Workout of the Day EMOM AMRAP

💪 Consistency is Key

It's conditional (and some hypertrophy y'all!) Today's workout is all about consistency. Think of it like a challenge to maintain steady performance through all five rounds. The idea is to pace yourself in the first round so you can sustain your energy and keep up your numbers in the rounds that follow. It's not about going all out from the start and falling off throughout the workout, but about holding on and finishing strong.

🚴 Maximize Your Moves

In today's EMOM + AMRAP hybrid, there’s no downtime between movements, so strategy is everything. If you’re more comfortable with a particular exercise, like biking or squats, transition early to make the most of your time there. Remember, the goal is to keep a steady pace, not just power through at top speed. Consistent reps across rounds will help you finish feeling accomplished, not exhausted.

🧘 Focus on Form

We’re diving deep into technique today, especially with a finisher move that might be new to many— the candlestick and the L-Hang! These exercises are all about control and core engagement. Keep your glutes tight and your pelvis tucked forward to keep pressure off of your low back and to work the core like we want to! And don't forget to breathe! These moves take time to learn so practice each step. This not only makes the movement safer but also more effective, helping you build strength and stability in the long run.

⏱️ Adapt and Achieve

No matter your experience level, there’s a way to make this workout work for you. Whether you’re scaling down reps, modifying movements, or adjusting the intensity, the key is to push yourself within your limits. Don’t be afraid to make adjustments—what matters most is staying consistent and making each round count.
