Skill
12 Minutes Chest Facing Wall Handstand & Handstand Walk Practice.

If you can get into and maintain the handstand within these parameters, you may begin to try to walk away from the wall. As you walk away from the wall do not let your body fold. It is imperative that a hollow body position be maintained for this drill. Obviously, do not allow the desire to keep your nose on the wall end in injury—it’s not that serious.

RANDY: Randy Simmons, 51, a 27 year LAPD veteran and SWAT team member was killed February 6 in the line of duty. Our thoughts and prayers go out to Officer Simmons' wife and two children.

Men’s Rx- 75lbs

Men’s Scaled- 45lbs


Women’s Rx- 55lbs

Women’s Scaled- 30lbs

Movement Standards:

Randy begins from the standing position with a loaded barbell. You must either Power Snatch or Split Snatch each rep.

In the Power Snatch, the barbell travels directly from the ground to overhead in one fluid motion without stopping at the shoulders.

However, "Press outs" will be allowed. Each athlete must show control of the barbell overhead by standing all the way up before resetting one’s feet, in order for the movement to be considered a complete rep.

For the Burpees, at the bottom each athlete’s hips and chest must make contact with the ground. At the top, the athlete’s hands must touch above or behind their head and both feet must leave the ground simultaneously. All Burpees must be completely vertical and show full hip extension in order for it to be considered a rep.

From there, the athlete will move onto their Kettle Bell Swings.

For the Kettle Bell Swings, the athlete's arms must be fully extended and ears must be seen from their side profile. If an athlete cannot achieve full extension due to the lack off flexibility, then he or she must show their judge their range of motion before the workout begins. The Kettle Bell does not have to be vertical

Make no mistake, this workout will be a challenge, but we have added extra motivation for you to continue to push through barriers you once thought impossible. LuRong Living is proud to announce this week' Tribute WOD: Letendre. Your participation in this Tribute WOD honors Lt. Letendre and all those who have made the ultimate sacrifice in defending our freedom. When you tempted to stop, quit, or slow down, know that your temporary sacrifice honors the sacrifices that too many of our brothers and sisters have had to make to protect our freedom and way of life.
Lt. Brian Scott Letendre died May 3, 2006, while conducting combat operations against enemy forces in Al Anbar province, Iraq. He was assigned to the Marine Forces Reserve's Inspector and Instructor Staff, 1st Battalion, 25th Marine Regiment, 4th Marine Division, Plainville, Connecticut.



WOD Details: In honor of Lt Letendre and his 25th Marine Regiment, you will have 25 minutes to complete as many reps as possible of the following workout:

Men's Rx- 25 Calorie Row, 100 Double Unders, 80 Kettle Bell Swings at 53 lbs, 100 Air Squats, 60 Push Ups, 100 Double Unders, 40 AbMat Situps, 100 Walking Lunges, 20 Burpees
Men's Scaled- 25 Calorie Row, 100 Single Unders, 80 Kettle Bell Swings at 35 lbs, 100 Air Squats, 60 Push Ups from knees, 100 Single Unders, 40 AbMat Situps, 100 Walking Lunges, 20 Burpees
Women's Rx- 25 Calorie Row, 100 Double Unders, 80 Kettle Bell Swings at 35 lbs, 100 Air Squats, 60 Push Ups, 100 Double Unders, 40 AbMat Situps, 100 Walking Lunges, 20 Burpees
Women's Scaled-25 Calorie Row, 100 Single Unders, 80 Kettle Bell Swings at 25 lbs, 100 Air Squats, 60 Push Ups from knees, 100 Single Unders, 40 AbMat Situps, 100 Walking Lunges, 20 Burpees
Your Score is the total number of REPS you completed
A Complete Round = 625 reps
Partial Rounds = the number of reps you completed
Every Calorie on the Rower counts as one REP
If you end in the middle of a round then add the reps from the partial round to the reps of any rounds you completed to get your total score
For example: If you complete one round (625 reps) and in the next round you complete your 25 calorie row (25 reps) and 25 of double unders (25 reps) your total score would be 675 reps.


