TARGET SCORE
Intended Workout RPE: 8 – 80% – moderate/high intensity
Target Time: sub 16 minutes
Time Cap: 20 minutes

STIMULUS and GOALS
How to Pace: STEADY into GRIND! Ascending workouts are tough, and this partner style is no exception. Start off on the safe side with the pacing on the bike and dumbbells to prepare physically and mentally down the road. AIm for consistency on the bike with a near non-stop effort through the Devil’s Press.

How it should Feel: MUSCULAR ENDURANCE and CARDIO! There is no need to go crazy on the devil press for the first few rounds, as the bike will take some time. Stay moving and enjoy it when you get a break because the script will flip on where your rest is as it goes on.

WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
Dumbbell Devil Press: The weight should be moderate, and there should be no hesitation from rep to rep. Keep your cadence smooth while focusing on breathing at the bottom and top of the rep.

Bike: Get on and ramp up for the first few seconds, then settle into a moderate-push pace effort. The goal should be to keep the bike under 40 seconds.

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.

TARGET SCORE
Intended Workout RPE: 7-8 – 70-80% – moderate to moderate/high intensity
Target Time each set: sub 5 minutes
Time Cap each set: 6 minutes

STIMULUS and GOALS
How to Pace: STEADY! Establish a pace in Round 1 of Set 1 that can be maintained across all rounds. Both scores (1 for each 3-round section) should be similar in time or slightly faster for the second set of 3-rounds. Be sure to utilize the time between stations to shake out the arms in preparation for pull-ups and wall walks.

How it should Feel: MUSCULAR ENDURANCE! Transitions are important for maintaining a pace or getting faster through the second set. Reps are small enough that unbroken/non-stop should be the goal.

WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
Wall Balls: It’s heavier, but the goal should still be unbroken. If Two is realistic and keeps moving, then so be it; just keep the rest short.

Strict Pull Up: Unbroken would be great, but your arms might be fried. Do 2-3 quick sets, and maybe think about alternating your grip (chin-up/pull-up) each set.

Wall Walk: Touch and go at the bottom without hesitation. Try to keep these under 25 seconds.

Mobility and Maintenance: Choose 1-2 Thoracic Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 5-10 minutes with them.

Intended Workout RPE: 8.5 – 85% – high intensity
SCORING = 4 sets you will enter times for total.
Target Time each set: sub 3 minutes
Time Cap each set: 4 minutes

STIMULUS and GOALS
How to Pace: CHALLENGE! Three mono-structual couplets that will light the lungs up. We should start off with a moderate-high push pace effort, and as the volume decreases, the intensity should steadily rise. Be aggressive on the transitions and focus on keeping your breathing under control. Try to keep the round times consistent until the final third round.

How it should Feel: GASSY! We can not stress enough how important it is to get your heart rate under control during the rest and be ready to roll when the time hits. Transitions are going to be where this workout is won and lost, so don’t waste time getting right to work.

WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
Row: Start the first set at a moderate effort (75%), and by the final workout, we should be near a sprint pace. Breathe through the motion with a strong/aggressive lower body drive.

Bike Erg: As with the rower, be steady off the start and then start to ramp it up on the final two workouts. Stand up for more power and settle into your pace after a few seconds.

TARGET SCORE
Intended Workout RPE: 7 – 70% – moderate intensity
Target Time: sub 10 minutes
Time Cap: 13 minutes

STIMULUS and GOALS
How to Pace: GRIND! Pacing should be moderate (70-75%). Upper and lower body wrecker today, where your shoulder/leg endurance will be put to the test. Strategic and purposeful pacing/sets will be the key to surviving. The weight and reps will limit intensity up some today which is fine. Complete the work with quality movement and pushing through muscular fatigue.

How it should feel: MUSCULAR ENDURANCE! Reps descend, but it’s a constant front rack position. Know when it’s time to break, or you might be stuck standing there for a while.

WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
Double Dumbbell Front Rack Walking Lunge: The weight is moderately heavy but still doable for unbroken 25-foot lengths. Find that sweet spot on the shoulders that allows you to breathe and remain upright while focusing on staying steady. If you don’t have access to 25ft, you can complete 8 lunges in place!

Strict Press: The weight may seem light, but let me assure you that it adds up quickly. We recommend breaking this into fast sets of 5-10 reps. Trying to push to failure is never a good idea on strict movements, so be smart and play the long game.

