Athlete Training Notes
During today’s EMOM we’re looking for station 1 to take about 50 seconds. You’ll get a breath or two before starting on your double unders and bar muscle ups. If you need to adjust for pull-ups or another gymnastics pulling movement then make sure it’s something you can do unbroken and that only takes about 20-30 seconds to complete. An example would be 10-14 chest to bar pull-ups instead. After that we’re onto the 20 wall balls which we’re expecting to see unbroken. That should take about 40-45 seconds or so which means you’ll get 15 seconds to take a few deep breaths before hitting a full sprint on the row. The goal is to hammer out the required calories on the row as fast as you can. You’ll go a little anaerobic doing this but we want to see how fast you can push under significant fatigue. You’ll get a full rest minute so if you row fast that minute could turn into 80 seconds.
