If you’re looking for a great power endurance workout, try this one! It’s very tough because when you failure there is a penalty. Specifically, upon failure you will owe 1 burpee for every meter short of the goal on the SkiErg.
Too often people give up the moment they feel beat – a habit we are currently attempting to discourage in this exercise. Actually, I use penalties often to encourage my athletes not to quit. Also, the penalty add more of a challenge for me and those more driven and intense athletes.
If you have an attitude of “I need it now,” its already too late. Remember to take small steps to make consistent growth.
This workout will teach you to fight the voices of doubt, and go until you physically can’t. I failed around round 16 and could not get the burpees in during the 90sec “rest.” I thought “what crazy rest.” I, however, made sure I hit all of the sets on the SkiErg.
