We’re celebrating Coach Alex today before he moves on with some of his favorite movements! Well, maybe not the burpees but we couldn’t resist throwing those in:) You’ll have seven minutes to work through as many reps as possible of either a burpee pull-up or a burpee muscle up on either a bar or rings. A great scaling option for the burpee today if you don’t want to to pull-ups or muscle ups would be burpee to a target. Set yourself up under a bar that is slightly out of your reach and then jump to touch it with both hands after each burpee. After resting for one minute you’ll move on to a heavy barbell to complete as many power cleans as possible in seven minutes. Go for a challenging weight today that forces you to work in singles and not sets. We recently did a five minute AMRAP of power cleans. If you remember what weight you did for that workout consider bumping the weight up a bit today. If classes are large the order of the workout can be reversed to make room on the pull-up bars or rings. Whether you start on the barbell or on the burpees your score will be your total reps at the end of the fifteen minutes.

Today’s workout can be done with a barbell, dumbbell or kettlebell. If you are working with a dumbbell or kettlebell your score will be much higher than those using a heavy barbell so prepare yourself for a high rep workout! For the burpee pull-up or muscle up you can either do regular burpees in place or find a target you can jump and touch after each rep to mix things up. If you have access to a pull-up bar or rings definitely go for the pull-up or muscle up after each burpee! Your score today will be your total power cleans plus all your burpee reps. See you on the leaderboard!
