Athletes Notes

Workout Strategy and Flow

  • We have a chipper today, meaning you HAVE to complete all of movement 1, before you can move onto movement 2, then all of movement 2 before you can move on to movement 3…and so on.
  • This will be grunt work and a sweat sesh. Just put your head down and work!!!
  • Burpee Broad Jump – focus on steady movement. To mentally help you overcome these 40, I would say do 10 at a time, taking a quick break before getting started on the next 10. You don’t have to jump high, rather jump far. For RX we are looking for a 4ft jump for men and a 3ft jump for women. If you need to scale distance, that works too!
  • Side Plank – you do not have to do these 60 seconds unbroken, but you do need to accumulate 60 seconds total on one side before moving to the other. So if you need to take a quick break, the main clock will still be counting up so don’t waste precious time.
  • FOR ALL 200FT SECTIONS – PERFORM THESE AS DOWN 25FT AND BACK 25FT FOR A TOTAL OF 200FT
    • Bodyweight Walking Lunge – We would recommend doing 50ft unbroken and shaking it out. Be cautious of trying to do a bigger chunk at once and then falling a part. We want to stay steady moving with quick breaks instead of moving too fast and then having to take much longer breaks.
    • Bear Crawl OR Handstand Walk – by this point you will be so close to the ending but your arms and legs will be tired. Aim to push through to the finish, still maintaining 50ft unbroken for bear crawls or 25ft unbroken for handstand walk.

Substitution

  • If you don’t have space to do a Burpee Broad Jump, you can do a Burpee Tuck Jump.
  • If you don’t have space to do a walking lunge, you can do 8 Bodyweight Forward Lunges in place for every 25ft.
  • If you don’t have space to do the bear crawl, you can do 6 Bear Crawl Alternating Shoulder Taps (L+R=1) for every 25ft.

Scaled

40 Elevated Up Down with Jump
60 second Knee Side Plank
64 Alternating Wall Assisted Step Back Lunges
