SWIM CLUB Today’s session is active recovery with a twist. You can swim as slow and relaxed as you like but you must follow the rules below.Each time you reach the shallow end, you will perform 10x pool get-ups.

Once that 20 seconds is up, rest for 40 seconds then straight into the chin-ups and...

If you don’t have access to this, an alternative is to run for 8, 4, 2 minutes. At the end of each run, immediately move into burpees, then back into running again. Today will be mentally challenging but keep your mind on the prize and push through. Don’t forget to time how long it takes you to get through. WORKOUT : For Time 1600...
