STIMULUS and GOALS
How to Pace: STEADY into CHALLENGE! Control your urge early on to sprint, push yourself, and don’t get caught over-resting. Be Consistent with pacing early as you navigate through this beat down of a workout. Use the time between movements for your quick breaks, and aim to keep similar sets and times across rounds. That final round is where you can turn it loose. Sub 3 minute rounds would be the goal.
How it should Feel: GASSY! Always under tension, and those front squats are no joke. Be smooth and get risky in the final round.
WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
Double Unders: 1-2 sets is a great goal. Remember that a grip-intensive movement follows. Break it up sooner rather than later if toes to bar pose a threat.
Toes to Bar: 2-3 sets should be the realistic aim for most of us, and only go unbroken if this is your wheelhouse.
Front Squats: Unbroken should be the only option here (for most to all rounds)! Make sure you are ready and breathe through the motion. Relax the hands as much as possible to save the grip going back into the double unders.
Mobility and Maintenance: Choose 1-2 Thoracic Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 5-10 minutes with them. Choose 1-2 Upper Extremity Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 5-10 minutes with them. Choose 2-3 Lower Extremity Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 10-12 minutes with them.
Nutrition Preparation: Ensure that you have quality foods prepared in the appropriate quantities to fuel your efforts for the remainder of the week.
Mental Restoration: Different for everyone – could be quiet time, prayer or meditation or could be gathering with friends; the key is to engage in activities that make your life full and help you recharge your batteries.
