Athlete Notes:
Gymnastics EMOM’s are here to stay for the duration of this cycle. Today’s work is primarily focused on pulling. We’ve got a ring complex in the second station and then some burpee pull-ups in the 4th. The two calorie based stations should be something that take about 45 seconds to complete. Take a couple deep breaths and then jump right up on those rings, don’t waste any time. On the burpee pull-ups make sure you’re hitting the ground and getting your chin all the way over the bar. Don’t waste time staring at the ground, just let gravity do the work and fall right away. We’re accumulating a lot of volume with elevated heart rates this off-season so just keep in mind that all this work is going to pay off!
