July 10, 2023 – Invictus Athlete Program

**REMINDER**
You might notice that we changed the name of the Invictus Athlete Program to Invictus Athlete+ on our SugarWOD platform to better align our branding and who the program is geared toward. Nothing else will change about the programming itself. You will continue to enjoy your five regular training days, active recovery day, plus additional optional sessions each week. We highly recommend you move your subscription over to the SugarWOD app to enjoy additional benefits!

Athlete Notes:
Snatch fast, burpee faster. The goal here is not to bury people on snatches, so start the first round at 60% and go up by 5% on each bar if the given numbers are above your abilities in round 1. Most athletes will benefit in the later rounds by starting with singles, but we want to see you guys pushing the pace a little bit and risking failure. See what you’re capable of and if you do in fact miss a rep, take an extra 10-15 seconds before the next attempt to make sure it’s good. But, if you go through this whole workout super paced because you’re respecting the snatches too much you’ll never learn to push in a competition ladder type scenario. A good goal is to have about 90-120 seconds of burpees in the first round; about 60 seconds of burpees in round 2, and then it’s send it and see what happens in round 3. If these snatch numbers aren’t a worry for you then we fully expect you to hammer the barbell and maximize your time. You get a big break so don’t ease off the gas at all.
