October 2021 Benchmark Workout

“Nancy”

5 rounds for time of:

  • 400m run
  • 15 Overhead squat

20:00 time cap

Notes

Our benchmark workout for October is the classic couplet, “Nancy”. Your score is the time to complete the 5 rounds or the number of rounds and reps completed under the 20-minute time cap.

If you cannot maintain a pace of at least 2:30/400m, considering adjusting the distance to 300m.

The overhead squats should be at a light weight that allows you to complete the 15 reps unbroken each round.

Don’t start out too fast here. Aim for consistent splits across all 5 rounds.
