Workout for week of 10/15/12
Complete as many rounds as you can in 30 minutes of:
10 Pull-ups
10 Dips
10 Barbell Thrusters (135lbs men, 95lbs women, or just use a challenging weight)
10 Toes-to-bar
Modifications
--If you can't do regular pull-ups then grab a stool, chair, bench, etc., and do jumping pull-ups (jump into the up position, come down slowly) instead.
--If you can't do regular dips on bars then do dips on a bench or chair with your legs out straight in front of you. If that's still too hard then bend your knees so your feet are flat on the floor.
--Be sure to keep your abs tight throughout the movement of the barbell thruster! Failure to do so will compromise your lower back which none of us need.
--If you can't get your toes all the way to the bar then just do knees-to-elbows. If that is still too hard switch to hanging knee raises. It's all basically the same movement, you're just adjusting how high you bring your feet/legs for your fitness level.
Have fun and enjoy!
