PACE GOAL: 100/70 total Calories

FOCUS:

  • Cycling a heavyish barbell, upper body endurance

  • Heavy leg fatigue on the bike since the upper body will be gassed

STRATEGY:

  • Working on stringing some reps together on cleans, 4/3/3, 5/5 or 6/4

  • Go for big sets on push-ups

  • Round 1 you will have around 2:30 on the bike, that time will start to be cut back a good amount as the rounds go on so push hard in the early rounds on the bike

EQUIPMENT CONSIDERATIONS:

  • Add another machine if needed or you can change the format

  • 4 minute time block: AMRAP 2 of 3 Power Cleans + 6 Hand Release Push-ups, AMRAP 2 of max calorie bike, 1 minute rest between rounds, start some on the cleans and push-ups and some on the bikes, switch at the 2 minute mark, everyone rests for 1 minute
