

If you can demonstrate to me 35 consecutive double unders then I will buy you a custom jump rope built to your specifications from RX Jump Ropes.

Just let me know when you are ready and you can show me before or after class.  However, you only get 3 attempts and then you can't try again for a week, so make sure you are ready before you demonstrate them for me.


Wednesday, September 5, 2012 - Workout

2 Rounds Standard Warm-Up

then

Strength: Back Squat

then

For Time:
5 Rounds -
- 100m Sandbag Run
- 5 Sandbag Get-Ups
- 10 Dynamic Burpees

If you are able to make it a little early tonight I would like to move most (if not all) of the equipment into the container before the workout.  I will start on that process at about 6:30, but if you make it before then both sides will be unlocked and you can start moving it over.  We will need the weights, bars, and sandbags for tonight so those don't need to move until after the workout.

Tuesday, September 4, 2012 - Bike/Run

We will not have a workout today, but I will be doing my final training ride for my triathlon next weekend followed by a run both leaving from the church.  The ride will be about 10 miles and the run will be about 4-5.  If anyone is interested in joining me for both or either please text me and let me know.  I will probably start riding about 6:30 and start the run about 7.
