For the Coach

Resource Drive

Workout Overview

Stimulus

This workout builds aerobic capacity and midline stamina, while reinforcing coordination under fatigue. As the running volume decreases, you will be challenged to maintain or even increase your pace as you get into the later rounds.  

Scoring

Score: Time

Movements

Intended Intensity: RPE 6-7 

Fitness Attribute Improved: Aerobic Power [Lactate Threshold]

Target Score: 20-26 Minutes 

Choose distances that allow you to complete the runs in about 8-4-2-1 minutes, respectively. Choose reps and variations that allow you to complete a round of sit-ups and double unders in 2:00 or less.

The One | Teaching Focus

Range of Motion: 

  • Cue athletes to touch their shoulder blades to the ground and to have their shoulders pass through their hips each rip. 

Strategies

Start today's workout at an RPE 6 or 7 and maintain that same PACE through the 800m run. 

Once you are past the 800m run, you are over halfway done. See if you can increase your pace slightly. The best way to do this is to find places to move more efficiently.

Look For

  • Run: Shoulders should be relaxed and not hunched.
  • Check for symmetry in shoulder movement.
  • AbMat Sit-Ups: Observe athletes' core engagement throughout the movement.  They would use the core to sit up, rather than the hip flexors. 
  • Double Unders: Athletes hands should be down and slightly in front of them.

Nikola Tesla 

"Our virtues and our failings are inseparable, like force and matter. When they separate, man is no more." 

Strengths and weaknesses are intertwined; they define who we are as individuals.
