2. Strength Prep
Athletes will be working back and forth between tempo bench press and high box jumps. Tempo for bench press is a 3 sec negative and 1 second push (contraction) portion. High box jumps should be challenging but not the max height that was established in the test week. Aim for a height that is around 6″ lower than their max rep height.

STIMULUS and GOALS
The stimulus is a moderately-high intensity. Athletes should find and maintain a steady push pace on the bike (pushing in the last 10-15 calories of the final bike) with strategic, consistently near-unbroken, breathable dumbbell snatches. Giving a heavy emphasis on breathing with all of these movements will aid athletes in their pacing.
Transition on and off the bike while getting right to work on the dumbbell.
