For the Coach

Workout Overview

Stimulus

We've got a simple, but not easy piece for you today. Burpees and running are a potent combination, especially when we are on a clock. We want to find a run pace that allows us to get in with at least a minute to immediately get to work on our burpees.

Scoring

Score | Slowest round.

Movements

Run | 2:00 or less today.

Burpees | About :40 of work, we should have a short rest before starting our next run.

Strategies

The One | Teaching Focus

Threshold pace

Athletes should be aiming to push the pace a bit today and earn themselves some rest before having to start their next round. This being said, we need to operate at just below our threshold pace to be consistent across our rounds.

Logistics

We should aim for our splits to be within about :10-:15 seconds of each other across the workout, if you come out too hot you'll burn out and if you start out too slow, you'll be playing catch up the rest of the piece to settle into a pace.

Athletes should try to have :15-:30 of rest each round at their sustainable pace.

Look For

  • Run | athletes have to be able to complete the run in 2:00 or less today.  If they are cutting it close or going over, they need to pull back the distance.
  • Burpees | because athletes will need about :15-:20 to rest before their next round, make sure they are not going over that time frame in the round.  If they do not have time to recover each time, they will loose more and more time.
