WOD THOUGHTS: *Target: just above reach. Focus is high effort, midline stamina, and grip. The burpees today are to a target and the only goal here is to move fast, and get to the DB’s. Once we pick up the DB’s challenge yourself to hold on and stay unbroken. This will affect the Toe to Bar, but we want to work on challenging you a bit here to still stay strong with big sets on Toe to Bar with grip fatigue.

Naturally, your first round will be the fastest. But after the first round we really want to see steady pace for rounds 2 and 3, so plan the sets of chest to bar according to your ability in order to maintain consistent pacing throughout. RPE: 9/10

WOD THOUGHTS: Today, challenge yourself to hang on to both the Dumbbell and Wall Balls as best as possible. We want to use the Double Unders as an opportunity to dial in your breathing and to prepare yourself for the upcoming movements. The back end of this workout is the crux and we want you to try and finish strong, so start at a pace that will allow for this. 

 

Saturday

WOD THOUGHTS: Each athlete will go through 2 rounds of the workout with the 1st athlete jumping onto the rower while the other two rest. Once the first athlete is off the rower, they will move to the farmers carry, while athlete 2 jumps on the rower, athlete 3 will jump on the rower once athlete 2 is off the rower and athlete 2 will move onto the farmers carry only if athlete 1 is off the farmers carry. The workout will proceed like this until all 3 athletes have completed 2 rounds of the workout.

Weekly Programming Focus: We are now past the Open. Congrats to everyone that completed the Open and a huge thank you to you coaches for putting on a great experience for all of your members. We know how challenging the logistics are of the Open, so I am sure for some of you it is a sigh of relief to be done with the Open and moving forward with more normal weeks ahead. For all those that are moving onto Quarterfinals, a huge congratulations, as year in and year out the top 10% keeps getting better and better! For the majority I know we are excited to put a bow on this cycle and get ready for a new cycle. With that, we will have some tests coming in the next two weeks before hitting a brief transition phase and then getting into our Power Cycle. More to come in the next few weeks on the Power Cycle as we get ready to get explosive.
