"Back Up Terry" 12 min

AMRAP 12:
8 Dumbbell Push Jerks (R)
8 Dumbbell Step Back Lunges*
8 Dumbbell Push Jerks (L)
8 Dumbbell Step Back Lunges*
40 Double Unders

Dumbbell: 50 / 35 lb
*Hold 1 Dumbbell Across The Shoulders In Both Hands

Stimulus
  • Overview: This workout is a spin-off of individual quarterfinals workout 23.2. Athletes will be challenged to hold onto the dumbbell until all reps of push jerks and lunges have been completed. We are looking to complete about 6 rounds (2 minute rounds).
  • Dumbbell Push Jerks: These should be performed with the dumbbell held in one hand. These must be push jerks (land and stand) and may not be push presses.
  • Dumbbell Lunges: Hold single dumbbell in the front rack position for the lunge (across the shoulders in both hands). Athletes should alternate legs every rep (4 each).
  • Double Unders: Should be completed in 1 minute or less.
  • Score: Rounds + Reps
Strategy
  • Let's aim to hold onto the dumbbell until all dumbbell reps have been completed.
  • If we end up needing a break, let's only take it after a full set of lunges have been completed (8 Push Jerks + 8 Lunges, then rest).
  • Before we decide to break on the dumbbell, let's add a break in on the jump rope. These breaks will be much quicker than breaks on the dumbbell and will save us lots of time.
