This reel is part of our workout briefing for Saturday’s End of Summer team event. We’ve got 6 WODs, teams of 4–5, 8 minutes per station and a bit of friendly competition before we head off for the important part — pizza, pints, coffee and a social afterwards. 🍕🍺☕ Whether you’re competing, spectating, or have just stumbled across this wondering what the hell we’re up to… here’s how this particular WOD works. 👇

🅵 WOD F — SYNCHRO

⏱️ 8 MIN AMRAP

➡️ 12 Duo Barbell Deadlifts @ 80kg
➡️ 10 Synchro Hand-Release Push-Ups
➡️ 8 Synchro Butterfly Crunches
➡️ REPEAT

RULES

TWO athletes work together.

🏋️ DUO DEADLIFT

• ONE 80kg barbell.
• TWO athletes lifting the same bar simultaneously.
• Both reach full hip + knee extension together.
• Both ends return to the floor.
• Bar stays under control.
• NO bouncing.
• Complete all 12 before progressing.

💪 HR PUSH-UPS

• Chest to floor.
• CLEAR hand release.
• Return to top.
• Both athletes working in synchro.

🦋 BUTTERFLY CRUNCHES

• Full required range.
• Both athletes complete each rep in synchro.

After completing the full round, the same pair can continue OR another pair can tag in.

Teams decide their own pairings/rotation.

SCORE = TOTAL VALID SYNCHRONISED REPS

12 + 10 + 8 = 30 reps per complete round.

Partial rounds at the horn count.

And remember…

Two people eventually completing the same movement is not the definition of synchronised. 😂

Work together. 🛡️🔥

🅴 WOD E — BATON RELAY

⏱️ 8 MINUTES — MAX LENGTHS

🏃 START → HOTEL → START

RULES

• ONE runner at a time.
• Runner carries the team baton(7.5kg DB).
• Run to the designated hotel turnaround and return.
• Runner must reach/go around the designated marker.
• Baton must be handed directly to the next athlete in the changeover area.
• Next runner cannot leave before receiving it.
• NO throwing the baton.
• Teams choose their own running order.
• Nobody has to contribute equally.
• Same runner can go repeatedly if that’s your tactical masterplan.

Drop the baton?

YOU dropped it. YOU pick it up.

No additional penalty — the clock will punish you sufficiently.

SCORING

Start → Hotel = 1 length

Hotel → Start = 1 length

Full out-and-back = 2 lengths

SCORE = TOTAL COMPLETED LENGTHS

When the horn goes, only a completed length counts.

“Sure I was basically there…”

You either crossed the line or you didn’t. 😂

This one’s pure running.

Send it. 🏃💨

🅳 WOD D — ROW + FARMER CARRY

⏱️ 8 MINUTES TOTAL

PART 1

🚣 100 TEAM CALORIES

across 2 RowErgs

THEN…

PART 2

🚜 MAX DISTANCE FARMER CARRY

with whatever time you’ve got left.

Carry course = 20m lengths

👨 & 👩: 24kG KB

RULES

• Maximum TWO athletes rowing — one per machine.
• Both monitors start at 0 calories.
• Teams rotate rowers however they want.

And only completed 20m lengths count.

19.8m when the horn goes?

Congratulations on your 0 metres for that length. 😂

SCORE

Ski 1 metres
➕ Ski 2 metres

Simple.

Until you’re six minutes in and suddenly nobody can remember what a squat looks like. 😂

The sled doesn’t score.

It simply earns you the opportunity to score on the KBs.

STRATEGY MATTERS. 🧠

Use your team wisely.

TRYKA Weekend ✅

What a weekend for the VKNG Horde.

We had coaches taking on their first event, first-timers stepping onto the competition floor, podium finishes, PBs, and countless moments where people realised they’re capable of far more than they thought.

But as always, the best part wasn’t the medals or the times.

It was the encouragement, the laughs, the support, and seeing a community genuinely celebrating each other’s successes.

On to the next one. 🛡️🔥
