RULES FOR CREATING YOUR WORKOUT
STEP 1 – Pick the exercises
Choose 5 exercises from the following list (click on the page numbers at the bottom of this page to find the different exercises). You can do this randomly without looking first, or scan through and pick the exercises that you think will work well together.
STEP 2 – Pick the structure
Choose the structure of your workout from the following:
Tabatta
- Work out hard for 20 seconds
- Rest for 10 seconds
- Complete 10 rounds
15 minute AMRAP
30 seconds of each exercise in turn. As little rest as possible.
STEP 3 – Post it in the comments section and Tag your friends
Don’t forget to tag the people that will do this workout with you.
EXAMPLE
Here is my workout:
15 min AMRAP of exercises: 3,4,10,14 and 15.
30 seconds on each exercise…
This works out as:
- Feet elevated rink plank
- Tall to Half Kneeling Get Ups With Ball
- Dumbbell Side Plank
- Windshield Wipers
- Hollow rocks
The core strength workout you have just designed will help you become a heathier, stronger and more confident athlete. As always in Crossfit, function comes first, and the core is an incredibly important part of all functional movement, so that is why it must not be neglected. Abs are often mistakenly seen as a sign of a strong core, but it is possible to have well defined rectus abdominis (the outer muscles that form a 6 pack) and still have a weak core.
Give it a try by choosing your 5 numbers first then find out what your workout will be.
1. Single Arm DB Overhead Split Squat
The single leg variations are endless. It should keep you busy for a couple months. On the heels of our single Arm Overhead Squat from two days ago, this movement will be a little more accessible for many. The Flexibility to hit this position is significantly less than the double leg squat version.
Ensure you Body tracks straight up and straight down.
