For the Coach

Resource Drive

Workout Overview

Stimulus

You'll start the workout on the deadlifts and, upon completion, move to the bike. When the 2:00 interval is up, move to the hang power cleans, bike, then double unders, bike, then back to the deadlifts, and so on. Rotate through like this for 15 total rounds (5x at each station) with the goal to accumulate as many bike calories as you can.

Scoring

Score: Total Bike Calories 

Movements

Intended Intensity: RPE 6-7

Target Loading: Light-Moderate (45-55%) 

Fitness Attribute Improved: Aerobic Power [Lactate Threshold]

Target Score: 150-350 Calories 

Pick a barbell weight based on the hang power cleans. This should be a weight you can do in 1-2 sets throughout the workout. All non-bike stations are designed to take less than 1:00, giving you at least equal time on the bike.

The One | Teaching Focus

Bar Stays Close:

Bar must stay close to the body during the pull.

Prevents strain on the lower back and maintains efficiency.

Strategies

Cycle rate will matter a lot throughout this workout. If you can keep a high cycle rate, you will get through the movements quicker, spending less time under tension, and giving you more time on the bike. 

 The prescribed RPE for this workout is not very high at an RPE 6-7. This means when you get to the bike, you will work at a brisk pace that takes effort and focus to hold, but you remain confident that you can hold.

Look For

  • Bike:  Athletes should pay attention to their RPE, it should not be a super hard effort but something they can hold for long periods of time. 
  • Barbell:  Like it was said in the strategy, look for athletes to have a quick cycle rate throughout these sets.
