-Got a mix of “Diane” and “Isabel” for a challenging couplet to start the day. If you struggle with HSPU, a more conservative pace on the barbell (steady singles) should help save the shoulders and heart rate. For “higher level” athletes this should be fast and aggressive. For the rest of us, we’ll likely need to pick an area to modify and pick a movement to focus in on. That could be lighter Snatches to hit sets of HSPU, or sticking with a more difficult weight and switching to pike push ups or another HSPU modification.

-There is a lot of time between the end of the metcon and the start of this piece. There is a great opportunity to coach Snatch cycling since the athlete will be fully warmed up. Bring the bars back to empty and drill full ROM “T&G” reps, then allow them to rebuild to a starting weight for the timed portion.

-The Jump Rope will spike the heart rate, there’s not a lot that can be done to change that other than focusing on being as efficient as possible. Hop right on to the bike and push the pace until about :30 remaining in that given window, then back it down to get ready to start the next window
