For the Coach

Resource Drive

Workout Overview

Stimulus

Hold onto your hats and barbells for this one! Lots of grippy movements with some short runs mixed in means we want to be careful not to go too hard too fast, but we also don't want to be overly cautious. Let this one get a little spicy in the first triplet knowing your grip gets a slight break in the second, and try to hit the gas at the end to bring it home.

Scoring

Score | Time to complete all work. Add 1s per rep if you are time capped.

Movements

Runs | About 1:00 of work.

Power Snatches | the weight is meant to be very light

Toes to Bar | 1-3 sets

Lateral Barbell Burpees | 1:00 or less of work.

The One | Teaching Focus

Look For

  • Runs | Relaxed arms, with the runs giving the break from the other movements we want to remain relaxed to try and let the arms recover.
  • Power Snatches | Barbell cycling efficiency.  Be sure athletes are keeping the bar close and exploding through the hips. 
  • Toes to Bar | athletes should look to keep manageable sets.  We want to avoid athletes dropping to singles.
  • Lateral Barbell Burpees | smoothe pace to allow us to slow the heart rate and breathing.
  • Rope Climbs | look for the sequence: reach, tuck, clamp, stand.
