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

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
