STRATEGY
GENERAL
A good question to ask yourself before starting this workout is, “”How fast can I go in round 1 without having to slow down in round 2?””
With simple movements, we want to push the intensity here – but not so much that things slow down dramatically in rounds 2 and 3
The way you get fitter and get the best time you can is to hold fast, but sustainable rounds across the board today
Keep an eye on your round times and evaluate how you paced things out following the workout
