Going to do something we haven't done in a long time.  

And you have two options.  Whether it is raining when you have time to train will be the deciding factor for most.  

If it isn't raining, mark off 10 meters/yards.  You're going to do "Death by 10 meters."  In the first minute, you will run/jog/walk 10 meters.  In minute two, you will run/jog/walk 20 meters.  And so and so forth.  At some point you will be going pretty much as hard as you can to get 10 meter shuttles done.  I think the last time we did this, Geoffrey White, Landon Trusty and myself got 19 before we ran out of time.  

You are going to want to warm up just like you would for any running.  Yes, some of you don't warm up to run.  I don't suggest that here as at some point you'll be sprinting.  You're also going to want to go through the motions of the quick stops and change of directions before starting if you've not done shuttle sprints before.

If weather does not permit you running.  You will do "Death by 10 Meters" on Wedneday and today, you will instead do "Death by Burpees."  Yes, it operates in the same manner.  1 burpee in the first minute.  2 in the 2nd minute, 3 in the third and so on and so forth until you can't complete the required number in the minute.

Warmup:  Get your blood flowing.  2 rounds -- Jumping jacks :30 - single unders for a minute - 5 walking lunges each leg (forward and backwards) - 8 to 10 shoulder/arm rotations (big circles and small circles forward and backwards) - hand stand hold for :20 against the wall  if able.
---
WOD: 1 Min max reps each station x 3 rounds
- Burpees
- Air squats
- Alt KB or DB snatch/clean & press/ hand 2 hand kbs*
- Box jumps/ step ups**
- Pike push ups/ push ups
- DU's/singles/ jumping jacks
- Rest 1 min
----
*If you have a KB or DB to use. If not, you have 5 stations instead of 6.
** If you have something to jump up to or step up to that is sturdy and suited for this.  If not, tuck jumps.  
---
This operates just like Fight Gone Bad.  Once you have gone through the stations, you then rest for one minute before starting over.  So it's either 18 minutes or 15 minutes of work depending upon what you're working with at home.

Pike Pushups are very challenging.  Make sure you watch the variations in the video.  Many of you have done them from a box as he shows in the last variation.

Warmup: Accumulate in any order:
10-30 Airsquats, slow and easy, sit in the bottom for a little while
10-30 Shoulder Pass throughs slow...use a pipe, broomstick, or towel
10-30 Scap Pushups at slow tempo, push the range of motion

----
Level 1, 2 & 3: On a 18 minute Clock, accumulate as many perfect
8 Count Bodybuilders as possible.  Every 3 minutes starting at 0:00, run around your house, or approximately 1 minute (:30 out and back). If you can't run, jump rope for 1 minute. If you don't have a jump rope, do high knees/run/jog in place for 45 seconds.
---
*Bodybuilders are not burpees.  Don't completely rush through them so much that you get sloppy.  You should be maintaining a plank and great pushup form like we've been practicing this week.  Remember, this is 18 minutes, go at a sustainable pace.

*If you have a barbell or KB, use it.  If not, get creative on the DL's.  You could use water jugs or a back pack that you've filled up with something to make it heavy.  And would lift that more like a KB deadlift.  
**Try to continuously move on the lunges.  It is going to burn but try to keep moving.
***Keep the bent hollow hold or hollow hold as tight as possible.  Break and rest when you need to during the minute to maintain good form.

---
Level 3: Accumulate
80 Burpees
100 Glute Bridges add wt as needed/if you have anything
20 Mountain Climbers 

---------------
*Break up any way you see fit.  The most difficult way would be straight through.  
**As with everything we're doing currently, focus on movement quality.  I'd much rather see you go slower/more breaks to be able to do much better movement quality than go fast.  You'll notice none of these versions/levels say "for time."  Again, movement quality over speed.
