WHITE BOARD BRIEF

Target time | 6:00-10:00

This double barbell workout is going to pack a strong metabolic punch. Expect the heart rate to be high and to feel slow and weak after the first few rounds.

We’re looking to be able to finish the workout around 10:00. This means that your rounds will have to be less than 1:30, on average, to finish in that time domain.

We want to use a load that feels challenging. The bar should feel heavy, but you should be able to just skirt by with what you have. To find that load, we want to see a full unbroken round of hang power cleans and lunges in the warm-up.

As soon as you finish the workout, athletes will rest 1:00 before the 4:00 clock begins. You’ll have 4:00 to accumulate as many 5-ft increments of handstand walking as possible. We need athletes to be able to consistently do 5-ft without falling to tackle this as prescribed. If we can’t we’ll scale to some other handstand drill that works on skill. Expect for this to be very challenging after the workout… and that’s what we want!

Before the workout, we’ll retest a strength from a few weeks ago and build to a heavy 4-rep lunge from the floor. This should make the lunges in the workout feel much easier.
