Workout Notes For 17.1:
This is a low back smoker for sure. So much hinging during the snatches and the midline fatigue during the burpees is going to get a few people four sure. This is what I recommend for a warm up and lead up to workout.
Baseline:
Take 5 minutes and roll out low back and calves. Lat Band mobility is also a great idea.
Then,
3X
30 High Knee Jump Rope
12 Banded Good Mornings
12 Banded Upright Rows
12 Banded Press
____
15 Contralateral Glute kicks/ arm reach
15 Iron Cross
15 Scorpion
Dumbbell Prep;
-progress through set up position with chest up and midline engaged.
-exaggerate the triple extension and punch hard overhead, finishing with shoulder near the ear.
-cycling is key so bring the DB straight back down to shoulder and hinge the hips far back to drop the DB right between the feet.
-quick hand transition is key
Box Jump;
-burpee should begin about 20" from the box to allow room for jump or step up . Bring feet wide to allow back not to be flexed upon standing.
- jump hard but stay low when transitioning over the box.
-find a pace and stick to it. There is much more to be won by keeping a steady pace than trying to rush the reps.
-dont lay on the floor, get up quick
Perform a couple sets of a few reps of each. Don't worry about peaking your heart rate to much, I feel it better to remain in an aerobic state for efficiency. YOu will need all the air you can when you are deep in the burpees.
