Mid-week, we turn up the heat with “Valet Parking.” Every 3 minutes, complete 6 Squat Cleans and 12 Burpee Box Jump Overs, repeating this cycle seven times.
Thursday: Rings and Neurological & Core Test
Thursday’s schedule highlights the Rings and Neurological & Core Test, which will help us understand where we are and how far we’ve come.
Friday: Power Snatch + OH Squat and ‘Jeep Safari’
Kickstart your Friday with a 10-minute EMOM Power Snatch + OH Squat, then transition into the WOD, “Jeep Safari.” This includes 4-8-12-8-4-8, Hang Power Snatch, 8 Overhead Squats, and a 200m Run.
Saturday: Front Squats and ‘Charcoal’
Round off the week with some front squats and accessory work. Our final WOD of the week is “Charcoal.” Done in pairs, it includes three sets each of 12-15 Barbell Rows, and 15-20 BB RDLs with as much rest as needed. Follow this with three more sets each of 12-15 Floor Press and 15-20 Db Lateral Raises.
Remember, every workout allows you to test your boundaries and push yourself further. Embrace the challenges of Test Week, and don’t forget that this journey is yours. Celebrate every progress and keep striving towards your personal best.
Stay strong, stay dedicated. See you at UAC!
