50/40 Calorie Row
30 Burpee Box Jumps (24"/20")

Time Cap: 15 Minutes

Stimulus
  • Overview: Chipper style conditioning piece today, meaning we don't get to partition our work as we please. Since we only hit each movement one time we can give each of them a pretty hard effort. Finding the balance of effort and sustainability will be key from 3, 2, 1 go!
  • Run: About 5:00 of work.
  • Row: 5:00 or less.
  • Burpee Box Jumps: 5:00 or less.
  • Score: Time to complete work.
Strategy
  • Athletes should be sure to get their heart rate up pretty high in their warmup round so that their prepared to get out and hit their workout pace stride as quickly as possible and not spend a lot of time building up to it.
  • There is space for us to pick our poison in this piece by prioritizing based on our strengths and weaknesses. If we are strong in one or two movements, those might be where we choose to push our pace and find a steady working pace for the third movement.
