2010 Mar 09 – TUES

Development Work

Workout

As many rounds as possible in 20 minutes of:

  • 16 – 60 lb piston press in a bridge position on BOSU
  • 12 – 135 lb power clean
  • 8 – pullup

Start with a warmup of your choosing.  Do a few sets with lighter weight of development work on whatever you feel needs improvement (flexibility, a certain lift, rounds kicks, hooks, a gymnastic movement, whatever).

Workout – a piston press is an alternating dumbell press.  Take a bridge position with your feet flat on the floor and upper back on a BOSU.  Your body should be parallel to the floor.  Repeat the triplet as many times as possible in 20 minutes.

Record number of rounds.

Post number of rounds to comments.

Development Work

Strength

  • Press: 5, 4, 3, 2, 1

Conditioning

4 rounds for time:

  • 10 tire flips + 2 jump ups per flip
  • 20 kettlebell swings
  • 30 double hook combinations
Here’s how the workouts should flow.  Start with a warmup of your choosing.  Get the blood flowing, body temp up, and lube your joints.Development work means practice whatever you aren’t good at.  If you can’t do pullups, practice pullups.  If your overhead squat sucks, practice overhead squats.  The focus is on skill.  Don’t kill yourself during this part, just a few sets with very light weight or even just a PVC pipe.

Strength - do this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GJFjYyA40ss&feature=related 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 reps.  Challenge yourself.  The last rep will be your new 1 rep max.  Rest as needed in between sets and go up in weight for each set.  Record your weights.

Conditioning - find a tire and flip it, then jump up on it twice.  Extend your hip fully when you jump on the tire.  Record the weight that you use for the kettlebell swings.  The hook combination is either 2 left hooks or 2 right hooks, 30 times.  Feel free to alternate sides.  The combination is done at full speed and power.  Do 4 rounds and record your time.

Development Work

Strength

  • Squat: 5×5
  • Snatch 1 rep max

Start with a warmup of your choosing.  Do a few sets with lighter weight of development work on whatever you feel needs improvement (flexibility, a certain lift, a gymnastic movement, whatever).

Strength - do this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kawBY5p29fQ 5 sets of 5 reps.  I would suggest watching Rippetoe’s other videos on the squat.  Type “rippetoe squat” into youtube and watch anything you can.  If you want to punch hard, run fast, jump high or punch hard, you have to squat.  Rest as needed in between sets, but go heavy.  Record your weights.

Find your 1 rep max on the snatch.  Record your weight.

Workout – The flying knee is just like your regular knee strike.  Just explode off of the floor and drive your entire body through your target.  Don’t be afraid to get the “flying” part.  If you don’t have a Glute Ham Developer, you can do glute ham raises with a partner holding your legs or like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch#v=Rg_hxBHPX_k&feature=related

Record your time.
