Athlete Notes:
This one is going to be a test of your willingness to grind. The high volume GHD sit ups right before the wall balls are going to tax your midline. How well can you hang on to the ball? In testing we had athletes complete this unbroken, so that’s the goal. That said, if you know that you’re going to struggle with that 30/20lb wall ball, then consider creating a gameplan to keep yourself moving beforehand. This is a great workout to practice mental checkpoints to keep yourself moving. Work on quick GHD sit-ups to reduce time under tension, hang on to that ball, and stay consistent on the bike!
