5 Rounds:
6 Thrusters 115 / 85 lb
500/450 Meter Bike Erg

Time Cap: 18 Minutes

Stimulus
  • Overview: Ten rounds of barbell and bike work today with lower volume sets and harder effort bikes to break them up. While we may want to push the pace on both the bar and bike, we'll need to be thinking about where we can make the most of our breathing and trying to recover and keep moving. Will that be the bar? Or will that be the bike?
  • Power Cleans: About :30 of work or less.
  • Bike: About 1:00 of work consistently across all rounds.
  • Thrusters: Unbroken sets and :30 or less.
  • Score: Time to complete work.
Strategy
  • Athletes should be prepared to keep a hard effort from beginning to end on today's piece. Barbell sets should be 1-2 sets of work, no fast singles today if we can avoid it, choose a weight you can cycle for the cleans and hold onto on the thrusters.
  • Bike efforts have to be high as well today to keep us under the cap, we're going to push harder here than we might think that we need to, focus on that breathing and heart rate here to keep us smooth on the barbell.
