As the time windows decrease (10-7-4), so do the run distances and weights on the barbell
Your score for each round is total reps on the barbell
We’ll rest 3 minutes between rounds and change out weights
RUN
If your best mile is above 8:30, reduce the distances to 1200-600-300 meters respectively
This gives you enough time on the barbell for each round
