At-Home Workouts (No Equipment)
For our at-home and travel workouts, please start a clock and allow it to run throughout your training session. The entire session will take 60-minutes or less, and staying accountable to the clock will allow you to maintain the appropriate intensity and stimulus.
Complete as many rounds and reps possible, performed at 75-80%, in 30 minutes of:
200 Meter Run OR 50 Smurf Jacks
60 seconds of Front Leaning Rest
200 Meter Run OR 50 Mountain Climbers

Three sets of:
2 minutes of Stretch # 1 (your top priority stretch of choice)
Rest 60 seconds
2 minutes of Stretch # 2 (your second priority stretch of choice)
Rest 60 seconds
Coaches Note:
Today’s intention is to perform this workout with the highest quality reps that you can. Do not be concerned about winning the workout with the most rounds. It is good to back off intensity occasionally, perform the exercises the best form you can, and recover mentally.
I hope you are taking time to care for your body; stretching, myofascial release, or anything else of your choosing that relieves tight muscles.
