CFWS @ HOME Wednesday 25th August, 2021
For our mid-week session, we get to play with some cards to determine the outcome of our workout. I will be briefing the workout at 7 am, 10 am and 5 pm again but at the 10 am briefing I will be hanging around and will be the dealer for those wanting to get in and do the workout at that time.
Just a reminder that where practicable, we are still loaning gear out this week.
Please do reach out if you need anything Crew.

WOD Design and Logistics
Everyone, Start a 20-minute clock and immediately pull a random card from the deck. Perform the number of reps of the corresponding movement for that card. For example, if you draw 7 of Spades, perform 7 Front Rack Lunges. Draw another card and perform the corresponding movements as many rounds as possible in 30 minutes.

Scoring
The score is the total number of rounds/reps completed before the 20-minute clock expires.
If you are counting rounds, 1 round is each card that you draw and complete the movement assigned to that card.
If you are counting reps, it is the total number of reps that you complete in 20-minutes.
WOD Goal/Intent
Everyone: The goal for everyone is to accumulate as many rounds/reps as you can and have a bit of fun with the workout. Maybe your kids/significant other/flatmate can draw the cards for you so that you can keep a constant pace going.
Scaling
Weighted Movements: A Kettlebell or Dumbbell here will work fine, reduce the load if needed. Different weights can be used for each of the movements if needed.
Push-ups: We can scale the range of motion here by elevating our hands. Using negatives to get to the ground in a good push-up shape and coming back up and resetting at the top will also work well for this workout.
Cossack Squats: Ideally we want to work through these, they do require a good level of mobility and mid-line control, so if we find them a challenge, chances are we should be practising them (and the mobility we need too) to get better at them. However, if you do need to scale, normal air squats are fine.
