Program notes:

  • We are doing a very challenging conditioning piece today. We will test this again down the road. Do your best today but don’t worry about your time. Show up.
  • Working on some gymnastic positional stability while warming up with the EMOM – focus on mind body connection. What are my muscles doing? Feel them.
  • Scaling the Metcon – mental toughness and pacing work – burpees like any movement can be altered
    to increase or decrease pacing – athletes should challenge themselves to gain speed through the workout
    this means taking a smartt approach to row and burpee pace. Aside from that this one is long and
    takes grit. Let’s go!
  • Beginners can take all reps/cal down by 10

Scaling the Metcon:

  • 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
