PERFORMANCE
Warm-Up.
Choose one of the following and spend 5 minutes with it:
Followed by…
Elephant Marching x 20 steps (slow – hold each step a few seconds)
(focus on what the area you just mobilized is doing)
Followed by…
Two Sets:
“W” Hold x 20-30 seconds
Alternating Plank to Pike Toe Touches x 20-30 seconds
Followed by…
Two Sets:
Ground to Sky Touches x 8-10
Tuck Jumps x 3-5
Then…
Every 10 minutes, for 40 minutes (4 sets) for times:
40/30 Calories of Assault Bike
800 Meter Run
50 Double-Unders
Modify the workout appropriately such that you get between 2-3 minutes of rest between sets. The intent is smooth pacing and four sets that are very similar in time. If you are running over the 8-minute mark, scale back accordingly.

For anyone who likes to compare vs their past performances, I show we did this back in Sep 1
Took a rest day yesterday…so this is exactly what I needed since it’s 75* in NY today…I never thought I’d say this but running outside was outstanding!
Had to do this for time with +/- 2:15 rest between rounds
9:11 / 8:47 / 8:55 / 9:52 = 43:37 (total time with rest)
30 AB cals – 3:12 / 3;04 / 3;20 / 3:54
800m Run (OUTSIDE) – 4:15 / 4:22 / 4:20 / 4:15
50 DU – 3 trips / 2 trips / UB / 1 trip
No doubt I knew that this one would be a challenge for me. Endurance and cardio always my Achilles and this one came with 3 types of it, including DUs which I trip every 10 even after years of doing them!
I wanted to get the work in, so my format was 4 rounds as prescribed, with 2 mins rest between rounds.
11:32
10:50
11:29
11:07
Total time with rest – 50:58
Outstanding Viv…good for you to go RX! I’m totally with you with cardio…I can go forever..but my forever is very slow.
