Entrenamiento del día (WOD)
Formato: For Time – Partners Share the Work
The Workout: “Team Effort”
With a partner, complete the following work for time. Partners can split the repetitions in any way they choose unless otherwise specified. Only one partner works at a time, except for synchronized movements (if included).
- 100 calorie Row (Total calories between partners)
- 80 Wall Ball Shots (20 lbs to 10ft for men / 14 lbs to 9ft for women – Total reps)
- 60 Deadlifts (Suggested Weight: 185 lbs for men / 135 lbs for women – Total reps)
- 40 Pull-ups (Total reps)
- 20 Synchronized Burpees (Both partners perform a burpee and jump/clap overhead at the same time)
Explicación: Partners work together to complete the total number of repetitions for each exercise. For the Row, partners can switch on and off as needed to reach 100 calories. For the Wall Ball Shots, Deadlifts, and Pull-ups, partners can split the reps however they want (e.g., 10/10, 20/20, or one partner does more than the other) and switch whenever they need to. Only one partner is actively performing reps at a time (except for the synchronized burpees). For the Synchronized Burpees, both partners must complete each burpee and the jump/clap overhead at the same moment. Your score is the total time it takes both partners to complete all the prescribed work.
Estándares de Movimiento WOD:
- Remo (Calorías): Row until the team reaches the target number of total calories.
- Wall Ball Shot: Colócate frente a una pared con un balón medicinal. Ponte en cuclillas con el balón a la altura del pecho, con el pliegue de la cadera por debajo de la parte superior de la rodilla. Levántate con fuerza, lanzando el balón para golpear el objetivo en la pared. Atrapa el balón y desciende directamente a la siguiente sentadilla.
- Deadlift: Start with the barbell on the floor. With a flat back and engaged core, hinge at the hips and bend your knees to grip the bar. Stand up to full extension (hips and knees locked out, shoulders back), then lower the bar back to the floor with control.
- Pull-up: Hang from the pull-up bar with an overhand grip. Pull yourself up until your chin clearly passes above the horizontal plane of the bar. Extend your arms fully at the bottom.
- Synchronized Burpee: Both partners start standing. Both partners move to the ground, touching chests and thighs simultaneously. Both partners stand back up simultaneously, jumping and clapping hands overhead at the same moment with feet leaving the ground.
