STIMULUS
- Overview: This descending rep triplet rewards fast cycling and quick transitions. You'll have to manage shoulder endurance across all three movements as the shoulders never really get a break.
- Choose a dumbbell weight you can complete unbroken throughout, and a jump rope variation you can complete with minimal trip-ups.
- Intended Intensity: RPE 7-8
- Target Loading: Light-Moderate
- Fitness Attribute Improved: Aerobic Power [VO2 Max]
- Target Score: 8-11 Minutes
* If time-capped, add 1s to your score for every incomplete rep.
STRATEGY
- The hardest part of this workout will be the second round. Don't come out so hot that your pace in round two becomes significantly slower than round one.
- Work on the Echo Bike at a pace that will keep you confident you can complete the double unders and push press with minimal breaks.
- Once you get beyond the second Echo Bike, you are over halfway through the workout. Start leaning into faster paces on the bike and challenge yourself.
