FOR THE COACH

Stimulus 

• Workout brief: https://youtu.be/bzkIPuevljU
• Resource Links: CompTrain Gym Resource Drive
• We have a long and steady effort workout today. Other than potentially breaking up the double unders we should be moving consistently and at a pace that doesn’t force us to rest. Looking for sub 5:00 per round.
• Double Unders: :60 or less
• Lunge: Unbroken. :60 or less
• Run: 2:00 or less 
• Sit-ups: :60 or less

‍

The One | Teaching Focus 

Double unders 

• Great day to practice double unders or get more proficient with single unders. 

‍

Through Line 

Feet 

• Double unders, keep the feet stacked under the body and bound off the ball of the foot. 
• Lunge, take a large enough step in order to get the full foot on the ground and then drive through the heel to stand. 
• Run, keep the strikes of your stride under your center of mass and not out in front of you. 
• Sit ups, drive your feet into the ground as you sit up. 

‍

Modifications

Double unders 

• Reduce volume 
• Set time for practice
• Single unders 
• Plate/line hops 

Lunges 

• Reduce load 
• Reduce volume 
• Stationary step back lunge

Run

• Reduce distance 
• Sub machine 

Sit ups 

• Reduce volume 
• Band assisted sit ups 
• Hollow rocks 

‍

Logistics

• Make sure your room is set up prior to the start of your class so that you can manage the flow of the workout. You’ll want to ensure that athletes can do sit ups and double unders in one location and that it doesn’t interfere with the walking lunge path.
• When running in a workout we want to ensure that all athletes run the same route by marking a start and finish route.

Mindset 

“Stay committed to your decisions, but stay flexible to your approach.” - Tony Robbins

We can’t always see what is ahead on the windy road.

We don’t know if there will be a lightning storm, a massive oak tree blocking us, or maybe it’s road construction pushing a lengthy detour. All of which can cause a change in our planned arrival time.

‍

Direction without flexibility is a recipe for disaster, trying to force a path that may not be possible. Yet flexibility without direction is just as harmful, living like a leaf blowing in the wind.

‍

It’s not a matter of if, but when, we hit the roadblock and will need to adjust our route. But the destination does not change. Dedicated to the “what” we’re after, but flexible in the how.
