Travelling this week, so this short Streetparking WOD which was posted on Instagram was a good choice.  I modified it slightly since I didn’t have any rope to do Double Unders (Rx had 100 DUs instead of the run).

For time 

  • Run 400m/0.25mi
  • 50 x Single Arm Overhead Dumbbell Reverse Lunges (25 right arm overhead /25 left arm overhead) @ 35lbs
  • 50 x V-Ups (or Toes to Bar if you have a bar)
  • 50 x Single Arm Overhead Dumbbell Reverse Lunges
  • Run 400m

Results:  13:24.
