Athlete Notes:
The first two workouts were a bit of a grind this week. Today is going to be more of a “sprint”.. but like one of those nasty 800 meter sprints (yeah.. that’s a sprint nowadays..). Push that first row at an aggressive pace, but one that you can get off and start jumping right away. You can be a little conservative, but not too much because that’ll make a big difference! For the double unders, you know the drill. Never plan to break, but if you do, take a breath and keep working! The 21-15-9 complex is something that we want to fight to do unbroken. You’ll be tired, your legs and lungs will be burning, but challenge yourself to hang on to the dumbbells and the toes to bar. The nice thing about triplets is that the stimulus changes just enough from movement to movement to where you can push to go unbroken, especially on descending reps! The round of 15 is going to hurt, so lean into it and show yourself how mentally strong you are! When you get back to the double unders and row it’s time to empty the gas tank. Just like we always talk about, we want to people struggling for those last few calories. If you’re finishing on a high cal/hr then you didn’t kick soon enough! Get after it and earn your rest tomorrow!
