Plate Walks and Front Squats then Kettlebell Swings and V-Ups

Part A: Practice Handstand Plate Walks

Part B: Perform 5 rounds of the following

  • 5 x Front Squats @ 50kg
  • Rest 2 minutes

Part C: Then for time do the following:

  • 40 x Kettlebell Swings
  • 10 x V-Ups
  • 30 x Kettlebell Swings
  • 10 x V-Ups
  • 20 x Kettlebell Swings
  • 10 x V-Ups
  • 10 x Kettlebell Swings
  • 10 x V-Ups

Results:  For Part A, my original idea was to do 5 rounds of Handstand Shoulder Touches but I decided I am no where near ready for that yet so I practiced plate walks instead.  By the end I could get 4  in relatively controlled form (2 per hand) before losing balance and having to come down.  It seems like you need to concentrate on shifting weight from one hand to the other as you step up and down, I can see how these are a good progression to handstand walks.

For Part C, 6:15.  All rounds of swings went unbroken.

For the Record:  Second day in a row I was able to do a round of 50 unbroken Double Unders during my warm-up!  Finally 🙂
