WOD Brief
BIG. That is today.. We will give the first 8 minutes to warm-up and stretch, and then we go into a specific endurance piece out of the gate. The intent is to GO HARD for these 8 seconds and then coast… till the next block of 8 seconds. Build up into that 8 seconds so you are at a sustained powerful effort.
Athletes will rest for a bit and then prepare for the second WOD.
This is a 25 minute AMRAP, which means 120% effort as we did in WOD 1 will be unsustainable. Instead aim for right at the red line, be quick on transitions, and trust yourself. The Assault Bike and row can capture your time if you are not too careful – instead push harder in those two movements, and then use the abmat situps as a chance to catch your breath while still moving through the reps.
Focus on nasal breathing with an occassional powerful inhale and exhale out of both your mouth and nose. We’ve shared the science, so just do your best, it’ll be worth it.
Scaling will have us rowing a bit less calories, ring rows 3x, assault bike again less calories.
Tomorrow we hit a giant barbell odyssey, so train smart today!
