WHITE BOARD BRIEF
Target time | 1:30-2:00 rounds
Today’s running workout balances out yesterday’s clean and jerk lifting day with a monostructural metabolic-conditioning workout.
We’ll run 400 m and rest exactly 3:00 between rounds. This means you’ll add 3:00 to the clock when you finish each run and begin the next round at the time you came up with.
Rounds should fall between 1:30 and 2:00. If you can maintain at least 3-4 rounds at this pace, shoot to tackle this RX’d. If a 400-m run will push closer to 2:30 for most rounds, scale the distance to fit the intended stimulus.
Hold back a little on the first 2 rounds and pick up the pace from there. If you do this right, the challenge should hit around the fourth or fifth round.
