Overhead Squat & Ring Dip Practice
- Overhead Squat Mobility: Spend time on ankle, hip, and shoulder mobility to achieve a strong Overhead Squat position. Use a PVC pipe or empty barbell. Practice overhead squats with a pause at the bottom.
- Overhead Squat Technique: Perform a few sets of 3-5 reps of Overhead Squats with a very light barbell, focusing on stability and form before the WOD.

Allenamento del giorno (WOD)
Formato: For Time (with a 20-minute time cap)
The Workout: “Mid-Week Mixer”
Completare quanto segue per il tempo:
- 500 meter Row
- 30 Overhead Squats (Suggested Weight: 75 lbs for men / 55 lbs for women)
- 20 Ring Dips
- 400 meter Run
- 20 Ring Dips
- 30 Overhead Squats
- 500 meter Row
Spiegazione: Start by rowing 500 meters. Once finished, move to the barbell for 30 Overhead Squats. After the squats, perform 20 Ring Dips. Then, immediately go for a 400-meter run. After the run, perform another 20 Ring Dips, followed by 30 Overhead Squats. Finish the workout with another 500-meter row. Your score is the total time it takes to complete all the prescribed work. There is a 20-minute time cap for this WOD.
WOD Movement Standards:
- Fila: Eseguire la distanza specificata sul vogatore Concept2.
- Overhead Squat: Start with the barbell in the overhead position (arms locked out, active shoulders). Squat down until your hip crease is clearly below the top of your knee. Stand to full extension with the barbell still overhead.
- Ring Dip: Start with arms extended and locked out on the rings. Lower your body until your shoulders are below your elbows. Push back up to full extension.
- Correre: Eseguire la distanza specificata.
Opzioni di scala per il WOD:
- Row / Run:
- Reduce the distance (e.g., 300m Row, 200m Run).
- Substitute Row with 25/20 Calorie Assault Bike.
- Overhead Squat:
- Reduce the weight (e.g., PVC pipe, empty barbell, or dumbbells).
- Perform Front Squats or Back Squats if overhead mobility is a major limitation.
- Ridurre il numero di ripetizioni.
- Ring Dip:
- Banded Ring Dips (use a resistance band for assistance).
- Box Dips (perform dips with hands on a box or bench).
- Push-ups (on the floor or elevated).
- Ridurre il numero di ripetizioni.
Raffreddamento (5-10 minuti)
- Eseguire stiramenti statici concentrandosi su:
- Spalle e tricipiti (ad esempio, allungamento della testa, allungamento dei tricipiti)
- Hips and Hamstrings (e.g., Pigeon pose, seated hamstring stretch)
- Calves (e.g., Wall calf stretch)
- Parte bassa della schiena (ad esempio, posizione del bambino)
Punteggio: Your score for this WOD is the total time it takes you to complete all the prescribed work. If you do not complete the workout within the 20-minute time cap, your score is “20:00 + (remaining reps)”. For example, if you finish the second 30 OHS but have 100m left on the final row, your score would be “20:00 + 100m”.
Have a challenging and rewarding workout on Wednesday! Remember to prioritize good form, especially in the Overhead Squats.
