Workout Overview

Stimulus

This workout is a full-body challenge that will test your endurance, core strength, and stability. The 400-meter run will elevate your heart rate, the AbMat sit-ups will target your core, and the 300’ front rack carry will challenge your midline stability and shoulder endurance. Focus on maintaining a steady pace during the runs, staying strong through the sit-ups, and bracing your core to control the front rack carry. Consistency and efficient transitions are key to completing this workout quickly!

Strategies

The One | Teaching Focus

Bracing the Core in Dumbbell Front Rack Carry

Today’s focus is on properly bracing the core during the dumbbell front rack carry. This exercise not only strengthens your shoulders and arms but also heavily engages your core muscles. Maintaining a strong core brace is essential for stability, preventing injury, and maximizing the effectiveness of the movement. By keeping your core tight, you support your spine and maintain an upright posture, which is crucial when carrying weight in the front rack position.

Look For:

  • Run | Athletes should start with a pace they can maintain consistent effort across the 4 rounds. 
  • Sit Ups | Steadily moving here, we want to stay moving through the 30 reps. 
  • Front Rack Carry | Look for athletes to maintain a stabilized midline, the DBs shouldn't be completely rested on the shoulders; we want this to be an active hold.
