Stimulus
– Conditioning Category: Threshold

– The flow of the workout will have us complete the 5 rounds of the two movements then immediately perform the 1 big round.
– Score: Time
Strategy
THE BIG TAKEAWAYS
1. We want to think smooth transitions here in the first part. Our ability to put the rope down and pick the bar up seamlessly will help us get into a good rhythm and not lose time,
2. Let’s reach for a big set on the second section of the workout. Let the goal to be unbroken, but have the smarts to drop a few reps before we would get into trouble if going unbroken isn’t in the cards today.
