Athlete Notes:
Continuing with our olympic lifting and “successory” work theme for Tuesday’s we’ve got another one coming today. As we’ve mentioned the last few weeks, please follow the prescribed percentages, reps, and tempos to the best of your ability! We are still in our foundation building phase so why not focus on getting really, really, strong! Side note… if you’re not keen on accessory work, and haven’t PR’ed a lift in awhile, maybe you should change that mindset 🙂

Optional Additional Work Sessions
*Please choose to perform only those sessions that are most focused on your weaknesses, and only perform as much of the additional work as you can recover from successfully before your next training session.

Engine Accessory Option
Complete rounds of 21,15 and 9 reps for time of:
21 Calorie Assault Bike
9 Burpee Box Over (46/42″)
15 Calorie Assault Bike
7 Burpee Box Over

5 Burpee Box Over

Rest 3 Minutes and then. . .

For time:
45 Calorie Assault Bike

Rest 10 minutes then REPEAT

Aerobic/Gymnastics Skills Option
Three sets for times of:
5 Legless Rope Climbs
40/30 calorie Row or Ski-Erg
30 Strict Handstand Push-Up
40/30 calorie Row or Ski-Erg

Don’t be scared to make these hurt a little. Force yourself to go straight from the Assault Bike to Double unders and Double Unders to Pull-Ups. Lets see how hard you can push in a fatigued state and don’t worry we expect a slight drop off 🙂
