26.1 is here! …and it’s kinda brutal 😬😅
↗️ Ascending then descending ↘️
Wall balls.
Box jump-overs.
Med ball box step-overs.
12-minute cap.
Let’s be real — most normal humans aren’t finishing this one. And that’s okay. The goal isn’t to sprint to the redline in minute 2 and implode.
👉 Take **planned breaks** — just keep them SHORT.
👉 Be intentional with your breathing — **don’t hold your breath** at the bottom of wall balls or bracing on the box.
👉 Steady, Smooth, Stay alive 🥵
Here’s how to PRIME your body before you attack it:
🔓 **World’s Greatest Stretch** – open up the hips for deep squats + powerful jumps
🔥 **Banded Dead Bugs** – wake up those deep hip flexors that have to stabilize at the bottom of wall balls and the top of every box rep
💪 **Side Plank + Clamshell** – turn on lateral hip muscles so your knees don’t cave when fatigue hits
⚡ **Explosive Squat Jumps** – quick power primer so those first reps feel snappy, not sluggish
This workout will reward control, breathing, and smart pacing way more than reckless intensity.
See you and .star.fitness this weekend. Let’s get after it. 💥
