STIMULUS and GOALS
Stimulus is moderate intensity while being mindful of grip as the workout goes on. Smooth reps on the dumbbell and stay relaxed on the rope will help keep efficiency.
WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
Dumbbell Clean and Jerk: The same dumbbell and the reps stay the same.
Reps are 12 total so 6 each arm and the transition will help with cycle time but if grip is breaking down then look to switch at the bottom to stay moving. Be overly aggressive with the hip drive and punch as weight will only get heavier as workout goes on.
Try to stay cycling for all 12 reps or break into 2 sets with a quick turn around on rest.
Double Unders: Reps climb up and then descend back down. Stay calm and relaxed with loose shoulders and fast wrist. Light on the feet and breathe while trying to stay unbroken. Sometimes it’s better to ride the wave to the end then to break and try to regain control.

30/24 Calorie Assault Bike
20 Burpee Box Jump Overs (24/20)
10 Power Cleans (185/135)
Stimulus for the workout today is high intensity. No strategy but just move faster than what you plan.
WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
Assault Bike: whether it’s assault or echo ramp the bike up for 6-8 seconds then settle into a 85%+ until the last 2-3 calories. Wind it down just a little and get out the bike and go! Second workout it’s all about getting on the bike and going. Doesn’t matter if you sell out of attack like the first workout but light a fire in your pants and push to the end.
Burpee Box Jump Overs: Both feet must make contact with the top of the box. Just stay moving, no matter what your mind is telling you. Dig deep and keep getting up and down while breathing on each rep.
Power Clean: Weight is going to feel a lot heavier here so be ready to grip and rip with everything you got on every rep. Be aggressive with those hips!
