Program Notes:
We are deloading our bench press today. Be prepared to test next week. We are using an EMOM 6 today for time efficiency and the bench press percentages are light so this should’nt be a problem. The bench is paired with rowing.
This will act as a warm up for the metcon. Focus on quality form on the rower and increase your pace each set to get primed for the Metcon: “Benny and the Jet’s”

Metcon intention/notes :
The main focus today will be our “Benny and the Jet’s” retest. Check your results from 9/17 and let’s push to beat your time. This is the end of our burpee/rowing series!
If you were consistently showing up on Tuesdays your endurance, stamina, and mental toughness has improved and today we get to prove it!

Scaling the Metcon:
**Personal scaling can go beyond any of the following for a variety of reasons. Consult your coach for what is best for you.
If you are repeating this workout from 9/17 then do the workout the exact way that you did last time for a true retest.
If this is your first timeā€¦..

  • the technique of the burpee can be scaled in a variety of ways for those who need to do so for prior injury, preganancy etc.
  • Beginners can take all reps/cal down by 10 and can perform standard burpees as needed
