Begin with an 800 m run, then:
2 push press 55/95
2 front squat 55/95
2 bent row 55/95
Rest precisely 1 min. Add 2 reps and repeat. Continue up the hill as far as you are able. Setting the bar down during the complex ends the workout. Once you have topped out, post highest number of reps per complex completed, then go run another 800.
Daily Extras -
Run your 800 then take a 3 min rest. Beginning with the number of reps where you left off, come back down the hill subtracting 4 reps per round. End with no fewer than 4 reps. Run another 800 to finish the workout.
Workout Notes:
- It looks like this:
- 1st round pick up the bar, do 2 press, 2 squat, 2 row, put the bar down and rest 1 min.
- 2nd round pick up the bar do 4,4,4 put the bar down and rest 1 min. and so on...
- It's imperative that you keep your spine neutral.
- If your back starts to twinge a bit, drop weight and shallow up the squat. Post alts/subs to comments.
- Keep track of total reps. Soreness factor (especially in the legs) will be a thing for some of you above 56 reps (set 14) at this weight (vets ignore-ish).
- Note where you fail and why. You may be weak in that area (OH, wind, back). Ask trainer for specific strengthening/conditioning exercises (off-site post to comments, please be as detailed and introspective as possible) to overcome this weakness.
- You'll be running an 800 before and after this workout.
- Vets will run an 800 before, mid and post.
