Athlete Notes:
Today we’ve got some pulling headed your way. You will open up with a set of toes-to-bar and we’d like you to work on efficiency with this movement. That may mean doing 2 sets or going unbroken if you are a toes-to-bar ninga. Make sure you meet the movement standard by bringing your feet back far enough as I often see people shorting the swing which would result in a no rep. The ski erg/row is just a wrench thrown into the 40 toes-to-bar. If you go too hard here your lats will be completely blown out, but if you go too slow you’ll lose way too much time. Try to use as much of your bodyweight and legs as you can (depending the aparatus) so as to save your lats as much as possible. Hit the first chunk of calories at a strong pace and then try to cruise for the last 3-5 so as to freshen your arms up as much as possible. This goes for all 3 portions. When you’re on the double unders, your goal should be to go unbroken and only rest IF you trip. Have some fun and get a nice little pump before tomorrow’s rest day!
