General Training Notes:
A little open-style couplet is headed your way today, but with a twist. You’re going to get a little rest midway through and then pick up where you left off on the higher sets. The goal is to stay unbroken on both movements through the round or 9 or 12, then from there it’s time to get gritty and see if you can hang on to the barbell. Be smooth on your transitions, drop the bar, take a breath, then try to go unbroken on those double unders. Get back to the thrusters and just force yourself to pick the bar up right away. Don’t stare at the bar too much. Even if that means you’re breaking at the midway point of the set, just grab it and get going. You might surprise yourself and go further than you think. Use that 3 minute rest to plan your strategy for the second set where you’ll be at the higher rep sets. Plan for a lot of thrusters, but what better way to build some strength and endurance?
