Tuesday

– Conditioning Category: Pacer

– Working on longer endurance piece with some built in grunt work.

– After completing the 90 machine calories, you’ll advance to the farmers carry.

– This should be a challenging weight, but one that allows you to complete this station in less than 4 minutes.

STRATEGY

THE BIG TAKEAWAYS

1. Since heavy dumbbells follow the machines, we can push the pace knowing those are going to slow us down a bit. Find a moderate speed that you will see yourself being able to hold for all 3 sets of 90 calories.

2. Think short, fast efforts on the dumbbells. Grip will most likely be the limiting factor on this movement. Move the feet quickly and try to keep your breaks to 10 seconds or less to keep moving forward. Short bursts from the beginning will help to preserve the forearms to keep moving forward.
