Athlete Training Notes:
A little cardio, a little leg endurance, a good amount of gymnastics… and you have to move fast. What’s not to love? This workout is all about shutting that brain off, moving with speed and intention, going unbroken on the barbell, and then maxing out those gymnastics sets as best you can. The 60 second rest and change in stimulus each set should be enough to keep you moving at a high pace. Your goal should be about 40-50 seconds on the 200 meter run, then be done with the thrusters by about 1:15 on the clock – squat cleans may be around 1:20-1:25 because they’re naturally slower – and then try to get at least 30-45 seconds to max out those gymnastics sets. Use the 60 second rest to shake your arms out and get ready to go hard again. Don’t waste any time in this workout, that 2 minutes is going to go by FAST.
