Barbell: 75 / 55 lb
Stimulus
– Conditioning Category: Threshold

– The bike should be cleared in 1:00 or less each round.
– Score: Time
Strategy
THE BIG TAKEAWAYS
1. While we don’t want to be casual on the bike, we don’t want to push so hard that we can’t immediately pick up the bar each round.
2. To help control our breathing and heart rate, let’s think smooth reps on the snatches to keep ourselves under control. We want to hit big sets here so cycling the bar quickly will likely cause us to break more in the later rounds.
3. Even though the weight is light, let’s not be afraid to drop under the bar instead of muscle snatching every rep.

Stimulus
– Working short intervals here on the rower.
– We want to reach here a little on each interval to get comfortable pushing that threshold pace a little. Guys can aim to row above 1000 cals/hr and ladies can aim to row above 900 cals/hr.
– We will log the time for all 6 sets and the app will combine them for our score.
