STIMULUS and GOALS

• How to Pace: PAIN CAVE!

Stimulus is high intensity. We have light thrusters paired with high-rep double and single unders. We want to challenge everyone to push and not set the bar or rope down when the first discomfort comes. Don’t settle for small sets with multiple breaks. Purposeful and consistent breathing while keeping the pace steady and not rushed will help you avoid blowing up.

• How it should Feel:

PAIN!!! Suck it up and keep fighting until the end. It is designed to take your legs and lungs, use the time between movements for longer breaks, and keep attacking.

WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW

• Double Unders : If you can complete these unbroken without it hindering your ability to attack the thrusters, then go for it! If you know that your heart rate will spike, then aim to break it up into 2-3 quick sets. The final set should be pushed for unbroken, or as close as possible.

• Thrusters : Very lightweight here. You should be able to do 25+ unbroken when fresh, so be explosive and pause at the top of each rep for a split second, when necessary, to breathe for a moment. Be smooth through these to keep your heart rate under control.

• Single Unders : These should be completed in 1-2 sets. Much less stress on the body here, so try to relax and settle into a steady rhythm.
