 Coach’s Notes 

  • Perform each movement with proper form and technique.
  • Start with a weight that challenges you but allows you to complete the prescribed number of repetitions with good form. Gradually increase the weight as you get stronger.
  • During Metabolic Conditioning pieces, aim to maintain an intensity that elevates your heart rate and challenges your aerobic capacity. 
  • Prioritize the warm-up before each workout to increase blood flow to the muscles and reduce the risk of injury. Similarly, cool down with mobility work and stretching to aid in recovery and maintain flexibility.
  • Listen to your body and adjust the intensity or duration of exercises as needed. Rest and recovery are crucial for preventing overtraining and optimizing performance.
