CrossFitters fear only one thing:

The WOD (Workout of the Day.) The enemy pales in comparison.
If they do not, it is not hard enough.

The WOD - FRI, 06MAR09


One round of"Breathing Ladders":

  • 1 rep to 15 reps to 1 rep

    Breathing ladders require a weight, movement and rep to breath ratio.
    Establish a rep to breath ratio, i.e. do one rep followed by one breath,
    then do two reps followed by two breaths, three reps followed by three
    breaths, etc. until you have gone up and back down the "ladder".
    Breathe as much as you want while working. Breathe only the specified number of "reps" while resting. The goal is to accomplish a high work volume executed at moderate-to-low intensity while maintaining control of your breathing.

    Liked this one a lot especially considering how easy it would be to implement at a unit PT session. My wife mentioned doing this with burpees and I think I just threw up thinking about it. Gonna have to try it now.

    Good on ya for the creativity Brooky. Bottom line. . .figure out a way to do the WOD!

    Agree completely about this WOD translating to unit PT. A push up sit up air squat combo might not be bad either.
