Throw back to the 2017 Summer Throwdown

SUMMER THROWDOWN COMPETITORS:
I highly recommend you rest or use today as an active recovery day. Feel free to come in and row, bike, jog, do some ROMWOD and some dynamic movement. Review the workouts and strategize how YOU are going to approach them (don’t worry about what your partner will be doing since you don’t know who it’ll be. 😉

Physical Prep: Training wise, you are as prepared as you’re going to get. It’s time to focus on recovering well for Saturday. We recommend people take an active rest day tomorrow (Friday).  Get your blood flowing, but nothing too crazy: some Assault Bike, Rowing, Running, RomWOD are all great options. And do your best to get a full night of quality sleep!
Eating and Drinking:  As always, be sure you are hydrating well a full day in advance of the competition.  Be sure to eat well the day before and plan your meals or snacks for competition day. Maybe up your carbs a bit. It’s not the time to try any new foods or supplements.

Mental Prep: Get your mind right. Pray, meditate, or whatever it is you do to get in a positive state of mind. Give your full effort and have some fun!
