Urgent but sustainable; breaks are planned before form breaks.

  • - Score: finish time. Finish in 11-16 min, or record reps completed at cap.
  • - Break early into planned sets; a short planned break beats a long forced break.
  • - Run pace should support the next movement; the score is won by consistent splits, not the fastest first run.

One continuous round: raise your heart rate, open the joints today's workout uses, then rehearse the first movements light.
