Athlete Notes:

Today we’ve got a classic open style workout headed your way. The 12 minute time domain is quite common, as are these three movements. This workout is going to be a great test of your current cardio state. But, don’t worry if you’re not in peak open form, remember, we’ve been base building for the last few months! Challenge yourself to keep moving at a strong pace throughout this whole workout. For most people that second set of wall balls and/or burpees will be the major separator, so stay checked in there and don’t let yourself drop the ball or your pace fall off too much! Smart and concise breaks (if needed) on the wall balls are going to be key. Remember, you should never “plan” to break the double unders. However, if you do, take one breath and get right back at them! Your shoulders will definitely be on fire but just keep chipping away! Use this workout as an opportunity to learn how you like to mentally break things down as you move through higher repetitions. Rather than looking it as 50 wall balls, try knocking out 5 sets of 10.. hang on for 10, then just get through the next 10, then the next 10, and before you know it you’ve knocked out 30 reps. Whatever works for you, we want to hear it! Strategy and mental fortitude are often just as important as fitness when it comes to open workouts!
