The push press set up. Notice the weight is centered over her hips and through her heels, and her elbows are out if front of the bar. From this position, the bar should travel up in a straight line for optimum power and movement efficiency.
SWOD:
Push Press 1rm
Metcon:
3x 800m runs.
WOD Tips:
For the SWOD, start with an empty bar (or PVC) and do 5 or so reps. Then begin increasing the weight while decreasing the reps, attempting to find your 1rm push press.
For the metcon, run 800m as quickly as possible, rest the exact time it took to run, then repeat two more times for a total of three rounds. Record your times for all three 800m runs. If you're feeling a little sore and beat up from the last two days of training, take the runs as technique practice, or you can do 800m rows instead. Or come in and work the push press only and do some active recovery. Make the program work for you!
