Score: Total Bike Calories

AEROBIC POWER [LACTATE THRESHOLD]
STIMULUS
- Overview: Each 2-minute window begins with one rope climb and 10 push-ups before accumulating as many bike calories as you can in the remaining time. There is no rest between rounds, 30 minutes straight.

- Choose rope climb and push-ups reps/variations that you can complete in 1:00 or less, giving you equal time on the bike each round.

- Hand-Release Push-ups: At the bottom of your reps, your chest must touch the ground, and your hands must be lifted off the ground. You must remain in a plank position, meaning hips do not pike up or sag down as you push yourself into a fully locked-out position.

- Intended Intensity: RPE 6-7

- Fitness Attribute Improved: Aerobic Power [Lactate Threshold]

- Target Score:
Men: 230-280 Calories
Women: 180-230 Calories
STRATEGY
- The Echo Bike is the place to moderate the intensity. If the rope climbs are becoming challenging, pull your pace back a little to ensure you can complete your rope climbs efficiently.

- If you can't complete 30 standard push-ups unbroken, then taking some strategic breaks on the push-ups from the beginning is a smart idea.
