Score: Total Bike Calories

AEROBIC POWER [LACTATE THRESHOLD]

Stimulus
  • Overview: This aerobic-heavy piece has bodyweight interruptions every two minutes. The bike is the priority, but the v-ups and box jumps will steadily tax your midline and legs, making it harder to maintain power on the bike as the workout progresses.
  • Workout Flow: The workout starts by completing one round of the v-ups and box jumps. After completion, complete max calories on the bike until the 2-minute mark. Every 2 minutes, you'll complete the v-ups and box jumps (12 rounds total). Your score is the total calories biked at the end of the 24 minutes.
  • Aim for the v-ups + box jumps to take between 0:30-1:00, leaving 1:00-1:30 to bike each interval. If needed, modify the movements to keep the total interruption under 1:00.
  • Alternating Single-Leg V-ups: Start with both hands on the floor behind your head. Raise your torso/arms and one leg at the same time. Touch both hands to the foot that is raised, ensuring your toes are above head level. Alternate legs each rep. Complete in 1-2 quick sets each round.
  • Box Jumps: Must reach full lockout/extension of the hips & knees at the top of the box. Step down off the top of the box - no rebounding. These are tall and at only 4 reps, so make each one deliberate.
  • Intended Intensity: RPE 7-8
  • Fitness Attribute Improved: Aerobic Power [Lactate Threshold]
  • Target Score: 200-300 Calories (M), 160-240 Calories (W)
Strategy
  • Move with purpose on the v-ups and box jumps, but stay relaxed and efficient so you’re back on the bike ready for a strong output.
  • Single-Leg V-ups: Focus on keeping your low back pressed into the floor and think “ribs to hips” as you fold up into your V.
  • Box Jumps: Approach these deliberately and with consistency. The higher box requires more mental focus and coordination, so stay engaged. Use your arms for momentum.
  • Bike: Get the bike spinning hard for the first few seconds, then settle right into your sustainable pace. Aim for consistent calories across all 12 intervals, biking at a pace you can maintain for the whole workout, with a push at the end.
