COACHES NOTES
The way this one works is you'll move for 1 minute through whichever movement you choose, then for 30 seconds you'll knock out as many rows as you can (whichever variation you choose). Then you'll rest for 30 seconds before starting it all over again.

The key for this workout to be effective is to PUSH YOURSELF during the 1 minute of movement. Get uncomfortable. Then immediately transition to the rows and work to accumulate 10-15 reps each round, knowing you'll get some rest before you have to push again.

1 MINUTE OF CONTINUOUS MOVEMENT
You will choose from a jog/run, row, bike, taps, single unders (jump rope), or low step ups. Whichever you pick, you will perform until 1 minute is complete. You may change which movement you pick from round to round.

The goal is to move for the entire minute each time at a consistent but uncomfortable pace! Push yourself!!!!

TRX/RING ROW
Grab the handles or rings and lie back until your elbows lock out completely. Just remember that the more parallel your body is to the ground - the more difficult these become. You can step forward to make them more challenging or backward to make them more accessible. Keep the body rigid and belly tight - and pull all of the way to your chest at the top. Keep your elbows close to your sides and lock them all the way out at the bottom each time.

If you don't have access to TRX or rings, swap these out for bent over rows or even single arm bent over rows!

- OR -

BENT OVER ROW
Start standing with the dumbbells at your sides. Set up by lowering the dumbbells to just below the knee - make sure you're keeping your back flat, chest proud, and belly tight. From here, keeping the torso position set and the chest lifted - pull the elbows back and bring the dumbbells to just below the chest. Keep the belly tight. Bring the dumbbells back to just below the knee with the arms straight at the bottom. No kipping or pulling your CHEST down!
