“Havana”
As Many Reps as Possible in 25 minutes:
150 Double unders
50 Push ups
15 Power cleans (185/125)

-Goal is to complete at least 4 rounds. This workout gives us a great opportunity to practice pacing and managing our muscular fatigue. The push ups should be done in short quick sets, especially as the shoulder fatigue from the jump rope will significantly impact those.

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.
