"Butterflies"35 min
5 Rounds For Time:
30/24 Calorie Bike Erg
30 Russian Kettlebell Swings 53 / 35 lb
10-20-30-40-50 Box Jumps (24"/20")
Stimulus
- Overview: An ascending ladder today of a second explosive hip movement means we should approach the first 3 rounds with a little caution so that we can maintain a similar and consistent pace even when arriving at the larger sets of box jumps in the later rounds.
- Bike Erg: 2:00 or less.
- Russian Kettlebell Swings: 1-2 sets.
- Box Jumps: Full extension of hip and knees on top of the box.
- Score: Time to complete work.
Strategy
- Athletes should remember that even 3 rounds in, you have not hit the half way point of the Box Jump reps, find a consistent pace from the start that allows you to catch your breath but continue to chip away.
- Make sure to over jump your first box jump because that explosive hip opening is going to be fatigued from the kettlebell swing each time you arrive at the box.
- Bike will most likely be at a lower damper and higher RPM pace that lets your legs recover some before getting back to the kettlebell.
