Wednesday
Box Jumps
Pull-ups
Ball Slam
Summo-Deadlifts High Pull (SDHP)
All exercises are conducted in a tabata round (20 sec of exercise followed by 10 sec of rest, repeated a total of 8 times - total = 4 min of each exercise).
I recommend:
1)On the box jumps you pick a height between 20-24";
2) Same story on the pull-ups work the kip;
3) On the ball slams make sure you keep your head up, don't let it sink down and leave you staring at the floor, pick a point in front of you and focus. Also find a ball without a lot of bounce if possible, if not then do not let the ball bounce above your knees;
4) For the summo deadlifts you want to do them over the tail end of a bench/box so that you ensure you go down far enough....guys I rec 95#, ladies 55-65#
5) 1 min rest between each of the exercises is appropriate, but keep it a slim minute.
For record's sake keep track of your total reps throughout the whole workout and post correlating scores.
Any questions or comments let 'em rip, otherwise, enjoy and we'll see you on the other side.

CA: what weight is recommended for the ball slams?
I rec 15-20#. Also, make sure when you fully extend at the top at least a portion of your shoulders cover your ears (not physically, but when viewed from the side).
Wow. Truly an awesome workout, but an absolute grind. The tabata round format is great.
Box Jumps (~30") 11 + 10 + 9 + 9 + 9 + 9 + 9 + 8 = 74
Pull-ups (I'm really struggling on these; hard to get the kip going, particularly with my shoulders - and my low pain threshold; i.e. I am a wimp) 7 + 5 + 5 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 3 + 2 = 34
Ball slams (16-20 lb. ball; my home made med. ball broke halfway through, because I only duct taped half of it. Probably better to just duct tape a couple of layers around the ENTIRE ball) 9 + 7 + 7 + 8 + 9 + 9 + 8 + 5 = 62
SDHP (75#) 7 + 6 + 6 + 2 + 4 + 5 + 3 + 4 = 37
