Workout Overview

Stimulus

We have a team workout today where we are trying to accumulate as many calories on the bike as we can.  Teams will waterfall start, once partner one makes it through and gets to the bike, partner two will start.  Once partner two gets to the bike, partner one will rest, and partner 3 will start their round.  They will continue in this fashion until the thirty minute clock is up.  We have a lot of cardio combined with some weightlifting, be sure athletes choose an appropriate weight, that will allow them to go unbroken for the most part. 

Scoring

Score | Total Calories on Bike

Movements

Double Unders | 1:00 or less

Run | 1:00 or less

Push jerks | Moderately challenging, but unbroken

Strategies

The One | Teaching Focus

Aggressive Punch

Focus on athletes punching hard to catch the barbell in a stacked locked out position.  We want to avoid the “press out” at the top of the rep.

Look For

  • Double Unders | relaxed arms.  Elbows should be pulled in close to the body, and shoulders are relaxed.
  • Run | pacing, athletes should be giving this a hard effort, but not hard enough that they cant get straight to the barbell and pick it up. 
  • Push jerks | hard punch.  Athletes are looking to catch the barbell with a sound overhead position each rep.
