CrossFit Hero WOD: Andy
Break Up Reps Strategically: For the thrusters and deadlifts, break the reps into manageable sets from the start. Avoid burnout in the early stages to keep energy for the long haul. For instance, try breaking thrusters into 5 sets of 5, and deadlifts into sets of 10-15.
Pace Yourself on the Run: The 1.5-mile run falls in the middle, so don’t go all-out. Find a steady pace to conserve energy for the second half of the workout. This run is about keeping your heart rate manageable rather than sprinting.
Our Blue Eagle Workout Philosophy
What about thrusters? They are everything except a lower body pull.... except that you have to perform a clean, which is a lower body pull, to start every set. They do not tax our upper body pulling, which is why we pair thrusters with pull-ups in Fran. But almost every movement will overlap with thrusters in some way.
