MODIFICATIONS
DOUBLE-UNDERS
Decrease the reps / Attempts within :45 /Single Unders x 50
POWER SNATCH
Decrease the load – think 5 pretty reps in a row – that’s the right loading.
Hang Power Snatch
Injuries/Limitations – Use a DB/KB
Snatch Pulls
Three 5-min AMRAP’s with a "long" 5-min rest. Just enough recovery to bring the fire for the next AMRAP! We can push the threshold here.
As we tackle each AMRAP, the load decreases and the repetitions go up. It will get very grippy.
After the row, we are looking at ~3:00 of Double-Under/Snatch work
Each round of the DU/PS round is designed to take about ~1:00. Have your athletes consider this when selecting the load. The loading descends from moderate to very light.

A: Push Press
15 min. to Build to a HEAVY 5 rep Push Press
B: Metcon (AMRAP - Rounds and Reps)
AMRAP 12
8 Lateral Burpee Over Dumbbell
10 Dumbbell Box Step-Overs (R+50/35, Rx 40/25) (R+24/20, Rx20/16″)
12 Single-Arm Dumbbell Clean & Jerk (50/35#)
MODIFICATIONS/SCALING OPTIONS
8 Lateral Burpee Step-Over Dumbbell
10 Dumbbell SL DL (5 each side)
Let’s take the first half of class to build to a heavy 5 rep Push Press (approx. 15 min.)
The second half will be our workout. Faster rounds than yesterday, but with simpler movements.
Rounds will average ~2:00
We are looking for athletes to aim for 5-7 rounds
Three relatively simple movements, but challenging when combined.
The Lateral Burpee Over DB and DB Box Step-Over are quite similar in terms of hip function. This constant flexion of the hip will create havoc on the spine. This is a hot spot to watch for.
LATERAL BURPEE OVER THE DUMBBELL
Two-feet leave the ground at the same time.
DUMBBELL BOX STEP-OVER
Performed with one dumbbell supported in any appropriate style (i.e., by the side; on the shoulder; in the front rack with both hands, etc.)
Although only 10 reps, with the fast turnover it will get grippy quick. Consider having your athletes take deliberate :5 breaks.
SINGLE-ARM CLEAN & JERK
One dumbbell – ground to shoulder to overhead
Perform 6 reps on the right side and 6 reps on the left side. Athletes can manage the reps however they like, as long as 6 are performed on each side every round.
Coming off the DB Box Step-Over, grip may become a factor. Consider having your athletes use a hook grip and/or flash open the fingers (loosen the grip slightly), as the DB is being lowered from the shoulder to the ground.
