STIMULUS and GOALS
How to Pace: STEADY!. Form a strategy that will work for both partners! Big sets are good as long as y’all don’t fall off too much! We want to go at about 80% intensisty to start and try to get a big chunk of Toes To Bar out of the way so we can minimize the amount of lunges.
How it should Feel: PAIN!!: The toes to bar and lunge combo will get your heart rate elevated and also your grip fired up. We want you to push each other to your limits on this one! Don’t let your partner down and keep the intensity up til its over!
WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
Toes to bar: plan a strategy for sets with your partner. Aim to maintain this and not blow up! We need to push the pace but not smoke ourselves on round 1. Ideally, rest and get in large chunks so this doesn’t turn into a Walking Overhead Lunge workout.
Lunge: No breaks. Reach the 50ft each time and alternate hands if needed each time you get to the lunge. Use this is your break from the toes to bar so aim for a relaxed grip on the kettlebell(s) and consistent/steady movement.
