Coaching Tips
Strategy
- 1Pace yourself on the run; it's the first movement that sets the tone for the workout.
- 2Focus on fluid transitions between movements to save time. For example, try to start your lunges as soon as you finish the run.
- 3Keep your lunges unbroken if possible, but if you need to rest, take short breaks (no more than 3-5 seconds) to minimize disruptions to your flow.
- 4For sit-ups and push-ups, maintain a steady rhythm. Break them into smaller sets if needed to avoid fatigue.
- 5During kettlebell swings, engage your core and ensure your back is straight to maintain good form.
- 6Complete burpees efficiently by focusing on a good jump over the kettlebell rather than wasting energy.
Safety Considerations
Technical Focus
Maintain proper form during lunges and kettlebell swings to avoid knee and back injuries.
