Workout Overview

Stimulus

Big bodyweight and monostructural conditioning piece today, where the goal should be consistency across our rounds up until round 5, where we want to have some gas left to make a final push to the end. Picking where you're going to push and where you are going to pace yourself will be key.

  • Sit-ups | great place to move steadily and practice slowing our breathing down to allow us to keep moving.
  • Push-ups | Tight body position, no sagging.
  • Bike Erg | Chest and head up as we bike, that way we can easily breathe.
