Padrões de movimento WOD:
- Hang Power Clean: Start with the barbell hanging from the hip crease. Initiate the movement by slightly dipping the knees, then extend the hips and legs forcefully. Shrug the shoulders and pull the bar upwards, quickly rotating your elbows under the bar to receive it in the front rack position above parallel. Stand to full extension to complete the rep. The bar must come to a full stop at the hang position before starting the next rep (no bouncing off the floor or continuous cycling from the floor).
- Puxar para cima: 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. Kipping or butterfly pull-ups are typically allowed unless strict pull-ups are specified.
Opções de escalonamento para o WOD:
- Hang Power Clean:
- Reduce the weight of the barbell.
- Perform Dumbbell Hang Power Cleans.
- Reduce the number of repetitions in each round.
- Puxar para cima:
- Flexões com banda (utilizar uma banda de resistência para ajudar).
- Flexões com salto (saltar para colocar o queixo sobre a barra, controlar a descida).
- Fileiras de anéis (ajuste a altura do anel para facilitar ou dificultar).
- Reduce the number of repetitions in each round.
Arrefecimento (5-10 minutos)
- Efetuar alongamentos estáticos centrados em:
- Lats/Shoulders (e.g., Lat stretch on a bar, overhead triceps stretch)
- Forearms and Grip (e.g., Wrist stretches)
- Hamstrings and Hips (e.g., Seated hamstring stretch, pigeon pose)
- Peito (por exemplo, estiramento da porta)
Pontuação: Your score for this WOD is the total time it takes you to complete all the prescribed work. If a time cap is set by your coach and you do not finish, your score is the number of reps completed at the time cap.
Have a strong start to the week with this Monday WOD! Remember to warm up properly and focus on controlled, effective movements.
