Workout Strategy and Flow

  • During our Mini-Murph prep build up, we have had an easier Thursday to allow our bodies to rest and recover before we hit our 2nd Murph style prep work for the week on Friday. This is still true for today. Approach this workout at an easy-moderate pace. No need to worry about getting the top time on the leaderboard, just move to sweat and feel good.
  • Today let’s make these our main 2 focuses: 1) a tight core/midline and 2) explosive broad jumps.
