Athletes Notes

Workout Strategy and Flow

  • This is a 12 minute AMRAP, meaning you have 12 minutes to complete as many rounds and reps as possible!!
  • Let’s be cautious of the pace that we come out at. Our legs are definitely going to start feeling this one, so be smart at the start and speed it up towards the final 2-3 minutes.
  • Air Squats – should be able to complete as sets of 14 and 10 reps with 2-4 second rest between sets.
  • Sit Ups – smooth is fast here. We don’t have to come out crazy, but it should allow for you to stay moving through all of the reps.
  • Box Jump – be very cautious of the box height. Your legs are going to start feeling heavy and I want you to be VERY confident that you can make every jump on that box without hitting your shin.
