Workout Overview

Stimulus

This is our final week of the cycle for these two lifts!  Today is our opportunity to see how staying consistent through this cycle has paid off.  In part 2, This 15-minute AMRAP is all about maintaining a strong, steady pace. The Bike Erg will spike your heart rate, the kettlebell swings will challenge your grip and endurance, and the double unders will test your coordination under fatigue. Keep moving consistently through each round and aim to get as many rounds as possible!

Scoring

Movements

Bike | About 1:00 respectively. 

KB Swing | 2-3 sets each round.

Double Under | About 1:00 or less.

The One | Teaching Focus

Full-Body Tension for Power

Today’s emphasis is on maintaining tension throughout the entire body during the bench press. This full-body tension is key to stabilizing the lift, enabling more weight to be handled safely and efficiently. Athletes should focus on engaging not just the chest and arms, but also the legs, glutes, and core. By driving their feet into the ground, squeezing the glutes, and tightening the core, athletes create a solid foundation that translates into greater power and stability on the press.

  • Bike | Cue athletes to create small circles with their feet to allow them to push and pull the pedals, so that we are utilizing more muscles in the legs. 
  • KB Swing | Look for your athletes to be driving with the legs, we have big sets and we will be more successful if we can keep the leg drive strong. 
  • Double Under | Encourage your athletes to relax their shoulders through their reps today.
