Workout Brief

Feel: Triple Threat / Pace: Interval

Move as quickly as possible through the Jump Overs and Kettlebell Swings and slow it down to a sustainable pace on the box movements. Today’s built in rest will be crucial, but it’s not enough to entirely recover. Regulate your intensity early, then push to hold on in later rounds.

Workout Brief

Feel: Muscle / Pace: Gas

Start at a moderate effort and ramp up the pace as you go. The crux of this workout is going to be the Overhead Squats. Break them up early enough that you can keep moving after your forty reps are complete, but hold on long enough that you get them done quickly.
