Warmup with joint mobility, foam roller, and dynamic movement.  Rack 'em up.  Old school back squat with a box jump chaser, 1 legged dead lifts, and a little foot work.  Simple strength and conditioning day.  If you don't have access to a squat rack, you can use dumbells, kettlebells, or body weight (just increase the reps a bit).  You can also roll out after each round to continue to break up fascia in your legs.  This will increase blood flow and help muscle tissue to recuperate.

5 sets

5 back squats (increase work load each work set after warmup set)
5 L/R one legged dead lifts
5 box jumps
agility ladder
50 jump rope skips

Cool down, have a nice day.. El Rey always..

Warmup with joint mobility, foam roller, and dynamic movement.  Today we are going to hit a body weight blast.  An AMRAP session.  Focus on quality reps, not speed.  It is going to be short reps and just a few exercises, but we'll hit the whole body and get some quality mental and physical conditioning.  Try not to be a clock watcher... I know that its hard sometimes.. but that's when we have to dig inside and just say, "It's just 20 minutes.. I can do anything for 20 minutes.."  Be focused and get after it!!

20 minutes AMRAP

10 BB Clean and Front Squat 
10 Sledge Smash
10 Spin / Arm Throw Combo
5 BB Burpees
1 Ladder Sprint

Cool down, have a nice day.. El Rey always..

Warm up with joint mobility, dynamic movement, and foam roller.  Today is very simple.  Right out of the USMC PT book.  All you need is a little time, and a pull up bar.  This is a pretty difficult challenge.  It might not seem like much at first, but 4 sets in you will start to wonder.  Of course, you will forge ahead until the work is completed.  Warm up those shoulders, lats, and legs..

20 pull ups
40 push ups
60 squats 

OR 

10 sets of :
