Workout of the Day

Because this is a longer workout, we are going to have to get started very quickly, so the warm up will be abbreviated. If you can, please come a few minutes early to do any specific stretching/warm up drills that will get you ready for todays workout. 

A.
“12 Days of Forte”
1 Thruster (115 / 75) [155 / 105]
2 Handstand Push-Ups [strict]
3 Box Jumps Overs (24 / 20) [30 / 24]
4 Burpees
5 Pull-ups [ctb]
6 Hang Power Cleans (115 / 75) [155 / 105]
7 Deadlifts (115 / 75) [155 / 105]
8 Wall-Balls (20 / 14) [30 / 20]
9 Kettlebell Swings (53 / 35) [70/ 53]
10 Alternating Front Racked Lunges (115/ 75) [155 / 105]
11 Toes to Bar
12 Power Snatches (115 / 75) [squat snatches 155 / 105]

This’ll be a fun one, but be sure to scale appropriately, as it will get pretty gnarly… This is how it’ll go:
You’ll do 1 thruster, then 2 HSPU + 1 thruster, then 3 BJO + 2 HSPU + 1 thruster, then 4 burpees + 3 BJ + 2 HSPU + 1 Thruster, etc…
just like the 12 Days of Christmas song. Maybe the coaches will be kind enough to put that song on repeat as you push through it.

Have fun with it!

The Beaches and the Forte Team hopes everyone has a joyous and safe holiday. Eat, drink and be merry!
