TRX Reverse Rows, RFE Split Squats and Pushups

No gym, sore shoulder… a slow, rebuilding workout after a week of rest.

Every 90 seconds for 24 minutes (4 rounds of each)

  • Station 1 – 8-10 x TRX Reverse Rows
  • Station 2 – 8-10 x TRX Rear Foot Elevated Split Squat with Sandbag @ 15kg Left Leg
  • Station 3 – 8-10 x TRX RFE Split Squat with Sandbag @ 15kg Right Leg
  • Station 4 – 10-15 Pushups

Results: Done as shown. Slight ache in my shoulder during the pushups but no significant pain, so figured it is OK.

Ab Work then SDL and DUs

A couple of ab workouts from Kari Pierce’s Instagram…

4 rounds of 30 seconds on/30 seconds off

Get in Russian Twist position without any weight, then simulate rope climb with arms.

Then a 1-10 ladder of

Then for time a 2-4-6…20 ladder of

  • Single Leg Deadlift @ 15kg (do all reps on one leg before switching to next)
  • Between each round 30 Double Unders

Results: Interesting combo, Single Leg Toe Touches were hard as were the SDL, even with the light weight. Metcon 17:22.

Mountain Climbers, Wall Sit, RFE Squats

Now that I have shipped all my weights to our new home in CH, only have a limited set of equipment…. jump rope, TRX, 15kg Sandbag, a bucket full of sand, my own bodyweight. So tried something new by doing this workout from Semir Jasarvic on Instagram.

4 rounds, rotate through each movement, 35 seconds on/25 seconds off

  • 1 – Wall plank mt. climbers
  • 2 – Wall sit extensions
  • 3 – Wall donkey kicks⁣
  • 4 – Rear foot elevated wall squats⁣
  • 5 – Dynamic Planks
  • 6 – Single leg wall glute bridge

Results: All new movements so the first couple of rounds were not very good but got the hang of it by the end.

Warning… for #5 Up/Down Wall Planks, almost dislocated my weak (right) shoulder on the first rep so switched to just dynamic planks. Will see what damage was done once I cool down 🙁

For #1, started as shown but switched to just slow tempo Mountain Climbers since the original was so intense on the shoulders and I didn’t feel anything in my Core.

#3 was my favorite. Will need to do more of those!
