1. KB alternate back press - work up at each level with low reps til at max
   
2. KB renegade rows - work up at each level with low reps til at max

• stability level practice the two lifts alternating the two working up slowly doing sets of 12 or more at each level til you cannot do more.

alternate the two doing work ups til you are at your Max work load, then do vertical jumps 2/1/0, then do broad jumps 2/1/0 unless you're stability level.

NOTE: Remember your best jump from last weeks and try to beat it at each 2/1/0 level!

1. Vertical Jump - 2/1/0 power jumper x 10 to rim jumps (mark your final height of best jump when not resisted (at 0).
   
2. Broad Jump - 2/1/0 power jumper x 5 jumps as far as possible (mark your longest jump when not resisted (at 0).

NOTE: Like last mondays workout, this is totally fine to go real heavy here instead and do 1-3 a set!

• women: 8k's/12k's/16k's - Tops for women was Jessica Rucker who at 130 lbs did 41 reps with the 24s!!!

Make sure to bump up your reps this week, adding 1 rep a set or every other set is the way to progress here. OR go up to the next level!! The Big Goal is to hit 100 reps (sets of 5), if you've hit it before then use the next weight up. Each week your goal is to add reps OR move up to the next level of resistance and then you'll probably begin at around 60-80 reps (sets of 3-4).

7 100s AFAP

100 yard box push > 100 reps battling ropes fast hands > 100 skaters (each way) >

100 yard box push > 100 reps battling ropes sidewinders > 100 skaters (ea. way, no arms) >

100 yard crawling = post total time!!

*fast hands is alternating hands..similar to running form for arms, as fast as you possibly can for reps each arm = 1...not 2:)
*sidewinders are same base position but taking the arms in and out at hip level at the same time or in unison from left to right making the rope make a sidewinder snake type of movement.
if you dont have a battling rope (50 foot rope that is 1.5" thick)
then grab a BIG beach towel and do the same drills for double reps...ever fan yourself off with a beach towel?
well that is the same drill here:) doing it fast kicks your butt!
