3rd March 2008 - Kensington

Where: Kensington Primary

When: 5:00PM

Equipment: Plates (6x20, 2x10), Sled, fat rope, KB (2x 20, 2x24, 1x16), Heavy Sandbag

Warm Up: Heat the Pan
5 pull-ups
10 push-ups
15 squats
10 rounds for time

Workout: Old School Sweating Blood Strength Challenges

11) Harnessed sled bear crawl/push-up combo: Attach harness, weight will be relatively light (20-30kg), bear crawl 25M - 20 push ups - for 200M or 10 minutes

2) 2) Fat Rope with attached Kettlebell Rope Pulling for 10 minutes – attach rope to the kettlebell. Standing with a slight squat, pull the rope hand over hand until the Kettlebell reaches your feet. That equals one rep. Continue for as many reps as possible in a 10 minute time period and record your reps.

3) 3) 20KG Plate relay: take all the 20kg I have and pile them in one spot. Pick one or two at a time, jog them to the end line 15M away, keep going until all the plates are piled at the finish line. Repeat this work for 10 minutes non stop.

4) 4) One Kilometer (3 lap of Kensington) Sand Bag Walk – using a sandbag half of your bodyweight (no need to be perfect but get close to it), you are going to carry the sandbag for 1km without allowing the bag to touch the ground. Hold the bag any way you want In front of body or on the shoulder – push to your max, pick that bag up and haul ass!

Notes:





Saturday 1st March 2008

Place: Cottesloe Beach (On the beach in front of Indianas)


Time: 7:30am

Equipment: KB (2x16, 20, 24)

Warm up: KB Complex

Workout: 30/30 intervals combined with swim around the pylon

30/30 intervals: 30 seconds of work followed by 30 seconds of “rest” taken in a compromised position, repeated four times, 4 minutes total (per movement)

Swim around Cottesloe Pylon

Then:

30/30 Push-up (rest locked out at top, aka Forward Leaning Rest)

Then:

Swim around Cottesloe Pylon

Then:

30/30 KB Swing = Dead Hang (rest between KBS intervals is the Dead Hang)

Then:

Swim around Cottesloe Pylon

Then:

30/30 One Arm KB Push Press (rest is taken with KB held overhead with arms locked-out; switch hands after each rest)

Then:

Swim around Cottesloe Pylon

Then:

30/30 Squat (rest in bottom hold of squat, thighs parallel to floor)

Then:

Swim around Cottesloe Pylon


Scored by total number of reps, actual rest may be taken during work intervals because it reduces score, player must not fall out of position during “rest” intervals – the penalty is an extra round for every infraction. Also note time for each swim.
