SESSION NOTES
Overview. This triplet tests your ability to hold your pace while managing rising heart rate and fatigue. This movement combo will get you breathing hard from the 1st round. The challenge is executing smooth and repeatable rounds, not red-lining early.
Strategy. Start the first run at a pace you can hold onto on later rounds. Aim for thrusters to be unbroken or no more than 2 sets. Don’t rush them, find a good rhythm and breathe through the set. On chest-to-bars, go for 1-3, consistent, sets (rather break early than get stuck later). Use the transitions to recover: walk the last meters of the run before thrusters, take a breath before chest-to-bars but get straight back into the run after.
Instructions. Set up equipment 2-3m apart to allow for smooth transitions (this is your built-in rest).
Debrief.
– Did your pacing on the runs support the other movements?
– Which movement got challenging first, and why?
– Were your round times consistent?
– What one small change would make you more efficient next time?
Movement options.
Run → 500m Row or SkiErg, 1000m BikeErg
Thrusters → 61/43kg (135/95lbs), 52.5/35kg (115/75lbs), 43/30kg (95/65lbs), these should be fairly heavy weights that you can still finish in no more than 2 sets each round.
Chest-to-bar pull-ups → reduce reps to 12 → Regular pull-ups (12 or 16) → Jumping pull-ups (12 or 16)
