The goal is to keep moving for the entire 32 minutes with each station taking around 35-45 seconds, Station 4 should be a little faster and give you the opportunity to gather yourself before you hit the next Assault Bike. Your pace should stay the same but RPE will increase as you get deeper into the workout.
Athlete Notes:
Another Wednesday EMOM coming your way! Rule #1 of EMOM’s.. nobody talks about EMOM’s (name that movie). On a more serious note, you guys should be seasoned veterans at this by now. The most important thing is starting the next station. Don’t let precious seconds tick away while you contemplate your discomfort. Remember, each station should take no longer than 35-40 seconds for at least the first few rounds. When you finish this, you’ll be that much stronger, both physically and mentally.
Optional Additional Work Sessions
*Please choose to only perform as much of the additional work as you can recover from successfully before your next training session.
Rowing Endurance Option
Three sets for times of:
Row 2000 Meters
Rest 4 minutes
Goal is to have the lowest possible total time. In order to do so, you will have to monitor your pacing to maintain some consistency over the course of the three sets. Please post all three times and your sum total time – e.g., 6:20 + 6:26 + 6:22 = 19:08.
6, 4, 1+2, 3, 2 muscle ups. Happy to get six in a row, something haven’t even tried in a long time but it definitely depleted me for the next two sets.
Scaled to 12 cals, 35lbs x12
A- used 70kg for all of these.
B- I scaled big time and it still kicked my butt. 10 cals (after starting first two rds at 12) and used empty barbell.
