Athlete Notes:
Consistent movement is going to be key in today’s workout. Don’t come out of the gates too hot and burnout around the 5 minute mark. The snatches should be all singles unless this is 60-65% of your 1RM. The front and back end sets of lateral burpees over the erg should be done at a consistent pace – meaning hit the ground as soon as you hop over, use the one step technique to get up out of the burpee, and hop over the bar. For the chest to bar pull-ups, most of should feel comfortable hitting these in 1-2 sets, but if you have to do any more than that make sure you’re not resting on the ground too long. This is a movement that can be done in 15 seconds or 60 if you’re slow about resting. The final piece of the puzzle is going to be the row. Males should look to hold around 1250-1400 on this while females should aim for 900-1100. Now, when the final 3 minutes of the workout rolls around, all of this goes out the window and it’s time to send it. Hang on and grip and rip! How much have you saved in the tank to sprint to the finish?
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.
