The priority is to workout for 18:00.

The goal is to accumulate as many rounds and reps as possible within 18:00.

1 Round = 7:00-9:00, which means we are shooting for 2 rounds minimum and trying to get as far into the 3rd round as we can.

For shoulder-to-overhead movements, the reps increase as the movement changes.

The light loading on the bar will force us to hang on for bigger sets than we are "comfortable" doing, but dig deep for that threshold.

50 Line Hops

Decrease Reps

ROUNDS OF "THE CHIEF"

3 Power Cleans – Reduce load, From the hang, Double Dumbbell

3 Push-ups – On a box, DB Bench

3 Air Squats – To a target

A good long workout – 30:00 of pure joy! 30min time cap!

8:00-10:00 a round = ~3+ Rounds

3 full rounds is the goal!

Remember: After the 50 DU/400m run /50 DU, we then do FIVE rounds of "The Chief" to complete one full round.

Grab a white board or pocker chips for this one. It will be easy to lose track 😉

Watch out for those push-ups – they will come around faster than you would like.

MOVEMENT CONSIDERATIONS

50 Double-Unders will take less than 1:00 and will be just enough to make you not want to run fast, which is ok.

The Run should be a moderate effort. Save the "burn " on the run for towards the end of the workout. That been said, "moderate" doesn’t mean "take it easy" – you know what to do 😉

"The Chief" will be a grind for sure! Move fast on the movements that you can (i.e., Power Clean), and be smart with the movements that may slow you down (i.e., The Push-Ups).

Every athlete is different in terms of what will challenge them the most.

A: Metcon (No Measure)

On the 3:00 x 3 Sets
25′ Double Dumbbell Pausing Step Forward Lunges

25′ Double Dumbbell Step Forward Lunges

Pausing Walking Lunge – :1 pause with back knee on the ground or very very close to the ground.

Dumbbells held in the front rack position, with hands on handles. Build up if you can

B: Metcon (Time)

10 Rounds For Time
3 Ring Muscle-Ups

6 Front Squats (R+155/105, Rx125/85)

13/9 Cal Row or Ski or 9/6 Cal Bike

*25min time cap

MOVEMENT CONSIDERATIONS

MUSCLE-UPS: 3 MU takes ~15 unbroken. The number of Muscle-Ups we choose for today must be unbroken for the majority, if not ALL rounds. We do not want to be staring at rings for :20.

If we are not doing Muscle-Ups, we can modify to a Burpee Pull-Up for 3 reps. This movement preserves the pull and the push. Also good option to modify are decreasing reps (1 MU) or 3 Muscle-Up Kneeling Transitions

FRONT SQUATS: 6 Front Squats should take less than :30 and unbroken. Breaking the 6 up will mean the load is too heavy for today.

The Front Squat will be taken from the ground.

CALS: it should be quick, but it will be uncomfortable.

Again, this amount of calories should take ~ :30 seconds. If we are spending a minute here, the calories are too high.

MODIFICATIONS

[General Order – 1) Intensity via loads, reps/distance, time 2) Movements via modifications, substitutions or replacement (injury)]

RING MUSCLE UPS: Decrease Reps, Ring Muscle Up Transitions (Seated/Banded), Bar Muscle Ups

FRONT SQUATS: Decrease Load, Double Dumbbell/Single DB Goblet, 12 Air Squats

Each movement should be completed with ~1:00.

The goal is to achieve 4+ rounds

MOVEMENT CONSIDERATIONS

Double DB Box Step Over

Hold DB’s by the side.

Substitute for KB’s if want an extra challenge, they hang a little lower and will be a little more awkward.

DB FARMERS CARRY (100m)

Ideally walk out for 50m and back for 50m. If space is lacking try 25m x4

HANGING L-SITS

for an extra challenge use parallettes or rings.
