Athlete Notes:
Today is a three part workout where we’re going to distract your mind, elevate your heart rate, and see if you can lift heavy under fatigue. We think that most of you might actually lift better with this format than a traditional olympic lifting format. After that you’ll hit a quick burner that’s going to really test your grip strength and endurance. Singles on the cleans might be the strategy if it helps you hang on to the toes to bar, but if you take too long you won’t have any time, so there’s a tradeoff. Pick what you think will work best for your abilities and then let us know in the comments what you chose to do. At the end of that you’re moving straight into the final piece of the day. You’ll be plenty fatigued at this point and coming straight from the toes to bar so we actually expect that second row to be slightly faster than the first. Use the first few hundred meters to find your pace and rhythm, then rip it for a bit, and then ease off the throttle so you can grab the front squats right away. After those it’s time to send it and finish strong.
