London Summer 2019 Evolve Arena Workout - Off Piste

OFF-PISTE 

This was a workout at London Summer 2019 - Everyday Division.

Teamwork to get as much done as possible with quick transitions. 

TIME CAP - 8 minutes 

Each team will get a number of dumbbells and a Concept2 ski erg. 

The Workout: 

In your team, you must complete each of these stations in order but you can decide who does what and how many reps of each you do. Only the athlete/athletes working can be touching the kit so no passing the dumbbells to each other. Once you get to the ski erg you can pass the handles between athletes. 

  1. Pair Synchro DB goblet squat x 50 (single 22.5kg/15kg)
  2. Alternating DB lunge x 40 (pair of 17.5kg/12.5kg) - this is not synchro, only 1 athletes working at a time
  3. Pair Synchro Alternating DB snatch x 30 (single 17.5kg/12.5kg)
  4. Pair synchro burpee x 20
  5. Ski as a team for distance until time runs out. 

SCORE: Distance on ski (metres) or if the does not reach the ski we count how many reps are completed.
