Go into it with a plan!

What’s Your Plan?

Raise your hand if you go into each workout with a plan on how you’re going to attack it. Is your hand up? It should be! We are big advocates of having a plan for every workout. Factoring in your individual strengths and weaknesses and weighing the workout based on your experience is important. For example, today’s front squats may be heavy for a set of 15 each round for one person where another will feel like that weight is pretty manageable. That means that a different approach on the front squats each round would be important. Going into it with a “I’ll just see how it goes” approach is sometimes appropriate, but most of the time that will lead to a result that isn’t what it could be. Spending a few minutes thinking about the workout and what might work in terms of how to break up sets and reps is worth your time. 

That being said, even the best laid plans can implode quickly. That’s OK! We also need to be able to adjust and adapt along the way. No big deal! But we know from our experience that those with a plan will typically fair better most of the time.

So as you drive to the gym today think about what your approach will be for today’s workout. After you’re done, evaluate how it went and use the experience to learn from. It’ll make you better!
