FOR THE COACH

Stimulus 
  • Workout brief: https://youtu.be/1uK05B-JBFc
  • Resource Links:  CompTrain Gym Resource Drive
  • We've got a big conditioning piece here with total body Push and total body Pull movements. Not much room for rest and breathing will quickly become a factor because both movements spike our heart rate quickly if we lose control early on. We’re looking for 2:00 or less each round.
  • Score | Sum total of rounds + reps 
  • Wallballs | :60 or less
  • Row | :60 or less

Teaching Focus 
  • Work hard, rest, repeat 
  • Athletes should try to reduce rest and transition time between movements. With a big rest between each 9:00 interval we'll be mostly recovered by the time the second interval starts. Encourage athletes to keep output as high as possible and to repeat this both rounds. They should finish the final 2:00 of each round at a or near a maximal effort.

Look For

  • Row | Sequence of pull. Cue the athlete to finish the extension at the leg before pulling with the arms. Pay attention to the athlete’s stroke rote. Help them be efficient with an appropriate balance of power per pull with an appropriate stroke rate.

Mindset 

“All progress depends on the irrational person.”

The initial thought that a human being could run a sub 4:00 mile was absurd. Another ridiculous initial thought: let’s put human beings in a giant metal tube and hurl them into outer space.

Yet someone went against the grain, and did things differently than the status quo. And accomplished the impossible.

We know that change is uncomfortable. It has to be. And we welcome it, the mistakes and fumbles that come along with it, and seek out more. In the words of Epictetus, “If you want to improve, be content to be thought foolish, and stupid.
