- 20 Sit-ups
Spiegazione: Start with a 400-meter run (or the cardio equivalent). Upon finishing the run/cardio, perform 20 Push-ups, then 30 Air Squats, and finally 20 Sit-ups. Once you complete the 20 Sit-ups, immediately start the second round with another 400-meter run. Complete all 4 rounds as quickly as possible while maintaining good form. Record your total time to complete all 4 rounds.
WOD Movement Standards:
- Run: Run the specified distance.
- Row (Calories) / Assault Bike (Calories): Complete the specified number of calories.
- Push-up: Start in a plank position with hands under shoulders. Lower your chest to touch the floor (or slightly above) while maintaining a straight line from head to heels. Push back up to the starting plank position with arms fully extended.
- Air Squat: Stand with feet shoulder-width apart. Hinge at the hips and bend your knees to squat down until your hip crease is below the top of your knee. Stand back up to full extension (hips and knees locked out).
- Sit-up: Lie on your back, usually with feet anchored or in a butterfly position. Touch the ground behind your head with your hands, then sit up and touch your toes or the ground in front of your feet.
