LG Workouts Week of 052823

Monday, May 29, 2023
Group Warmup (10 min): 3 rounds of 10 glute bridges, 20 jumping jacks, 10 fire hydrants/side

Murph as Rx’d is:

1 mile run

100 pullups, 200 pushups, 300 air squats (partitioned as so desired–most folks do rounds of 5 pulls, 10 push, 15 squats)

1 mile run

Scaling options:

1) Easiest one is a half workout: 800m run (sub 1000m row or 4 min bike), 10 rounds of 5 pullups/ring rows, 10 pushups, 20 air squats, 800m run.  This is a great option if you have been training a few months but don’t feel up to a full version yet.  You can add 1 min of cardio (bike, row, 200, jog) at the end of each round to add a little extra time to the workout without crushing your muscles.

2) Movement substitutions to diversify muscular fatigue

*For pullups, sub in ring rows, db rows, heavy kb swings…mix it up so you don’t get the pulling muscles too fatigued

*For pushups, sub in DB Floor Press, Ring Rows, Situps…again, mix it up!  Pushups are usually where folks hit failure first.

*For squats, sub in KB Swings every other round
