Coaching Notes, Strategy, and Goals
“Dune” is a gritty, aerobic stamina test that mixes monostructural machines with high-rep bodyweight gymnastics under fatigue. The structure of short work bouts with brief rests demands smart pacing, consistent transitions, and strategic recovery.
Goal: Maintain strong, sustainable efforts across both sets
Row/Ski: RX: 20/16, S: 18/14, A:15/12
Cindy: 3-5 rounds
Bike: RX: 18/13, S: 16/12, A:15/11
Stimulus: Aerobic capacity, muscular endurance, and mental resilience
RPE: 8/10
Consistent output on machines, fast and efficient bodyweight movement on "Cindy"
Key focus areas:
Avoid blowing up early on the row and bike; keep effort manageable
Keep "Cindy" rounds fast but smooth, without burning out on push-ups
Transition quickly and purposefully between movements
