When is the last time you tested your baseline? Well today you get the chance. Except since you’re more fit than the first day you walked in here, you’ll do it at least twice. With a running clock (and possibly heats), do the baseline workout. Rest exactly 5 minutes and repeat. If you are fast enough to do BOTH attempts under 5 minutes each, then rest 5 minutes and repeat a 3rd time. If one or both of your attempts were over 5 minutes, then you will only do the baseline twice. Record your fastest score as official, but type the other times in the Notes section. “Baseline” 500m row 40 air squats 30 sit-ups 20 push-ups 10 pull-ups rest exactly 5 minutes. Repeat. If both efforts were under 5 minutes, rest 5 minutes and repeat a third time.

We are kicking off endurance season with a two part work out.  The first part is a baseline test to get a sense for where your times are on the 400M and 800M – we will use these times to measure progress throughout the season.  The second part is to get you moving with “Death By 20M”.  A play on Death By 10M but just a little longer.  For those that aren’t familiar, here’s how it works:   use a continuously running clock and run 20 meters (one length, from cone to cone)  the first minute, run 40 meters the 2nd minute (2 lengths), 60 meters at the 3rd minute… etc.  If you are unable to complete the full amount of work in the minute, take the next minute off and restart.  Your score is the last full round completed. Part A: Baseline test – 400M for time, Full Recovery, 800M...
