Coach's Notes.
Standard Team WOD start time at 0600! Linkup at the track early for warm up and we'll do a quick WOD brief and form teams around 0550 to start at 0600. If you need a partner for another time then post to comments.
So this one requires some partner coordination. The goal is to have the partners alternate every other rep of burpees. So Athlete A does the first burpee, while Athlete B is walking/positioning himself or herself right next to their partner. When Athlete A lands on the track at the completion of burpee broad jump #1, then Athlete B is right next to them at the same spot and drops into burpee #2 but not until the first partner lands the broad jump. When Athlete B then lands at the end of their burpee broad jump, Athlete A begins burpee #3 right next to where Athlete B completed burpee #2. And so on.
Just take turns burpeeing and it should all work out.
COACH'S CLINIC -- We will huddle at the track immediately afterwards. For any new trainers planning to support the 17 Aug on-ramp (or ANYONE interested in becoming a trainer) we will talk through how we run IMCF on-ramps, review the basics of managing a small group effectively, and answer any questions you have to help you prepare. Next Friday, we'll do the same but the focus will be breaking into small groups and rehearsing delivery on teaching the 9 foundational movements. You don't have to be an L1 to attend. Coach's clinics are our way of honing our craft as trainers and ensuring the quality of our instruction at training events. Look forward to seeing new faces. ~Andy
Training Videos.
- The Pocket Gymnast talks about how the burpee can act as a skill transfer exercise for other movements. This is only part 1 but if you look below the video you will see he has a 6 part series on the applicability of the burpee to numerous other movements. See, we don't just do 'em because they suck.
- And some folks burpee for a mile just to say they did. Any takers for Friday morning?
