GENERAL

We’ll complete familiar movements with some odd objects in today’s conditioning piece

We expect this workout to take around 12-15 minutes to complete

DUMBBELL MOVEMENTS

Let’s choose a weight for both movements that you are capable of completing 25+ reps unbroken when fresh

For the power cleans, you only have to touch one head of the dumbbell to the ground on the outside of the feet

BOX JUMP OVERS

Since these are box jump overs, you do not have to stand to full extension on top of the box

TOES TO BAR

Choose a toes to bar variation that you are capable of completing 21+ reps unbroken when fresh

Modifications include reducing reps or choose a sub from the list further down the page

STRATEGY

DUMBBELL MOVEMENTS

The dumbbell movements will likely feel pretty good the first round, but let’s aim to approach the round of 21’s in a way that allows you to crush the round of 15’s

Decide beforehand how you want to break-up the round of 15 and let that fuel your decision on how to attack the round of 21’s

For Example: If you want to get the round of 15 done in 2 sets, it may be helpful to complete the round of 21 in 2-3 sets

Especially with the odd nature of the dumbbells, break up these movements before you have to grind out reps in the first two rounds

Consider the following break-up options for each round

Set of 21

2 Sets: 12-9

3 Sets: 7-7-7 or 8-7-6

4 Sets: 6-5-5-5

5 Sets: 5-4-4-4-4

Set of 15

2 Sets: 8-7

3 Sets: 5-5-5 or 6-5-4

4 Sets: 4-4-3-3

5 Sets: 3-3-3-3-3

Set of 9

2 Sets: 5-4

3 Sets: 3-3-3 or 4-3-2

4 Sets: 3-2-2-2

BOX JUMP OVERS

This movement is the only station where we aren’t holding onto anything

Move at a steady, robotic pace through each round of box jump overs

Lets pace these out to allow for a fast final set of 9

TOES TO BAR

The dumbbell movements will challenge our grip and midline, which we’ll need for the toes to bar

While we could try to hold of for big sets, it may be best to chip away at smaller chunks

STIMULUS

“Giant Sets” are big supersets where you move right from one movement to the next while prioritizing quality over speed

We’ll work through 3 movements in today’s Body Armor piece

Choose dumbbell weights that are challenging, but loads that allow you to complete each set without stopping

You can use different dumbbell weights for each movement if you need to

You can build across the 3 sets or stay at the same weight throughout

Rest as needed between sets to preserve quality movement
