[tabby title=”Low Impact Program – LIP”]

A.

As Many Rounds and Reps as possible in 3 minutes:
3 Bent-Over Barbell Rows
6 Push-Ups
9 Air Squats

## GENERAL
* CrossFit Benchmark Workout
* Designed to be fast-paced three minute intervals
* The quick change in movements and muscle groups allows athletes to bring more intensity
* Score is total rounds + reps across the five rounds
* Looking to get at least 3+ rounds with each interval

## POWER CLEANS
* Choose a barbell weight you can cycle for 10-15 reps when fresh
* If you’re on the fence, go lighter so you can touch-and-go these

## PUSH-UPS
* Push-ups are ideally completed unbroken, with no more than one break per set
* Modifying the number of variation can help you get more out of each round

# WOD BRIEF + GROUP WARMUP (0:00 – 12:00)
## Stretch – Squat – Barbell
1 Minute Active Spidermans
45 Seconds Air Squats
30 Seconds Stiff Legged Deadlifts

1 Minute Push-up to Down Dog
45 Seconds Straight Leg Reach to Air Squat
30 Seconds Elbow Rotations

1 Minute Straight Legged Inchworms
45 Seconds Jumping Air Squats
30 Seconds Hang Power Cleans

# MOBILITY (12:00 – 15:00)
## Front Rack Stretch: 45 Seconds
Laying on your chest, place our elbows out in front, arms bent at 90 degrees. The goal is to close the gap between the armpits and the floor, which will stretch the lats, shoulders, and triceps.

## Chest Stretch: 45 Seconds
Athletes will lay on their chest with arms out in a “T”. Bring the left arm next to the left shoulder and swing the left leg over the right leg, feeling a stretch in the right pec. Actively move back and forth between each side for the 45 seconds.

## Wrist Stretch: 30 Seconds Each Direction
From hands and knees position, place palms on the ground with fingertips facing towards you. With elbows locked, actively rock back and forth through range of motion to feel the stretch in the wrist. Face fingertips away for the final 30 seconds.

# TEACHING (15:00 – 25:00)
## AIR SQUATS
### Screw the Feet
Although the air squat is the easiest and simplest of the three movements today, we don’t want to turn off for these 9 reps. Athletes can think about screwing their feet into the floor. This recruits more muscle and keeps the knees tracking in the direction we want them to.

### Movement Prep
5 Slow Pausing Air Squats
5 Air Squats

## PUSH-UPS
### Screw the Hands
The push-up is essentially a hand squat. We can think about now screwing the hands into the floor instead of the feet here. It essentially accomplishes the same thing as the squat. The torque from screwing the hands into he floor enables athletes to get more muscle of the upper body involved in the press off the floor and allows the elbows to track at 45 degrees off the body. This “screwing” action happens on both the way down and the way up.

### Movement Prep
15 Second Push-up Plank Hold (Screwing the Hands)
3 Push-ups

### Movement Substitutions
Reduce Reps
Push-ups to Box or Bench
Knee Push-ups

## POWER CLEANS
### Fast Elbows
Our sole focus on the power clean is being lightning fast with the elbows. One way we can get our elbows in front of the bar quicker is to loosen the grip after we “jump”. If we have a death-grip on the barbell, the elbows will have a hard time getting around fast enough. If we jump hard and then “let go” of the barbell, the elbows can fly up quickly to get the bar on the shoulders. This hits the standard of elbows in front of the bar, saves the grip and collar bones, and makes for better looking reps. We'll use the muscle clean to emphasize a hard jump and fast elbows.

## PUSH-UPS
* Shoot for 1-2 quick sets
* These reps can add up over the 15 minutes of work
* If on the fence, go with 3-3 from the beginning

## POWER CLEANS
* Try to string these together, ideally unbroken
* Slow down the air squats to go bigger here

## TOES TO BAR
### Arch
The hollow position gets a ton of attention because it is the main action of the movement. It’s when we bring the toes to the bar. Let’s make our goal today to nail the arch position of the kip swing. If we can get to this position with good tension, it makes the toes to bar significantly easier. We’ll start out by establishing the arch position on the floor before getting up to the bar.

### Movement Prep
20 Second Arch Position Hold on Floor
10 Seconds Arch Position Hold on Bar
5 Kip Swings
5 Knees to Chest
3-5 Toes to Bar

### Movement Substitutions
Reduce Reps
Feet as High as Possible
Knees to Chest

## BURPEES
### Roll vs. Snap
There are couple different ways to do the burpee based on how fast we want to go. The first one is rolling down. Athletes essentially roll down one vertebrae at a time to control their speed. This may be the best option for the high rep sets of burpees. The second option would be to snap down. Here, athletes remain tight and rigid as they get on and off the floor. This method is recommended for the smaller sets of burpees when athletes are trying to move quickly.

### Movement Prep
3 Spidermans Each Leg
3 Frog Hops
3 Rolling Burpees
3 Snapping Burpees

## RUN
### Wall Drill
We’ll move through a quick running drill that can help athletes improve their form. With a wall to their back, we’ll have athletes jog in place, pulling their heel right under the hips. If they kick their feet back, they’ll make contact with the wall. Kicking back during the run likely means that we’ll have to overcompensate by also swinging the leg forward and over-striding. This trains us to keep the feet under the body and improves efficiency.

### Movement Prep
20 Second Jog in Place with Back to Wall
100 Meter Run

# REHEARSAL (25:00 – 30:00)
## 1 Round
100 Meter Run
5 Toes to Bar
5 Burpees

# STRATEGY + WOD (30:00 – 60:00)
## GENERAL
* Very front half heavy
* 21-18-15: 54 Reps
* 12-9-6-3: 30 Reps
* Runs not important at the beginning, more important at the end
* Speed on burpees and runs can increase as reps decrease

## TOES TO BAR
* Below are some break up ideas for toes to bar
* Start conservative and get more aggressive as the workout is closer to completion

**Set of 21**
6-5-4-3-2-1 or 7-7-7

**Set of 18**
6-5-4-3

**Set of 15 **
