20/15 Calories of Assault Bike or 28/21 Calories Rowing
400 Meter Run
20 Push Presses (115/75 lbs)

Your pace for this effort should be aggressive and challenging to maintain each set. We're looking for consistent times across all five sets, so you'll need to hold something back on the first couple of sets and ramp up your RPE to give full effort to make your desired paces the last two sets. Athletes should have at least 90 seconds of rest between sets, and preferably more than two minutes. If you find yourself falling behind those goals, please adjust the distances or repetitions to maintain the intended stimulus.
