“Strength Day”

So, I don’t really do heavy day, but sometimes I need a workout that is challenging but not cardio intense…like after I’ve eaten a big meal or to break up consecutive days of being on the struggle bus. If I need to workout in the afternoon/evening I do something like this one because if I don’t workout in the morning, a fast workout feels barfilicious.

WORKOUT —

20 Rounds:

5 Weighted Pull Ups/Strict Pull Ups/Banded Pull Ups

7 GHDs/Weighted Sit Ups

3 (Heavy) Deadlifts

---

Choose the option that is most challenging but that you can do unbroken almost every round. If you’re just not into something on the slower side, you can do this with kipping pull ups, sit ups and burpees or a lighter barbell and really try to cruise.

If you love a good EMOM, go for it. Try out a few rounds and pick a rep scheme that you can finish in 40-45 seconds at the start.

For the deadlifts, pick a weight that is heavy but that you can do for three reps without dropping the bar at the start (okay if you’re down to singles by the end). If you fancy a different barbell movement, do it, same weight recommendation applies.
