Athlete Notes:
The Assault Bike + Thruster workout will be a burner. This is a good workout to test your limits. Push hard on the movements and transition quickly to stop the clock and start your rest period. Once the clock reaches 10:00, we move to higher complexity and lower intensity with the gymnastics elements. The most difficult part is going to be the strict handstand push ups for most people due to all the pressing in the thrusters beforehand. Consider a strategy of small sets and short rest. It could feel frustrating at first to perform small sets, but we need to leave a little in the tank for the second set of strict handstand push ups. As a bonus, try to practice your handstand push ups in the new box size that CrossFit has come out with for the quarterfinal events.
