During this time, we want athletes to focus on the proper setup, core engagement, and footwork in the catch position. Take some time and have athletes practice with PVC/Empty barbells.
Beginner athletes should still stay light and work on
consistency.
Focus on strong and active shoulders while driving out of the squat with a tall/stable mid-line.

STIMULUS and GOALS
Stimulus is a moderate effort across the entire AMRAP. Athletes should maintain pacing on box step-ups and v-ups that will allow for consistent effort when moving through the lunge. Many athletes will be tempted into going too hard in early rounds, resulting in early leg fatigue and over-resting.
It will be 15 minutes of straight leg pump and gut punches. Be smooth through each station, breathe and try to establish a pace within the first two rounds that’s sustainable.