TARGET SCORE
Intended Workout RPE: 8.5 – 85% – high intensity
Target Time each set: 5-6 minutes
Time Cap each set: 7 minutes

STIMULUS and GOALS
How to Pace: PAIN CAVE! 3 grueling sets where you have to keep your foot on the pedal and hold on. There is no real reason to stop other than to breathe. Come out with a moderate/fast push pace effort (80-85%) while aiming to replicate pacing across movements and sets. The 3rd time through should be your fastest but don’t sell out early. Kick it up on that set of 12s then empty the tank on that final round of 9.

How it should Feel: LACTIC ACID PARTY! During the break, it’s all about controlling your heart rate. Be methodical, stand there, and look at your equipment.

WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
Bike / Row / Run: Moderate-high intensity here (80-85%) while avoiding coming out too hot. Be aggressive when getting on and off the erg, but don’t blow your lungs up so you can not get to work on the barbell. Slow down the final 2-3 calories every time before transitioning. Sub 50 seconds is a great goal for each opening set of calories.

Hang Power Snatch: The weight is light (under 60% of 1RM power snatch), and all reps can be completed unbroken. If you need to break, keep it short and focus on relaxing your grip at the top of each rep.

Bar Facing Burpees: Smooth and steady here while keeping your heart rate under control. The only time we should see that pace increase is the final set of 9.

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.

STIMULUS and GOALS
How to Pace: STEADY! Three quick triplets that start with heavy lifting, transition into gymnastics, and then give us a taste of both with the final. Pacing on all three should be aggressive while mirroring round times across. Try to keep stations as close to non-stop/unbroken as possible while using the between movements as rest.

How it should Feel: MUSCULAR ENDURANCE and CARDIO! Every single body part is going to be hit today. Control your breathing and take your foot off the gas slightly to survive.

Target Time: sub 23 minutes (Total time including rest)
Time Cap: 24 minutes (including rest)

STIMULUS and GOALS
How to Pace: STEADY! These are moderately aggressive chippers, where the movements stay the same, but the rest and reps decrease. Coming out with a smooth and consistent pace with calculated breaks early on will allow you to ramp up the intensity as the sets go on.

How it should Feel: GASSY into CARDIO! Each one starts with a good primer for your heart rate and keeps it elevated through a nasty grind of movements.

WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
Row: Pacing should stay the same through each set. Think moderate-steady effort (75-80%) with heavy emphasis on controlling your breathing. No needs to knock yourself out early here. Play it smart and just keep moving.

Lunges / Sled Push: Distance stays the same and weight so you will know what you are in for after the first set. Just stay moving and find a hold that doesn’t over exhaust your shoulders. Try to minimize the amount of rest stops taken. Weight is moderate and should allow for a near non-stop effort.

Wall Walk: Touch and go what you can. Once you feel the burn sink in, adjust to quick shoulder rollouts at the bottom of each rep.

STIMULUS and GOALS
How to Pace: CHALLENGE! It’s cardio day, and that means we will be in it for the long haul. Sets are short with a 3:00 amrap that starts with a buy-in where intensity should be up with a push pace effort. The goal should be to finish the first station in 1:45 or less without emptying the tank. Find that pacing early that allows for a sustainable attempt through each machine.

How it should Feel: GASSY! There’s no way to put it, but other than that, it will take your breath away.

WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
Erg: Focus on utilizing the total body and breathing through the motion. Pacing should be the same whether you start or finish on the ski. 85% effort while ensuring that the final 2-3 calories are slowed before transitioning when it’s the start.

STIMULUS and GOALS
How to Pace: PAIN CAVE!! We all saw what the workout did to many of the athletes. Learn from their mistakes and be smart on the first workout. Pacing should be moderately aggressive on both, with calculated breaks to avoid blowing up.

How it should Feel: PAIN!! The push/pull combo is a classic arm wrecker; the heavy yoke each workout is a sneaky heart attack thrown in the mix.

WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
Thruster: First weight should be unbroken, or 2 sets at most! Just suck it up and make it happen while the second weight we highly recommend breaking into 2 sets. Even if you can go unbroken you have to play it smart and know that it’s only going to get worse.

Kipping Chest to Bar: Unbroken is possible for some, however, if you know your grip or fatigue is prone to burning out then break it into quick manageable sets.

Farmers Carry: Unbroken! Take a deep breath and rock these two carries out.

Bar Muscle Ups: Plan to break more than you think. After all the pushing and pulling prior it’s better to play it safe, than push to failure out of the gate. If you plan to perform smaller sets than be aggressive on your rest.

Mobility and Maintenance: Choose 1-2 Thoracic Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 5-10 minutes with them.

WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
Double Unders: 1-3 sets should be the goal. Take a deep breath before you start each set, and ensure that the rope gets laid down neatly after you are done.

GHD Sit Up: This is the area where you should focus on settling your heart rate and relaxing your shoulders. Be aggressive with your legs and hips every rep.
