Today's workout is meant to be heavy. You are lifting for only 10 seconds at a time. You should aim for at least 3 reps in each interval. With the low rep scheme and low sets (8) you want to lift close to your 3 rep max weight. We are building strength, power and muscular stamina with this workout. Today's Workout INVERSE TABATA This Tabata interval is 10 secs of work followed by 20 secs of rest for 8 intervals. Rest 2 min between Tabatas.
WOD Notes
If the benchmark weights are not within the athlete's ability, scale weight to 3RM. The shoulder press is a strict press, no leg drive. Shoulder press and front squat come from the rack. Your score is the total reps performed in all of the intervals. Laurie looking strong on her chest-to-bar pull-up!
Today's workout tests not only our endurance and strength, but our mental toughness. There are no prescribed reps for the pull-ups, you just keep going until you fall off the bar. Not having a set number for a goal, you are forced to persevere, you must hang on for as long as you can. This workout can be a great metaphor for life. How soon do you drop off the bar when things start to get a little difficult? Can you hang on for more rep? Can you keep calm and keep going? What happens when life gives you a curveball? Do you throw in the towel? NO! Of course you don't. You hang on and see if you can go a little longer. You are at least 20 times stronger than you think you are. See if you can get 20% more pull-ups at each round than you think you can. Hang on!
