Options for Today’s Session:
Some of you will take today to redo 18.5 and others will take today to completely rest. Choose which option best suits your goals and schedule as far as your gym access tomorrow and the submission time of 5:00 pm PST.
OR
Aerobic Restoration
25-40 minutes of one of the following performed at 60-70% effort – easy, restorative pace:
* Swim (this is my first choice, and if you have an ocean, even better)
* Row (focus on mechanics, smooth and efficient with a very low stroke per minute pace)
* AirDyne (keep the pace conversational and relaxed)
* Cycling (get outdoors and enjoy the scenery as you ride)
* Hike (nothing crazy here, find a nice easy slope and go for a walk outdoors)
Mobility and Maintenance
* Choose 1-2 Thoracic Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 5-10 minutes with them.
* Choose 2-3 Lower Body Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 10-12 minutes with them.
* Choose 1-2 Upper Extremity Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 5-10 minutes with them.
– AND/OR –
* Body work from a licensed body worker (ART, Graston, acupuncture, etc…)
– 64 reps! And that’s a wrap.
Worked up really good with the PM warm up. Sweaty but not tired. Took a 16 reps PR from last May! Happy with the noobs gain! Haha.
Thank Invictus and everyone’s notes and input for this entire Open prep cycle . Really felt mentally prepared and planned. And progress is just getting started!
