WOD Saturday “Touchdown!”
Notice: Remember to always start with a 5 minute warmup and 5 minute total body stretch before starting any of our WOD’s!
1a– Stability ball squats on the wall: Use dumbbells to provide added resistance on this one. Begin with 12-15 reps, drop the weight slightly, and continue for another 10-12 reps. Put the weights aside and move immediately into:
1b– Lunges: Go back and forth on each leg for 45 sec, stand up, catch your breath (5 sec or so) and do another 45 sec. Rest 10 sec, then move right into:
1c– Squat jumps: We’re going to perform 10 sec on with a 5 sec rest, 5 times. Simply squat and jump onto an elevated platform (or no platform- depending on conditioning level). 10 sec of jumps, rest for 5 sec, and repeat – at least 5 times. Rest for 20 sec and move into:
2a– Dumbbell rows: Begin with 12-15 reps, drop the weight slightly and continue for another 10-12 reps. Put the weight down, grab some light dumbbells and finish with 45 sec on. Rest for 20 sec and repeat.
2b- Kettlebell deadlifts: Perform 15-20 reps, drop the weight and continue for another 12-15 reps. Put the weight aside and perform 20 sec of squat thrusts to finish things off.
3- Chest Press on Stability Ball/Push up combo: Perform 2 sets of 12-15 reps with a single drop in weight for another 8-10 reps. After each set, come off the ball and do as many push ups as you can perform in 25 sec. Take a couple of deep breaths and perform:
4- Kickbacks/close grip wall pushouts: Perform 2 sets (kicks for 45 sec and pushouts for 30 sec). No rest between exercises, just a 15 sec rest between sets.
5- Dumbbell press/lateral raise combo: (take a step forward and lean your body weight on forward leg): Perform 2 sets of 12-15 reps with a single drop in weight for another 10-12 reps on the press. After each set of presses, perform as many side lateral raises as you can for 30 sec.
6- Dumbbell/hammer curl combo: Perform 2 sets (regular curls for 45 sec and hammers for 30 sec). No rest between exercises, just a 15 sec rest between sets.
Have Fun!!
