Workout of the Day

3 rounds for time of:
30 GHD sit-ups
30 medicine-ball box step-ups
400-meter medicine-ball run

♀ 14-lb medicine ball and a 20-inch box
♂ 20-lb medicine ball and a 24-inch box

Post time to comments.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today's workout is a longer grunt-style effort. After two days of upper-body pulling and pushing, it's time for lower-body and midline work. Aim to complete a single round in 8 minutes or faster. Choose a medicine ball weight that only requires minimal rest breaks during the step-ups and run — hold the ball any way you like for both. If you have limited experience with the GHD, scale range of motion, and/or total volume. It may also be a good idea to consider weighted or unweighted sit-ups instead.

Intermediate option:
3 rounds for time of:
20 GHD sit-ups to parallel
30 medicine-ball box step-ups
400-meter medicine-ball run

10-lb medicine ball and a 20-inch box
14-lb medicine ball and a 24-inch box

Beginner option:
3 rounds for time of:
20 sit-ups
20 medicine-ball box step-ups
200-meter run

6-lb medicine ball and a 12-inch box
10-lb medicine ball and a 12-inch box

Scaled GHD to KTC

23:00


About 6 hours to get all the tiles set but that part is done. Decided to reward myself with the WOD but GHD just wasn’t gonna happen so went with KTC. I’m good with it because I did a bunch of GHD sit-ups on Saturday. Did nothing particularly fast as the heat index was 100F.

20:52 intermediate but touched the med ball with alternating hands on ghd situps. 6:18/r1//12:56r1+2//then slowed way down while dreading and trying not to be too gassed going into the last med ball run. Oof.


Dad: 24:36 beginner/mostly walking but with 18” box and 6lb ball! Didn’t think he could do it today. Legs still tire from Monday.
