Split Jerk 1-1-1-1-1-1-1 reps

CFOZ version

Two minutes of cardio (your choice), samson stretch, CFWU x 3 (x 2 if in first two weeks of WODs)

If you have access to a weights, do this WOD as Rx. Otherwise, use a pvc pipe or broomstick to practice your form. This is not done for time. Each rep is to be done with increasing weight. You are looking for your one rep max effort (1RM). If you feel your form is compromised do not increase the weight. Take as long as needed to recover between sets.

Post loads to comments.

Squat Thrusts: From standing, you will place your hands on the ground and jump or step your feet back to a plank hold(top of a push-up,) then jump or step your feet back up to your hands and jump up in the air with an overhead clap.  

Push-up/Squat combo: Standing near a wall or elevated surface, do a push-up followed by a squat.  This is a good one to sub during pregnancy or if you have sever back issues.

Remember to use perfect form on the deadlift even though you are using no weight. For the box jump, use a height that you feel you can safely jump, but which still challenges you.
