  4. Evan, 2 question I hope you can help me with for blue program:

    1. I guess you will hardly ever program airbike due to availability. We happen to have them and it would be a shame not to use them. Exchange rowing to AB on the lactic sessions?

    2. On which day of the week would you recommend AM Z1 work?

    1. Hey Ronny,
      As a reference I do not write the Blue program, Ryan Hughes does, but I can answer those questions for you,
      1. AB/AD's will be programed, though they haven't shown up yet (aside from testing). If possible i'd advise against switching the selected modality on a given day as each is programed for a specific reason/ fit into the structure in an intended way (obvious exceptions would be when AB/AD's are programmed and one doesn't have access).
      2. I'd without a doubt recommend it on thurs/sunday "rest days". While it will be programmed into Gold on given days, it will not be mandatory for blue as the program doesn't require doubles. However, you can include it any day of the week as long as you keep it Z1 (i.e.- if you're going 30m, pick a pace you can sustain for 90- this isn't a set rule, its just a reference of where the intensity should lie). If you add it in- take note of how it effects training later in the day/ on subsequent days. Even though the intensity is low it is still training volume/ a stress so it can have negative effects if done to much. I'd start with adding it on 1-2 days per week for 20-30 minutes, let that be a baseline for a bit, then adjust as needed.
      3. Running hates you too. Just kidding. Or am I?

    This was my first time running since I injured my foot in yoga a couple weeks ago. Was able to keep a pretty easy pace and not burn out after each round. The first half was kind of awkward. Haven't used such a light kettlebell in a while and never done burpees without jumping at the top. Those definitely took a little while to adjust. As for the second half, I was just pretty winded, despite only going ~80%. Took about 5-10 seconds before each set of double-unders so I could catch my breath and focus. Tripped up once on my first and last set of DU's on the 4th round, probably because my calves were a little tired from all the running. Besides that, the other 4, as well as the rest of the movements in the workout, were performed unbroken.

    I forgot my custom rope and was getting tangled in the borrowed one frequently. My DUs aren't perfect, but I felt as if this was holding me back from completing more rounds.

    Felt pretty good about the workout. Working at 80% allowed me to maintain my pace the whole way through.

    My 400 run included a run up 5 flights of stairs so that really effected my time. Very tired today as well, possibly due to a meat head chest workout prior to this WOD.
