2) Jump Sit-Up Swing
3) Accessory I
Metcon (Distance)
230605
Conditioning challenge:
20:00 to establish max meters on a machine of your choice.
Stimulus & Goals
A test day (prepare to retest at the end of the month) that should still be an all-out effort.
No sandbagging in order to “improve” the retest.
Goal on the rower: 4,000/5,000-m+
Goal on the C2 bike: 8,000/10,000-m+
Goal on the Echo or Assault bike: 11,200/16,000-m+
Strategy
Maintain a steady, maintainable pace, but not at the expense of missed opportunities for distance here. It should be an all-out effort to test their current capacity.
Whichever machine you choose for this workout, we will revisit the same test at the end of the month. Choose wisely.
Metcon (Time)
JUMP SIT-UP SWING
5 rounds for time:
10 box jump-overs (24/30 in)
15 GHD sit-ups
25 Russian KB swings (35/53 lb)
Stimulus & Goals
11:00-16:00.
Perform the Russian KB swings in no more than 2 sets.
Keep each round to 3:00 or less
Strategy
Box jump-overs | Although these are higher boxes, the fastest way to perform these is lateral to your box. Really think about using your arms as you jump and aim for the middle of the box on every jump.
GHD sit-ups | Each rep focus on squeezing your thighs and driving your heels into the platform on the way up. Knees should be bent as you go down and aggressively extend your knees as you come up.
Russian KB swings | The weight should be light enough that you can perform the 25 reps unbroken or in 2 sets. Really think about driving your heels into the ground and using your hips to push the KB up to eye level. Your arms are simply “straps” attached to the KB
Because these reps are unbroken for the most part, take a few deep breaths prior to moving to your next exercise. This will be your “break” time.
