Day 159 of 360
Farmer carry begins at the top of the 6th deadlift. Move quickly and in excellent positions, and maximize rest through smart breathing and focus on the remaining tasks at hand.
Scaled to ability = Each rep/ set/ movement poses a significant challenge for each athlete’s individual skill level; Put in what you expect to get out.
Then:
If/when rest is needed, keep it short and specific (3-5 breaths/ :15 sec.). No lazy reps.
Weight for lunge may be carried in any organized manner you choose with the exception of barbell in the back rack. Scale method of carry and implement to skill level at designated weight.
And then, for max calories:
Breathe, focus, and drive. This is a sprint, not a jog- no pacing. Goal is matching output from previous outing; Matching effort should go without saying.
And finally, “Time under tension”:
Brace as needed with non-working arm, and switch arms as needed. Work to “True” failure (loss of physical positioning) not “Relative” failure (loss of mental endurance). If time reaches two minutes, you may stop if desired. If time is under two minutes, do it again, and accumulate at least two total minutes.
