Stimulus

– Conditioning Category: Threshold

– The weight on the bar should be light and something you could cycle for 20+ overhead squats unbroken when fresh. The bar will come from the floor, not the rack.

– If you do not think you can complete the chest to bar in 2-3 sets within the workout, let’s reduce the reps or modify the movement.

– Your burpees should face the box. Be sure to stand up all the way on the box before coming down.

– Score: Time

Strategy

THE BIG TAKEAWAYS

1. Aim to complete the overhead squats in 1-2 sets.

2. Aim to complete the chest to bar in 1-3 sets.

3. Find a steady pace on the burpee box jumps.

4. We’ll need to be smart about our strategy and sets early on so that we don’t burn up the shoulders. The only reason we break in this workout is because we CHOOSE to, not because we HAVE to (due to fatigue). While the barbell is light, 1 break could be the difference between going 2 sets or 3 sets on the chest to bar which is the true separator in this workout. Be smart on the barbell and pace the burpee box jumps so you can hold on for bigger sets on the chest to bar.
