Coaches’ Challenge

  • In lieu of a cash out we have a special Coaches’ Challenge today. Every hour on the hour, from 8am – 7pm (12 rounds), perform 25 air squats. Set a timer, text your friends, whatever you need to hold yourself accountable!

  • Happy baby pose – 1 minute

WOD Notes: Click here for a video explanation of today’s workout, and here for a more detailed explanation of the KB/DB clean. Today is a lower body strength day. You’ll work hard for a minute, then rest for a minute, for a total of 30 minutes. Post to comments: Weight used, modifications, and a smiley face or the word “complete.” No need to track reps, just word hard and make it look pretty.

Schedule Notes: We have 2 virtual classes tomorrow – 6:00am & 6:00pm. We hope you can join us! Please reserve your spot in Wellness Living, then join class using the Zoom link on our blog. The classes will open up with 25 squats for the Coaches’ Challenge. Even if you can’t stay for the entire class, feel free log into Zoom for a few minutes to do the squats with your long lost ICA friends.

FUCS Challenge Notes: We’re 2 weeks into the challenge… right about the time we all *thought* we’d be returning to the gym. No such luck. #FUCS #WorstAprilFoolsJokeEver. We’re grateful for each one of you who has posted your results to the blog – even if you’re not officially doing the FUCS challenge. It’s undeniable evidence that our ICA spirit, camaraderie, and determination is alive and well! So here’s our challenge for you: Sometime this week, get at least 1 non-ICA member (a friend, family member, coworker, etc) to do an ICA workout and post it to the blog. Have them note your name in their comment. CrossFit is for everyone, and with these at-home workouts, CrossFit is more accessible than ever. Let’s share our passion with others who might benefit from the amazing community of support that ICA has to offer!

    30# DB for reverse lunges

    For anyone that owns a rower, here’s a Concept 2 Challenge a few of us will be undertaking:

    April 1 – 1,000m
    April 2 – 2,000m
    April 3 – 3,000m
    So on and so forth until
    April 15 – 15,000m
    (don’t do the math…just tackle it per day as they need not be single sessions)

      Thanks Dave! I’m going to join the challenge! I’ll curse you for this multiple times because I’m a terrible rower, but I’m in!

      1. Boelker

        Yaaasss!

  3. Diana G

  4. Steve Keiper

    35# DB for all

  5. Kerri Oglesby

    11# gear… Will be searching the basement for something heavier πŸ˜‰

  6. Stuart

    13# laundry detergent bottle for all, complete. πŸ˜€
    A random day off after 7 months in a new job and this is the WOD. My lower body is going to hate me for a few days.

  7. Meg V

    That’s was rough! All the Valentino girls completed it! Sadie was modified and body weight, Zoe used a band and 13#kb, Megan used band and 30# kb.

  8. Mado and Kelsey

    Mado and Kelsey… Did it πŸ₯³ (heaviest weight used was 35# KB, lightest was 20# DB)

  9. Mary D

    Done. I don’t know why I look at some of the WOD’s and think- That’s not so bad. Then I get halfway through and think- Holy Sh*t, this is tough. Perhaps it’s my newbie-ness. I used a 20#KB. I tried the cleans but, I don’t think I was doing it quite right so did KB swings instead for that part of each round. I’m still doing my hourly squats. Started at 8AM and will finish at 8PM.

    1. Ricky

      Nice job, Mary! I wouldn’t fault your β€œnewbie-ness”. In fact, I routinely have my butt handed to me in workouts that looked relatively benign and β€œnot too bad” the night before. It comes with the territory. Keep up the great work!

    2. Danielle

      Mary, I’ve been at ICA for five and a half years. And I still have never learned not to think β€œthat doesn’t look too bad.” Yesterday being a prime example 🀣🀣🀣

  10. KtL

    Completed!!!

    1. Marissa W

      20 lb DB
      For the cleans I used 2 15# DBs instead of one DB
      For good mornings subbed a purple band

  11. Danielle

    I liked this one a lot. But it hurts. Lololol.

    I used a 32.4lb DB. A band for good mornings. And I did goblet squats instead of cleans bc they just didn’t work with my DB.

  12. Tammy Mazz

    26# KB πŸ˜‰

  13. McGee

    No WOD but decided to enjoy what little sun we had. Started relocating the garden beds. Picked heavy things up and moved them across the yard. I’ll still probably be sore tomorrow.

    1. ICA admin

      Nothing like picking up heavy stuff. That’s the kind of Rocky IV montage fitness that dreams are made of.

      1. McGee

        One of my favorites. Need to find an idle fashioned cart and some friends for the next round of thrusters.

  14. Thomas Balch

    Went rogue today,was not feeling Kettle bells today, sorry. But instead I did

    The warm up minus kettle bell then
    4 rounds each 50 SU, 15 box jumps (24″), 10 ring rows.

  15. Alex W

    Check. 35#KB and 20lb vest

  16. Jenn

    Jenn
    This was very spicy especially with all these squats thrown in the day!!πŸ˜‚
    #35 DB

  17. Steven Marcucio

    That hurt. My lateral squat is garbage.

  18. Curtis

    So i flipped the script for the WOD but your kettle bell was there with me the whole time. Crushed the warm up tho.
    50-40-30-20-10 of double unders/RKBS with a 400m run between each set NFT so i crushed it.

  19. Martello

    I went off script today. I did the 300 air squats in sets of 25 and 750 SU in sets of 50 – 70.

  20. Faith

    This was a good one!!
    30# DB for everything. Those cleans and split squats got spicy!!
    I completely forgot about the squats throughout the day, so I did a cash out of 100. Might do a few more a little later.

  21. Bill

    Mission accomplished with 35# DB and coaches challenge. My legs feel like spaghetti πŸ™‚
