January 21, 2017 – Masters Program

A.
To prepare for your strict muscle-ups, watch this tutorial by Travis Ewart

40-49:
Three sets of:
4/3 Strict Muscle-Ups + 30′ Handstand Walk
Rest 2-3 minutes

50-54:
Three sets of:
3/2 Strict Muscle-Ups + 15-25′ Handstand Walk
Rest 2-3 minutes

55-59:
Three sets of:
2/1 Strict Muscle-Ups + 15-25′ Handstand Walk
Rest 2-3 minutes

60+:
Three sets of:
1 Strict Muscle-Up + 10-15′ Handstand Walk OR 3 Wall Climbs
Rest 2-3 minutes

If you are still working getting your strict muscle-up, then do this progression instead:
Muscle-Up Transition with Feet on Floor x 3-5 reps
You can make this more challenging by taking out the hip drive and elevate your feet on a box.

B.
For time:
30 Calorie Assault Bike
15 Ground to Overhead
20 Calorie Assault Bike
10 Ground to Overhead
10 Calorie Assault Bike
5 Ground to Overhead

40-49: 155/105 lbs
50-54: 135/95 lbs
55+: 115/75 lbs

Lets attack that barbell cycling with an elevated heart rate. Work on quickly cycling through the ground to overhead and not walking away from the barbell if you do break it up. If you do break up the barbell cycling then get your shins to the barbell immediately and hands back on for your next rep.

C.
Three sets of:
V-Ups x 15 reps
Arch Tuck Extend on Box x 6 reps
Flutter Kicks on KBs

x 20-30 seconds

A. 1 strict MU + 15′ handstand walk – MU’s happened fairly easily today and handstand walks were good as well. Happy because I haven’t tried strict MU’s in quite some time and was worried I would not be able to do them. Ed was making them look easy, so I was hoping to follow his lead. B. Only two airdynes for the three of us, so I went with the concept 2 instead. I let Ed and Willie use the bike. Just did the same number of calories rather than trying to adjust for the rower. (10:14). No real… Read more »
