“Water the flowers, not the weeds.”
Imagine your vision being a water hose.
And wherever your attention goes, you water.
Because whatever we end up watering… grows.
Every day, we are going to spend our water (our thoughts)on something. And there is a finite amount that we get to spend. If we choose to spend it on the weeds, those thoughts will grow stronger. Purely for the visualization, imagine gossip, and where that takes us.
Check in with ourselves today.
Are we watering the flowers, or the weeds?

*Women’s Calories: 34-24-14
Time Cap: 10 Minutes
– Overview: In this couplet, athletes will be challenged to push the pace on 2 movements that very much interfere muscularly with one another. Pacing the row in a way that will allow athletes to push their barbell sets will be key.
– Row: Each row should take no longer than 3:30, 2:30, and 1:30 respectively.
– Deadlifts: Barbell loading should not exceed 65% of your 1RM deadlift. Reps should be completed with no more than one break per round.
– Score: Total time. If capped, add 1s for every incomplete rep.
– Let’s do our best to pace the row in a way that will allow us to hold on for big sets of deadlifts. Aim for 1-2 sets each round.
– While the pace of the row matters less than our sets on the barbell, we should still try to row at a strong pace each round. Aim to complete each row in about 3:00, 2:00, and 1:00 respectively. We can use these time goals as a motivator.

Bike Erg Conditioning

3 Sets:
4 Minute Bike Erg
No Rest Between Sets.
Set 1: RPE 4
Set 2: RPE 5
Set 3: RPE 6
RPE SCALE [Number, Feel, Talk Test]
*0-1 [LITTLE EFFORT]: Talk without constraint.
*2-4 [ACTIVE RECOVERY]: Could have a phone conversation, but the other person would know you’re lightly exercising.
*4-5 [CRUISING PACE]: Talk comfortably, with light to moderate breathing.
*6 [TEMPO PACE]: Talk in short sentences, breathing moderately hard.
*7 [THRESHOLD PACE]: Talk in short phrases, hard breathing.
*8-9 [HARD PACE]: Could say a word here and there between deep breaths.
*10 [MAX EFFORT]: Grunt. Drool. Groan.
– The goal here is to ramp up your speed every 10 minutes during this continuous 30 minute bike effort and finish at a moderate pace. For example, an athlete could complete their first 10 minutes at a 2:20 pace, the second 10 minutes at a 2:15 pace, and the last 10 minutes at a 2:10 pace.
– Set the bike to intervals of 4:00 on/0:00 rest so that you can keep an eye on your average pace as well as your projected meters.
– Score: Enter Meters completed within each 4 minute window.
