WHITE BOARD BRIEF
Target | 5+ rounds
Today’s workout is lower-body intensive with a combination of a light pull and jumping at a high volume.
We want athletes to come out at a fast pace when the volume is lower, slow down in the middle during the larger sets, and try to pick the pace back up as they descend down the ladder to finish the workout.
The load on the deadlifts should feel moderate and allow athletes to make it through most rounds unbroken.
Scale the load of the deadlift and the height of the box as needed to meet the stimulus. We want athletes to finish the first round in about 2 – 2 1/2 minutes
After the workout, we’ll spend time on extra core work and moving on the GHD. We’ll likely partner up to get more people on the GHD, but we can scale to weighted sit-ups on the floor if needed.
