Look For
Strict pull ups
Elbow.
Send the elbows back and down, not out and wide.
Hand release push ups
Position.
In the HRPU, the hips should leave the ground first. It should not be a “rolling” or “worm” push up.
Run
Cadence.
With the volume of today’s run, help athletes modify the distance appropriately. If they want to challenge themselves and complete the full 5K, but struggle with the distance, encourage a run/walk/run cadence.

“Pursue one great decisive aim with force and determination.” – Carls Von Karlswich
Are we trying to do too much?We are an ambitious group. The growth mindset. The hunger mindset. It is rare for us to come up short on effort. But the emphasis of this quote is not on the back, but the front. “One great decisive aim”. What it hones in on, is the factor of choice.To be able to stand in a room with a thousand doors, and be able to close 999 of them.
It can be ironically be far more challenging to *not* do something… than to do it.
Together let’s take a step back today, and boil things down the basics. What are we after?
Sometimes less can be more.
