Athlete Notes:
We’re looking for full gas pedal on this workout. Hit the first 30 squats unbroken, maintain a consistent pace on the bike, hang on to that second set of squats, throttle down on the second bike, then just grind like your life depended on it for those last 30 squats. What pace can you hold on the bike while still performing 90 total dumbbell squats in unbroken sets of 30? On those squats we want to see you pushing the pace but not at the sake of movement quality. This is the time of the year to really hone in on movement patterns so make sure all your squats are full depth and extension at the top even though you’re trying to go fast. That said, don’t waste time at the top, pop the hips and drop right away. The odds of you failing because of the weight are slim so just hang on for one more rep.
Optional Additional Work Sessions
*Please choose to perform only those sessions that are most focused on your weaknesses, and only perform as much of the additional work as you can recover from successfully before your next training session.
