Coaching Tips
Strategy
- 1Break deadlifts into manageable sets (e.g., 10 sets of 10 reps) to avoid fatigue.
- 2Plan rope climbs by using technique-strategy (legs vs. arms) to minimize effort.
- 3Manage breath during thrusters to maintain speed; a slight pause at the bottom can help with power generation.
- 4Consider using a moderate pace on kettlebell swings to facilitate good form and avoid overexertion.
- 5For the run, switch the plate between partners to optimize carrying and recovery.
Safety Considerations
Technical Focus
Ensure back positioning in the deadlift and thruster to avoid injury.
