Athlete Training Notes
All sorts of skill work coming up today. We’ve got options on options on options for people of all different skill levels and abilities. After the primary handstand work we’ll transition into our weekly EMOM. On station 1 we’re looking for 45-50 seconds on the bike. After that you’ve got your handstand push up/toes to bar complex. Ideally you’re unbroken there and able to finish in about 30-35 seconds or less. Station 3 is where we want you to be a little aggressive today. Ideally this station is taking about 50 seconds at a hard effort because the following station, jump rope, realistically shouldn’t take more than about 30 seconds. Cardio and skills today, push the machines and see how it affects everything else.
