Warm-Up | Performance

One set of:
Assault Bike x 3 minutes

Followed by…

Two sets of:
Walking Lunge x 20 steps
Side Plank x 20 seconds per side
Bottom Squat Hold w/Kettlebell x 20 seconds
Tempo Goblet Squat x 3 reps @ 30X1 tempo

Then…

A.
Take 20 minutes to build to today’s 3-RM Tempo Front Squat @ 42X1

As you build to this weight, perform singles or doubles at this tempo, then when you reach a weight you think would challenge you for 3 reps, attempt it. Show control in the 4-second descent, pause for 2-seconds in the bottom position and explode straight up – no bounce out of the bottom.

New to the program and wondering what “@ 42X1” means? Please read “What Does @ 30X0 Mean? Why I Like Tempo Training.”

B.
“Nitrous”
For time:
1000 Meter Row
50 Thrusters (95/65 lbs)

Compare your results to April 18, 2023. This is a re-test of an Invictus benchmark workout…hit it hard!
