Baby Kong

Sometimes pacing is about saving just enough “umph” to peak at the end of a workout.  This is often the case with simpler, lighter movements that you’re not too worries about failing.  On an entirely different level, sometimes it’s about keeping yourself enough below your red line to be successful with hard, heavy and technical movements so as to not waste energy failing reps.  Today is the later.

Baby Kong is a version of King Kong (a monster of a workout that is super heavy).  This version will be plenty challenging to Rx.  Pick weights and scales that are hard, that will force you to be present all the way through or risk failing.  And then don’t fail.
