• Coaching Notes

We are getting after a re-test from a couple months ago here with the classic mixed mono couplet “Jerry”. We should spend some time today working on rowing and running mechanics to start the day prior to letting them blast off here. If you did this in the gym a couple months ago we want you to take a different strategy on this one and see if it pays off. The workout will be spent mostly on the run, so pushing the pace here makes sense, but if you came out hot and died in the second half, maybe today is the day to pace things out and have you feeling smooth on the rower in order to set yourself up for a final kick. This workout should allow time for some added accessories today, but if not spend the extra time on the PRVN Yoga Flow.
