hey Coach……this was a great FMP, total time was about 2 hours, 10 minutes. Scaled the swim down to 2,000 yards, mostly due to the pool being overcrowded with kids. Did the runs with a light ruck, carrying my swim gear.
I think the fictitious scenarios give the athlete doing the FMP a little extra motivation. It’s not just simply exercising, you have a goal in mind, which helps you push through to the end.
Pretty cool post. I just found your site and wanted to say
that I’ve really liked browsing your posts. Anyway
I’ll be subscribing to your feed and I hope you post again soon!
great workout, the best one i have seen anywhere in a while will do tomorrow. As an aspiring triathlete but operator in the CCT commnuity what in your opinion is the best way to balance tri workouts(heart rate zone and all that jazz) and strength and conditioning? I follow gym jones and mtn and military athlete and your website. i am in the best shape of my life but just looking for some extra input from a professional. thanks.
dude out.
This was my first time doing a FMP workout. What a great workout, thanks Coach for putting these together.
Compleated as rx’d, total time for the entire workout without stopping my watch was
2hrs 28mins.
I agree with sandwich that having the fictious scenario really made me feel like I was working toward something more. Thanks again.
Hey Coach, finally got this done. In all, it took me two hours and 32 minutes. Still slow on the run, especially the second one. I have admittedly been slacking on squats and lunges, and since ski season ended, it’s starting to show. But overall, I think I managed my time pretty well – perhaps I could have done a few things better.
Thanks for the workout, coach!
I’ll be doing this soon. However, it appears as if there is a 3.5 mile run that has been overlooked in phase II. Would this be correct?
DOPP-
Good eye. Assume the beach insert point and the beach extract point are different locations. Looking forward to seeing your mission stats.
Coach
Creative, cool
DNF: Skipped final swim
Felt very bad physically on 4.5 mile run. Had to walk 3 times. Did run in 100+ degree heat. Felt cramps in chest and kidney areas. Felt a bit chilled during run. Heart elevated to 100+ for a couple of hours after. Slept horrible.
Total Time: 1:53:40
2000y Swim: 36:16 (crawl stroke w/fins. don’t know side stroke.)
Transition: 5:25
1m run: 7:31
Lunges/squats: 3:40
push/sit: 11:24
4.5m run: 49:24
2000y swim: DNF
Will come back to this and do in the lake. Should be able to do swim in 30 min. without all transitions and people in pool. Will prepare better with nutrition and hydration.
