Overview. A workout with 4 rounds that rewards consistent pacing, settle into a pace and stay consistent. Use the SkiErg to pace the effort. Make a plan for the other three movements that will allow you to keep short transitions and start the next movement right away. Make sure to choose a weight on the clean and jerk that you can keep moving with.
Pacing. Try to make the last round faster than the first one. If you go too fast in the first two rounds your overall time will suffer. Aim to start conservatively and increase your pace in the final two rounds.
The only thing that should change between the rounds is your SkiErg pace. If you start too fast try to recover on the SkiErg so you can attack the rest of the movements as fast as you did last round. Aim to keep the box step ups unbroken all 4 rounds, breaking once is fine if it’s a short break. If you break more than once you need lighter DBs or go way slower on the SkiErg. Double-unders unbroken if you can, try to not have planned breaks, just take a small breather if you trip up. Have a routine for the c&j (e.g. always pick it up the bar right away, take two breaths between reps, count 3-5 seconds between reps etc.). If you need more than 20 seconds between reps then the bar is too heavy or you are going too fast in the other parts of the workout.
