The WOD: Snatched 2.5
Your Mission: Complete as many rounds as you can within a set time. Aim for clean form and consistency over speed.
Exercises:
- 25 Snatches:
Explosive and dynamic, these build strength and coordination. Use a kettlebell, dumbbell, or even a household object like a gallon jug if you’re at home. Alternate arms to stay balanced. - 25 Push-Ups:
Time to crank up the upper body power. Modify with knee push-ups or incline push-ups if needed. Advanced? Try clap push-ups! - 25 Bag Strikes:
Channel your inner fighter with strikes on a punching bag or even air strikes if equipment isn’t available. Stay sharp and keep those fists moving. - 25 Renegade Rows:
Strengthen your back, core, and shoulders. Grab dumbbells or use bodyweight rows. Keep your body in a straight line and focus on control. - 25 Plank Kick-Outs:
Add some spice to your planks! From plank position, kick each leg out to the side, alternating. These work your obliques and test your coordination. - 25 V-Ups:
Feel the burn in your abs! Keep your movements controlled. Beginners can start with tuck-ups if needed. - 25 Goblet Squats:
Wrap it up with some leg and glute work. Use a kettlebell, dumbbell, or any weighted object, and keep your chest up while you squat.
Tips for Success:
- Warm-Up Right: Start with dynamic stretches like arm circles, lunges, and jumping jacks to prepare your body.
- Pace Yourself: This is an AMRAP, so find a steady rhythm that you can maintain throughout.
- Form First: Quality beats quantity every time. Keep your movements controlled and focused.
- Modify If Needed: There’s no shame in scaling! Swap out exercises or adjust reps to fit your current level.
- Cool Down: Stretch out those muscles post-WOD with hip flexor stretches, child’s pose, and a little foam rolling.
