Post time to comments.
Stimulus and Strategy:
Today’s workout revisits a 2012 Regionals event. On the rower, focus on your breathing and maintaining a tall posture. Use the opening few hundred meters to settle into your pace. This shouldn’t feel like a 2K PR attempt, but continue to push the pace as best as you can throughout.
Stay smooth and controlled on the single-leg squats to minimize missed reps. The barbell loading should feel moderate to heavy, allowing for consistent sets of 3-5 unbroken hang power cleans. Manage your sets with short, deliberate breaks as needed. Opening with overly aggressive sets will only lead to long rest periods later in the workout.
