Pirate Fit WOD January 5th, 2011

The Wednesday Workout Of the Day (WOD) is the first from our Alphabet Assault Series. Each letter of the alphabet has a paired exercise. When you spell out different words you get a unique workout. We thought we would kick it off with a couplet (double WOD) named "PIRATE FIT". We hope you are ready to "come aboard".

The first word in the series "PIRATE" is a circuit. Do all six exercises back to back for three rounds of 10 reps with no break.


"PIRATE"
  • 3 Rounds of 10 reps
  • For Time
P - DB Shoulder Press
I - KB Swing
R - DB Pirate Plank Row
A - Air Squat
T - Thruster (DB Squat to Press)
E - Sit Ups

Rx - Prescribed Weights

  • Women DB 20 lbs KB 35 lbs
  • Men DB 40 lbs KB 53lbs
  • Scale weight as needed

WOD # 2
Workout or Walk the Plank - You have a choice you can stay onboard or walk the plank for an easy exit (read - QUIT). Still here... great now get your mind right because it is time to get "FIT". This terrible trifecta is a UNBROKEN Challenge. Do As Many Reps As Possible (AMRAP) until you have to take a break. Continuous reps only! Then take 30s and simply move on to the next exercise. Sounds easy right? Done as a circuit this builds extreme muscular endurance and the mental toughness to tackle even the "Kraken". Count up your total reps of all 3 rounds.

"FIT"
  • 3 Rounds of UNBROKEN sets.
  • Rest 30s between exercises
  • Add up total reps completed
F - Goblet Squat
I - KB Swing
T - Thruster

Rx - Prescribed Weights

  • Women DB 20 lbs KB 35 lbs
  • Men DB 40 lbs KB 53lbs
  • Scale weight as needed

Please remember to post your workout times, reps, weights and comments. We would love to hear from you.

Train Fun!

  3. Hey Coach. Its Coach Huntley. I am considering experimenting with Crossfit workouts. Is the WOD all I should do in a day or should I do additional workouts too?
