White Board Chat:
Getting fancy today with an ascending rep scheme using the Fibonacci sequence. We have complementary functions featuring some hip and abdominal flexion in the sit up, and then hip extension in the the box jump so neither movement should fatigue the other, which will allow us to go faster. Our set of 21 on the strict sit ups should take us no longer than 1 minute to complete and the same goes with our box jumps, even though they are the final set. As always, we highly encourage stepping off the box as opposed to rebounding due to the increased potential risk that exists for an Achilles/calf injury. So if we want to rebound, please make sure we have followed the full warm up below to make sure we are ready to go.
