1) “Warm Up”: Bike 20 minutes at a warm-up pace.
We are doing three sets of back squats at twenty-one reps each.
Choose a weight that you feel you can handle comfortably for
twenty-one reps of regular back squats. These specialized
movements are tough! Make damned sure you warm-up thoroughly
with “air squats” and stretching first.
2) “Power squat”: Lower and rise as quickly as you can while
maintaining PERFECT form. Repeat 20 times.
3) “Bottom to bottom”: Lower to full squat position
(thighs parallel to floor), hold for a full ten seconds,
rise and immediately upon full extension of hip and leg return
to bottom and hold for ten seconds. Repeat 20 times.
4) “Super slow”: Take twenty seconds to reach bottom and
twenty seconds to reach top again. Repeat 20 times.
5) Finally, how long can you maintain a 2:00 min. 500-meter pace average?
Set the rower for “Avg 500 meter pace” and stop and record the time at
the instant you fall under the 2:00 minute average
(2:00 for men and 2:10 for women).
