800m run (bike 1000m)
Notes The barbell starts on the floor for the back squats. The load is moderate and is intended to allow for all rounds to be completed unbroken.
The sit-up volume is challenging and will impact the trunk for the back squats. Attempt to perform the movement at a fast pace on each round. Expect the final run to be very demanding when following the lower body demand of the back squats. Shooting for sub 12:00 will be a tough goal to strive for while completing the workout in under ~17:00 is a great goal. The reps on the sit-ups are 42-30-18. Run *Reduce the distance to complete in less than ~4:30 Back Squats *Reduce load to complete consistent “pretty” reps. *Choose to keep the loading and decrease the reps is a great option today to assist athletes moving more weight than usual. Sit-ups *Use a v-tuck Dumbbells Available *Use dumbbell front squats Bodyweight Only *Use air squats
Another good day at the gym. It’s amazing the things I can do now that I could not even dream of doing a year ago!
Have a great day and I will see some of you tomorrow!!
