Workout of the Day

Hero workout of your choice.

Review the list of heroes and honor one with an all-out effort. Post choice of workout and results to comments.

Compare to 230911.

Scaling: Most Hero workouts are meant to be extremely grueling, arduous, and mentally challenging. Many contain a high volume of reps. Consider the movements you have already completed this week and make sure you pick a Hero workout that allows you to keep moving. Hero workouts that emphasize moderate rep ranges and time domains (10 to 30 reps per movement, approximately 15- to 20-minute range) are good choices.

Intermediate option:
Same as Rx’d.

Beginner option:

As a firefighter, I was hoping for a few more firefighter hero WOD options, especially related to 9/11. Decided to come up with my own to set a benchmark to measure up against next year.

- 11 reps of 9 of your weakest exercises. Choose a load that results in burnout at the end of the set.

- 3:43 of planks at the end, modified as needed to perform unbroken. Embrace the burn as you remember the firefighter lives that were given in the line of duty that day.

Hooyah brother! RIP


Didn't feel like a PR effort at the time and I didn't intend to - goal was to just keep moving, to not stop, just like he wouldn't have - but I'll take it. Decided to do this WOD again as I knew I could keep it under 30 minutes, and that doing Murph, Manion, Bert, other similar effort right now may reverse the good recovery work I've done.

Globo wod: many do "Murph" today so that's the first one we're looking at. If you have access to a park pullup bar or a bar in a Globo gym do this as Rxed. Can't kip on the bar, because you're using a door chin up bar? Partition into sets of 3/6/9, 33 rounds, with one round being 4/8/12. If you are using a conventional treadmill for the mile runs use a slight incline. Sub 120 calories assault or echo bike, or 2000m row for runs if subbing. Another option is "Chad" as a pretest for Veterans Day. (1000 stepups, on a 20" box with a 35/45lb ruck). If you're somewhere without a pullup bar available today do "Loredo" (6 rounds of 24 lunges, 24 pushups, 24 squats, run 400m).


Another choice is "Glen" (SEAL Glen Doherty, State department security, 9/11/2012, Bengazi) For time: "Grace" [30 clean and jerks 95/135], 1 mile run, 10 rope climbs; 15ft rope, run 1 mile, 100 burpees. Dumbbell sub 35/50lb clean and jerks, sub 3 to 1 towel pullups or L-sit pullups per rope climb. Mile runs subs same as Murph.



Now if you're someone who is picking "DT" today because you love the barbell do either heavy (205/145lbs) or double DT today. Scale to regular DT if you're max clean and jerk is sub 225/155. Dumbbell DT sub is 40/60lb dumbbells.
