COACH'S NOTES

MOBILITY/ACTIVATION

-Perform a few reps of each movement with light weights.

-Make sure you can achieve unbroken sets or at most having to break your set only once.

Focus Points:

-Today we are trying to limit grip fatigue as best as possible.

-We are performing a round every 4 minutes so the faster you complete the round, the longer you rest.

-Making sure we use the warm up reps to choose our weights and exercise choice accordingly.

-The rest is built in specifically to allow for a brief recovery before repeating the round again.

-The means that we can attack each round with a sense up purpose in stead of dragging through the rounds in a continuous fashion.

Goal:

Matt and Kenny's Times per round = R1 2:50 R2 2:48 R3 2:31 R4 2:28 R5 2:13

-You should be anywhere from 2-3:00 per round. Use SUBS to achieve this.