25 Calorie Row; starts from a standing position and off the rower. The athlete must step onto the rower and quickly start pulling. Both the athlete's damper setting and foot setting/straps can be set prior to starting workout. Each Calorie of the row counts as one rep (this is especially important for those athletes that make it to their second and third rounds). The athlete must stop rowing and return the handle to the resting position in order to get credit for any calories after the time has expired.
100 Double-Unders; athlete's must swing the rope around one's body in a single direction, while having the rope pass simultaneously under their feet twice. If they accidentally land on the rope while it's passing under one's feet, or if their feet stop it all together, it is considered a failed attempt. The rep must be repeated and done successfully. Each successful Double Under counts as a rep. Athletes are allowed to do as many "singles" as they like in between their Double Unders, however, only their Double-Unders will count as completed reps.
80 Kettle Bell Swings; each swing must demonstrate control at the top and clear the height of the athlete's head. Both knees and hips must be completely locked out in order for the rep to count.
100 Air Squats; Athlete's must begin from a full upright standing position. At the bottom of the squat, one's butt and hip crease must be just below parallel and or crease of the knee. From here, you must return to full extension of the hips and knees to complete each rep. The use of one's hands to push off your legs will not be permitted in the Rx category. Only the reps that go all the way down and return to full hip extension at the top can be counted for reps. This is important for the any final reps as time expires.
60 Push Ups; the movement starts with the athlete at the top of a plank position arms are straight and completely locked out. At the bottom of each rep, the athlete's chest must clearly touch the ground. At the top of the rep when the athlete has pressed out, the arms are clearly locked and one's body is back into the original plank. In order to be considered a rep, two things must occur.
One, the athlete's feet must remain on the ground throughout the entire movement. In no way, can one use their feet to "kick off" the mats in order to assist them with the push up.
Secondly, athletes are not allowed to "worm out" or lose Mid-Line Stabilization as they press out.
40 AbMat Situps; athletes are required to "butterfly" their feet; bottom of shoes are touching. Must start in upright position with arms out no further than 90 degrees. Must precede all the way back so that both shoulder blades make contact with the floor. Swinging of the arms is allowed so long as the hands do not break 90 degrees or go behind the head. At the top of the sit-up, the athlete is required to touch their toes NOT their heels for each rep to count.
100 Walking Lunges; Athlete's must start in a upright standing position, stepping forward with one foot until one's back knee makes contact with the floor. Then pushing off the back leg, to full extension of the hips and knees, before proceeding forward with the opposing leg. Each step counts as a rep i.e. (left foot is 1, right foot is 2, left foot is 3)... etc. Athletes are not allowed to use their hands to push-off their legs.
20 Burpees; at the bottom each athlete's hips and chest must make contact with the ground. At the top, the athlete's hands must touch above or behind their head and both feet must leave the ground simultaneously. All Burpees must be completely vertical and show full hip extension in order for it to be considered a rep.
25 Calorie Row; starts from a standing position and off the rower. The athlete must step onto the rower and quickly start pulling. Both the athlete's damper setting and foot setting/straps can be set prior to starting workout. Each Calorie of the row counts as one rep (this is especially important for those athletes that make it to their second and third rounds). The athlete must stop rowing and return the handle to the resting position in order to get credit for any calories after the time has expired.
100 Single Unders; athlete's must swing the rope around one's body in a single direction, while having the rope pass simultaneously under their feet once. If they accidentally land on the rope while it's passing under one's feet, or if their feet stop it all together, it is considered a failed attempt. The rep must be repeated and done successfully. Each successful Single Under counts as a rep.
80 Kettle Bell Swings; each swing must demonstrate control at the top and clear the height of the athlete's head. Both knees and hips must be completely locked out in order for the rep to count.
100 Air Squats; Athlete's must begin from a full upright standing position. At the bottom of the squat, one's butt and hip crease must be just below parallel and or crease of the knee. From here, you must return to full extension on the hips and knees to complete each rep. The use of one's hands to push off your legs will be permitted in the scaled category. Only the reps that go all the way down and return to full hip extension at the top can be counted for reps. This is important for the any final reps as time expires.
60 Push Ups from the knees; the movement starts with the athlete at the top of a plank position arms are straight and completely locked out. At the bottom of each rep, the athlete's chest must clearly touch the ground. At the top of the rep when the athlete has pressed out, the arms are clearly locked and one's body is back into the original plank for each rep to count.
40 AbMat Situps; athletes are required to "butterfly" their feet; bottom of shoes are touching. Must start in upright position with arms out no further than 90 degrees. Must precede all the way back so that both shoulder blades make contact with the floor. Swinging of the arms is allowed so long as the hands do not break 90 degrees or go behind the head. At the top of the sit-up, the athlete is required to touch their toes NOT their heels for each rep to count.
100 Walking Lunges; Athlete's must start in a upright standing position, stepping forward with one foot until one's back knee makes contact with the floor. Then pushing off the back leg, to full extension of the hips and knees, before proceeding forward with the opposing leg. Each step counts as a rep i.e. (left foot is 1, right foot is 2, left foot is 3)... etc. Athletes are allowed to use their hands to push-off their legs in the scaled division.
20 Burpees; at the bottom each athlete's hips and chest must make contact with the ground. At the top, the athlete's hands must touch above or behind their head and both feet must leave the ground simultaneously. All Burpees must be completely vertical and show full hip extension in order for it to be considered a rep.
In the family's statement, Letendre's parents, Milton and June Letendre, said "Several times throughout his life, Brian could have chosen the easier or more comfortable path, but he didn't," the statement read. "He . . . followed his heart to where he felt he could help make this world a better place."

