CONDITIONING
Feel: Cardio Pacing: Sustain
Target Score: 24-30 Minutes Firebreather Score: Sub-22 Minutes
Scaling:
– Burpees: Should not exceed 2 minutes in any round, but should only be scaled for highly de-conditioned
athletes.
– BJO: Should not exceed 2 minutes to complete in any round, or box height and/or reps should be
reduced. Use Open standard requiring a step-down. Reduce box height before reps.
Coach Focus: 32 minute cap on the workout (although most should finish in under 30) means the warm up focus should be on getting blood-flow and getting right to work. Today’s cardio test will take most athletes between 24 and 30 minutes, with 30 minutes (6 minutes per round) being the longer end. This is intended to be a highly accessible workout where most athletes can do this as prescribed. Athletes will benefit from using any machine, however skiing should be reserved for athletes who are familiar with the machine and can maintain a steady pace, otherwise run or row. Athletes not using a rower should perform lateral burpees over a loaded barbell.

COMPETITOR EXTRA
Stimulus: Stamina Rest: As Prescribed Target Score: N/A
Firebreather Score: N/A Scaling:
– Ring Dip: Banded Ring Dips, Ring Push Ups, or Ring Supports (:05-:20/round)
Coach Focus: Creating the stability and strength to perform a ring dip starts with practice. There is a large neurological component to a ring dip (mind-muscle connection) so most athletes should start by performing a ring support before “graduating” to the ring push up or banded ring dip. Stability must be there to avoid an unnecessary injury.
