Kyle coaching the lifts in style?!
****Reminder that the gym is closed today. But if you feel inclined to do something, try this*****

SWOD/ Metcon: Max Effort Day
Use a partner to count reps and keep time if possible. Do not try to do all the tests. Try to complete at least 3 - 4 within the hour.  A TRUE max effort should be done when your body is warmed up, but in as rested a state as possible, so trying for all max efforts would be difficult in a short amount of time.

-Max weight from the ground to overhead (any object)
-Max effort 400m run
-Max push ups in a minute
-Max sit ups in a minute (abmat, feet anchored)
-Tabata Squats
-Max consecutive pull ups
-Max double unders
-Max height box jump

Another option is to test your progress on your Year End Goals!

Post results to comments or enjoy your day off!  cc
