Athlete Notes:
Jackie drank a little too much coffee this morning! She’s so hyped up that not only is she doing the original workout but two more variations afterwards! We are again testing your ability to perform at a high intensity, recover in a short window, and repeat the effort, however, this is a lot of volume, so please be smart! If you are unable to perform any of these in less than 8 minutes, we would advise dropping the reps slightly in order to be sure that you are getting at least 4 minutes of rest and are able to hit the next portion with some intensity. On that note, here’s a little strategy. For the row, we would advise rowing something close to around your 2k pace.. you can row as fast as you want, but if you get off the rower and stare at the barbell for 30 seconds, did it make much sense? When you get to the thrusters, this is the “gut check” portion of this workout. The weight will get progressively heavier as the reps begin to decrease, but we want you to make sure you’re checked in here. It comes down to knowing yourself as an athlete. If going unbroken means the pull-ups turn into a mess, then it wasn’t worth it. Be smart about your sets but be diligent about keeping the bar moving! For the pull-up variations, this is purely skill based and under fatigue/with an elevated heart rate. After these you get to rest, so we want you to push here and see what you’re capable of as your body and grip starts to get more and more tired.
Optional Additional Work Sessions
*Please choose to only perform as much of the additional work as you can recover from successfully before your next training session.
Strongman Option
A.
Two sets for max reps of:
60 seconds of Stiff Leg Deadlift @ 25% of 1-RM Deadlift
Rest 60 seconds
Followed by. . .
In 12 minutes build to today’s 3-RM Sumo Deadlift
Perform these barefoot and create strong external torque. Do not let the plates bounce off the floor; find tension and then accelerate the barbell up. Use straps if you need to, but do not use a mixed-grip.
B.
Two sets of:
Deadlift x Max Reps @ 75% of 1-RM
Immediately followed by. . .
Farmers Carry x 200 Meters
Rest 90 seconds
Carry the sandbag until your glutes and hammies cramp or you start to slow down and make that funny wiggle walk. The benchmark on this is 50% of your max deadlift. You should be able to do at a MINIMUM 50% (if you cannot, work on it!).
