Workout Overview

Stimulus

In part 1, We are continuing our Linear Progression cycle.   Keep in mind that all our percentages are based on technical failure and not simply completion regardless of mechanics and quality.  Essentially the name of the game with this cycle is that it starts challenging and stays challenging. The challenge only increases due to fatigue, not due to increased load.  In part 2, This workout kicks off with a hard effort on the rower, followed by a challenging combo of wallballs and burpees. The row sets the tone, so push hard but leave enough in the tank for the second part. You can break up the 100 wallballs and 50 burpees however suits you best—find a strategy that allows you to keep moving without burning out. Stay steady and focus on maintaining consistent, manageable sets to finish strong!

Scoring

Score | Time to complete work

Movements

Row | 4:00-5:00

Wallballs | Loading should allow for 10+ reps unbroken at a time.

Burpee Over Rower | 5:00 total working time, choose sets that allow you to move unbroken. 

The One | Teaching Focus

Brace Your Core

Instruct athletes to take a deep breath into their belly and engage their core before descending into the squat.

This stabilizes the spine, helps maintain an upright torso, and prevents rounding of the lower back.

Look For

  • Row | Athletes should pace the rower in a way they can get off the rower and get right to work on partitioned work. 
  • Wallball | Look for athletes to drive with the legs through their wallballs, the shoulders will fatigue from the burpees so the more we can drive with the legs and hips the better. 
  • Burpee Over Rower | Look for steady pacing, athletes should be consistently moving through reps,  if they are having to rest too long they chose the wrong rep scheme.
