STIMULUS and GOALS
How to Pace: SPRINT, GRIND, RECOVER and REPEAT. That’s the recipe for success on this interval. Goal is to set the bar high and try to stay consistent. You need to have to push the pace on the Burpee Box Jumps so you have a good amount of time to do max effort Toes To Bar each round. Sometimes small sets and less rest can add up to more reps on the Toes To Bar.
How it should Feel: GASSY & GRIPPY! Max effort toes to bar after the burpee box jump povers will tax the forearms faster than you think. During the rest be sure to shake your arms out. This will tax you for sure.
WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
Burpee Box Jumps: We want a solid, fast pace. Stay low, Don’t stop moving and if the jump down is causing you to over rest then start stepping down off the box. Goal should be to finish the reps in sub 60 seconds.
Toes To Bar: Depending how much time is left we need to be smart with volume. If under 30 seconds then hold on and try to hit 15+ reps.
