Athlete Training Notes:
We’ve got another partner option coming up today. Luckily this one easily translates to the same individual option so if you don’t have a partner, don’t worry you’re doing the same workout your goal is to just get more than half the calories of teams that may have pairs. We’re looking to see what pace you can sustain on the machine while being able to finish DT in under 45-50 seconds. As always it’s probably smart to hit 11 deadlifts, 1 deadlift + 6-8 hang cleans, 1-3 hang cleans + 6 shoulder to overhead. But, don’t let that bar sit on the ground too much. If you don’t make it then that round of calories doesn’t count for you. Where is that borderline redline pace on the machine to where you can finish DT? We’re thinking somewhere between 18-22 calories for guys and 12-16 calories for ladies. Some will be a little more and some will be a little less but you’re going to have to settle into a pace then determine afterwards if it was too much, too little, or just right.
