864 Strength + Conditioning WOD – The Grind:

Tabata – 8×20/10
a.) Hold on Pull-up Bar
b.) Plank Hold

then – AMRAP 8
5 OHS
10 DUs

The fastest time on the board with sloppy form = No Good. No Rep. Nobody is impressed. Keep it Legit!

Let’s get this week kicked off in a strong 864 kind of way….

RX – Full ROM. RX on Tababa = All UB/ No breaks – No drops. / Load on OHS = 95/65 – scale load as needed / use PVC if unable to use barbell.

February Challenge – Thrusters. Accumulate as many Thrusters during the month of February. Score will be total pounds – Reps x Load. All reps that are counted must be at 864 before or after daily workout. There will be two options – RX 95/65 and BEAST MODE 135/95. You have to pick one and stick with it. All reps must be Full ROM/ No half thrusters.
