Daily WOD – Mar 16, 2020

Megan S getting some work in at home!

At-Home WOD #3

Warm up

  • Jog 400m
  • Spiderman stretches 5R/5L
  • 5 inchworms w/ 1-2 push ups
  • 10 disclocates w/ broomstick
  • 20 behind-the-neck presses w/ broomstick

Workout of the Day

Complete 4 rounds for time of:

  • 400m run
  • 40 broomstick overhead squats

Cash out

  • Accumulate 3 minutes of a elbow plank

Cool Down

  • 2 minutes pigeon stretch L/R

WOD Notes: Click here for a video explanation of today’s workout, including the warm up, cash out, and cool down. If you don’t have an exact 400 meter (1/4 mile) course mapped out, no problem. Take your best guess, or use mapmyrun.com to map a route. Broomstick overhead squats are exactly what they sound like. Grab a broom, mop, or even a stick from your backyard, and hold it overhead while you squat. Modify to back squats if overhead is not comfortable for you.

Community Notes: If you missed our post earlier today, go read up on our FUCS Nutrition & Fitness Challenge, which starts on Wednesday!  Everyone who signs up gets a free Inbody scan ($35 value). If you complete the challenge, you get a 2nd free Inbody scan at the end, and a chance to win 1 month of free membership.

P3 Nutrition Notes: If you ordered P3 meals for this week, you can pick them up Monday morning between 5:30-9:00am, when we’ll be running members through the Inbody scan.

    Thank you for including a warmup. I feel like I never warm up sufficiently when I do it on my own.

    1. Nik

      I am guilty of this too!

  2. Sigal

    Great video. Very much appreciate your work in developing interesting at home WODS. Also, love Sage’s cameos. She’s precious.

    1. Nik

      This was take 2. The first time she almost knocked the camera over and then started crying. I’m glad you enjoyed her cameos because I’m sure there will be more of them!

  3. Betsy

    This video is fantastic! Thanks for making our at home workouts something to look forward to! And, please include Sage and Carver as much as possible!

  4. Christine G

    What is a good sub for running?

    1. Nikki

      If you have a bike, do 3x distance in the bike. Sled drags are also a great a sub – it might be a worth buying one off Amazon. Lastly, a fast hill walk (wear a weight vest if you have one). If none of those options work, shoot me a text. We’ll brainstorm!

  5. Karen

    Great workout!!! 18:56. Gave the run a shot, felt good so far😀

    1. Nik

      Great job!

  6. BWats

    18:35 (row)
    Thanks for the videos! Loved the cameo from Sage.

  7. Megan S

    16:02 (run was only .20 according to MMR, but it was with a jogging stroller) 🙂

  8. Tiago

    Took these two dor a run and tried to adjust the work out.
    2.3Miles + 3x40OHS with 2×4 beam + 3 min plank (jesus was dead at this point).

    1. Nat

      I was with Jesus – dead. 😉

  9. Ricky

    Well done, crew! Great to see you all getting after it!

  10. Mado 😊

    13:08 – ran on treadmill set at 8 miles/hours for 2 min each round (it takes about 15 seconds to get to 8m/hr every round 🥴). Total of 1.1 mile.
    I am already missing our great coaches and workout friends! Keep it up everyone….WE CAN DO THIS 💪!!!!

  11. Meg V

    Done! I forgot the timer but I wore a vest and had a mini heart attack when a shepherd almost jumped a fence while I was running!

  12. Betsy

    15:33 – run was probably more than 400m. Also, added a footwear transition to get in and out of lifters. Should have followed your advice to put heels on plates. Would have cut out about :20 for each shoe change 😩

  13. Kirsten

    Hey fit fam!!! Couple things!!

    1.) If you have a Map My Run account, we can add each other as friends on there to keep up the support while we’re working out from home.

    2.) Also, if you prefer tracking your running distance in meters, MMR allows you to change the units to meters in the settings.

    Nice job today everybody! I’m about to get my swiffer mop outside to get mine done in a little bit!

  14. Megan S
