Rx and Intermediate:
5 rounds for time of:
Max calorie row in 60-seconds
50-lb./35-lb.* Turkish get-ups
Each round complete a total of 40 reps (or calories).
E.g. If you row 25 calories complete 15 TGUs that round. If you row 30 calories complete 10 TGU’s that round.
The intermediate athlete can attempt this workout as written. Ensure the load for the Turkish get-ups allows for the working arm to remain straight and the dumbbell to remain in the frontal plane. If unable to consistently accomplish this, decrease the load. Strive to row at least 20 calories within the 60-second time domain each round.

Beginner:
5 rounds for time of:
Max calorie row in 60-seconds
25-lb./15-lb.* Turkish get-ups
Each round complete a total of 30 reps (or calories). E.g. If you row 15 calories complete 15 TGUs that round. If you row 20 calories complete 10 TGU’s that round.
The reps have been decreased so the beginner can maintain the intended time domain. Prior to starting this workout, watch the video titled “The Turkish Get-up with Jeff Martone” for detailed tips on technique and execution. Find a load that allows the arm to remain straight the entire time. If unable to achieve at least 10 calories in the 60-second time domain, decrease the required reps per round to 20.
*Suggested women’s weight is a guideline not a limit.