Letendre trained at the Quantico Marine Base to become a military infantry officer. He was deployed to Okinawa, Japan; Guantanamo Bay, Cuba; and then to Kuwait in 2003. His son was born the day before he crossed into Iraq (March 19, 2003). He was with 1st Bn 2nd Marines in the battle for An Nasiriyah, Iraq where he earned the Navy and Marine Corps Commendation Medal with a Combat "V" for valor.

In 2006 Letendre volunteered for an 11-man "military transition" team that was to train Iraqi army recruits, who have been so relentlessly targeted by suicide bombers. Three weeks ago, the job took him to Tammin, in the Anbar province of Iraq -- the swath of desert west of Baghdad considered the heart of the Sunni Arab insurgent movement. Military officials did not specify where Letendre was in Anbar when the suicide bomber attacked. His survivors include his wife, Autumn, his 3-year-old son Dillon, his parents, and two brothers and those of us who were lucky to know him.

"For those who have fought for it, freedom has a taste the protected will never savor." -unknown

I know that Lt. Letendre would have never wanted a memorial workout named after him. He wasn't about being recognized or remembered. He wanted everyone to do their job to the best of their ability, and take pride in what they realize they can accomplish. So please, do this workout for every hero that has ever fallen in battle, those that were missing in action, and especially for those who weren't lucky enough to have a workout named after them. Real heroes are all around you. They are the old people behind the wheel on the freeway slowing you down. They are normal everyday looking people. Never underestimate anyone. Most importantly, don't underestimate yourself.

At the bottom of the squat, the hip and butt must be just below parallel and the crease of the knee. Once at the top, the athlete must stand all the way up to full extension so that one's knees and hips are completely open for each rep to count.
For the toes-to-bar, the athlete must start from a full hang; arms and hips straight and fully extended, to having both feet simultaneously touch the pull up bar. At the bottom of the hang position, the athlete's feet must come back behind the bar, not in front for each rep to count.
In the muscle-up, the athlete must start each rep from a hanging position, into a full lock out position above the hanging rings. False grips and kipping are allowed, but fixed rings or straps will not be permitted. In terms of the swing or kip, we will not allow one's feet to clear the height of the rings or any other variation that's not demonstrated in the video above. Also, all rings must be set 1 fist above the athlete's reach.
If an athlete is able to complete an entire round they will start over and continue through the WOD for a second round adding each REP to their total.

For the overhead squats, the athlete must demonstrate control by maintaining the bar overhead with arms/elbows completely locked out for the entire movement. At the bottom of the squat, the hip and butt must be just below parallel and the crease of the knee. Once at the top, the athlete must stand all the way up to full extension so the that one's knees and hips are completely open for each rep to count.

Must precede all the way back so that both shoulder blades make contact with the floor. Swinging of the arms will NOT be prohibited.

For the pull ups, you can choose from either Dead-hang, Butterfly, or Kipping Pull Ups. As long the athlete's arms are fully extended in the hang position and the chin clears the horizontal plane of the bar for each rep to count.
For the ring dips, the movement starts with the athletes arms completely locked out above the rings. The athlete will be required to go below parallel, ring to arm pit. The athlete must return back to full lock out position in order for the rep to count.
If an athlete is able to complete an entire round they will start over and continue through the WOD for a second round adding each REP to their total.

Women's Scaled- Max Pull Ups with 2 1/2 Resistance band (60-150lbs of resistance) in 6 UNBROKEN attempts with an 8 minute time cap




REST 10 MINUTES THE FIND ONE REP MAX ON FRONT SQUAT









Movement Standards - RXAthletes have 6 UNBROKEN attempts to complete as many reps as possible of Max Pull Ups, within the 8 minute time cap. The end of an attempt is defined by letting go of the bar. Each time you let go of the bar it counts as an attempt. You can choose from either: Dead-hangs, Butterfly, or Kipping Pull Ups.
As long the athlete's arms are fully extended in the hang position and the chin clears the horizontal plane of the bar, it's a good rep.
If for some reason an athlete starts without a band, but cannot complete the workout as RX'D. Then he/she can go to banded Pull Ups, however, now the workout is considered scaled. Choose wisely!

Movement Standards - ScaledAthletes must complete as many reps as possible of Pull Ups in 8 minutes. You can choose from either Banded Dead-hangs or Kipping Pull Ups.
As long the athlete's arms are fully extended in the hang position and the chin clears the horizontal plane of the bar, it's a good rep.
Athletes can use any resistance band as desired up to 2 1/2 inches. For scoring purposes, every second counts, so choose accordingly. If for some reason an athlete starts without a band, but cannot complete the workout as RX'D. Then he/she can go onto banded Pull Ups, but the workout is now considered Scaled.
