-rest 3 minutes b/t sets-

Target Time each set: 3-4 minutes

• Time Cap each set: 5 minutes

STIMULUS and GOALS

• How to Pace: CHALLENGE! Nice little chipper that we will go through twice. Reps and weight are manageable enough where effort should be non-stop. The rest is long enough to where intensity should be amplified on the final set.

• How it should Feel: PAIN!!! Test out the first set with a test pace approach and then it’s time to light the lungs up with set 2.

WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW

• Calorie Bike: It’s short, the first Bike should be the primer where you push, but wind down the final 2-3 calories for a smooth exit. Second bike should have a strong, sprint type finish to the end (85%).

• Overhead Squat – MUST come from the ground though. : Weight is light-moderate (-50%) where both sets should be unbroken. Squat snatch right into it, breathe through each rep and move.

• Rope Climb : It is a bear in the middle here! Make sure you utilize your core, effective foot position and a strong pull!
