Overview. A long mixed piece. The workout alternates between midline / stability block (Run/OHS/GHD) and a power/gymnastics one (Run/PC&J/Pull-ups). Overall volume: 2000m rowing, TTR, 42 C2B, 30 OHS and 30 PC+J. Smart pacing on the runs and managing yours sets is the key.
Strategy. Hold a steady threshold pace on the rows (do not sprint the first one just to fade on the next one). You want to make a smooth transition to the barbell after each row. Take a breath and pick the barbell up for your set. Aim to keep the OHS unbroken if possible or no more than 2 sets (if the weight is heavier than what you could do for 15 unbroken reps, adjust the weight down). On the TTRs, we are looking for a steady rhythm for an unbroken set.
The 2nd part will be higher heart rate. Quick singles on the PC+J (drop, reset) are likely better than touch-and-go sets here to save the grip for the chest-to-bars. If you’re very confident, you can always mix sets and singles here. Break the chest-to-bars as needed to avoid getting stuck. If you had reasonable pacing on the rows on the 1st round, you should be able to hold close to same pace on the 2nd round.
Instructions.
Debrief. Take 2–3 minutes after the workout to reflect
– How did the different movements feed into/affect the other ones?
– Did you maintain a consistent pace on runs or did you slow down significantly in the 2nd round?
– How were your set breakdowns and rests between sets?
– How were you transitions between movements?
– Name two (2) things that went well and one (1) you’ll improve on next time.
