Info

Welcome to Cycle 2! This next 8 weeks is typically a time that we try to explore a few different fitness modalities. This cycle will take us through our Murph event on Memorial Day. Below are some of the distinctive elements you will see.

-Our strength will be categorized with a single leg strengthening day, 2 days for Oly technique work, a traditional deadlift day, and one day focused on odd object work.
-We will continue with our Zone 2 days, but you will also see a mixture of some endurance type workouts that take the place of our Zone 2 work.
-While we will still use some interval training - the majority of our conditioning will shift to be “AMRAPs" and “rounds for time”, targeting our oxidative energy system.
-Each week should have a sprinkling of calisthenic work (push ups, pull ups, air squats) to prep and ready us for Murph.

This is a fun cycle to explore some new movement patterns, while still valuing the things that have become standard for our fitness methodology.
