Only the Good Stuff … Bike & Ski Only

‣
Workout 1

4 Sets of:

3:00 ON // 2:00 OFF of: 40/30 Calorie Bike Erg Max Calorie Ski with time left

Notes: I want for you to have at least :45 on the rower each round. The 40/30 cal bike erg should be at a moderate/hard pace.

Score is calories on the rower each round!

‣
Workout 2

This workout will have 5 different time domain AMRAPS with the same rest between rounds. The cals for Bike Erg will change so pay attention to that!

4:00 AMRAP 50/40 Cal Bike Erg Max Cal Ski with time remaining

4:00 AMRAP (REPEAT OF FIRST INTERVAL) 50/40 Cal Bike Erg Max Cal Ski with time remaining

Notes: Your pacing for the Bike Erg should change by each piece. For instance your 20 cal bike pace and 50 cal shouldn't be the same. Reminder you will come back to the first interval so I want you to compare your first to your last!

Scoring is calories completed for each of the 5 efforts.

‣
Workout 3

5 Rounds of: 500m Ski Erg Rest 1:00 1,000m Bike Erg Rest 1:00

Note: I want you to push it pretty hard. For me I stayed around 1:40-1:43 pace throughout the workout. Effectively holding 85% of my max with minimal rest. You are going to fall off near the end, that's expected! This is a tough one! Grab some friends to join you in it!

Score is the times for each of the 10 separate efforts!

‣
Workout 4

Every 4:00 x 5 Rounds (20:00 Total Time): 20/15 Cal Bike Erg 500/450m Ski

Notes: Rest with time remaining in the 4:00 intervals. Aim to have 1:00 rest each round. If you don’t have that then please drop the Ski Erg by 50m until you do.

‣
Workout 5
