Athlete Notes:
Today we’ve got a classic open style workout headed your way. The 7 minute time domain is pretty regularly seen, as is ascending rep schemes in a couplet. This workout is going to get real at around the 9 or 11 rep range. We would advise for most of you to do quick singles. Hanging on for touch and go will likely blow your back up and really be a detriment to the burpees. But, the singles need to be go, drop, hands on, go again… not the step away and breathe, the weight is too light for that. The burpees need to be a consistent pace that you can maintain. Some of you may elect to do the jump back, jump up, jump over strategy, but we find that will elevate the heart rate quite a bit. For most of you, the best option is the jump back, step up out of the burpee, jump onto the box, twist, step down. Whatever remains consistent for you is what will work best!
