Heather will also be teaching a Recovery/Mobility Zoom class this Saturday at 9:00am! Just click on the links that are provided on the website.

200 Meter Run

STIMULUS

DESCRIPTION
*Rounds begin every 5 minutes in this simple bodyweight interval workout

*Rounds begin on the 0-5-10-15-20
*Record your time following the second 200 meter run
*Your score is the slowest of the 5 rounds
*We’re looking for these rounds to take no more than 4 minutes – giving you at least 1 minute of rest

*You can jump up or step up out of the burpee
RUN
*See below for run subs
MODFICATIONS

*500 Meter Bike Erg
*20/14 Calorie Schwinn Bike

TEACHING
GRAVITY
*Gravity is your friend on both of these movements today
*Rather than fighting it, let’s use it to our advantage
*Leaning forward at the ankles more aggressively and trying to take more steps can help you run faster with less effort
*In the burpee, don’t resist the way down too much
*Flop down to the ground and do most of your work on the way up
TIPS
*See if you can make your final 3 rounds faster than your first 2 rounds
*This approach will help you start at a strong pace, but one that you can improve upon as you go

DAILY MINDSET

“Shallow people believe in luck and circumstance. Strong people believe in cause and effect”

~Ralph Waldo Emerson

We can choose to believe that life is happening to us, or that we are fully in control.

We could stand by, and wait for life to happen to us. Or, we can choose to believe that we have a say in our own story. That we are the writers of our own script.

Life is a direct reflection of the choices that we make. That the good, bad, ugly, and everything in between is a direct result of our actions. It’s a cop-out to believe that chance is what makes the great, great. If we can train ourselves to truly believe that everything is by choice, opportunity opens.
