TARGET SCORE

Target Time each set: 4 minutes

Time Cap each set: 7 minutes

STIMULUS and GOALS

How to Pace: SPRINT. This workout should be one where you are able to hold onto big sets with minimal rest. The workload is intentionally low as a scheduled deload week.

How it should Feel: With the short time domain and big, fast sets, you will likely be out of breath with some muscle fatigue.

WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW

Dumbbell Snatches: Workout 1 should be a weight that you can do quick singles or touch n go sets of 3-4+ at a time. Set up with purpose and use all the hip drive to keep the movement fluid.

Air Squats: Fast and furious is the goal here! Unbroken is ideal.

Pistols: We don’t do these as often so aim to use these for some intentional practice.
